We have fought to protect and expand the legal rights and true access for everybody to choose if, when, and how they want to start, raise and support their family. Now, we aim for continuous improvement in centering communities most impacted, being meaningful and unapologetic about our engagement, and building capacity across the state. Transformational work must occur in coordination and coalition with partners from underrepresented and diverse communities and community-of-color-led organizations in order to address intersectionality. In this critical time, we need to know when to lead from the front, and when to step back, so that our powerful cross-movement work can grow stronger, bolder and more expansive than ever.   We are looking for a leader who has the passion, drive and know-how to take us there.  In this role, your vision is fueled by your passion for our mission. You are excited (not stymied) by our multifaceted nonprofit (c3, c4, PAC) organizational structure. You have proven ideas about building, growing and leading a team; and the acumen to balance long-term strategic plans with the immediate day-to-day intricacies of a small nonprofit, along with the programmatic operations of a statewide powerhouse. You are ready to fundraise, work in politics, interface with the media - and have the skills to navigate all these systems with diplomacy, tact and flexibility. You demonstrate your commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion without jargon and with concrete action. You can act fast, with urgency; and you are practiced at the kind of slow, engaged listening that builds authentic partnerships. While you will be identified as the public face, the spokesperson, and the organizational leader, you’re not in this alone. You have a team -- paid and volunteer -- that is similarly committed to the mission and associated activities.  NARAL Pro-Choice Oregon staff has experienced, new, and vacant positions -- allowing you to rely on a wealth of experience, the ability to shape plans with new vision, and the freedom to build out the team in a way that best supports your vision.   Of course, in a nonprofit organization, you report to the board of directors. NPCO’s volunteer leadership at this level is comprised of a c3 board (Foundation), a c4 (Affiliate), and a PAC -- collectively, a badass group of pro-choice champions who want to see you succeed and are ready to help you shine.  13,000 statewide members engage with NPCO in a multitude of different ways -- volunteering in the community, attending events, showing their pro-choice pride in action and through their personal/public media, and giving philanthropically. Our appreciation is deep and broad. And with 7-in-10 voters agreeing that Roe should remain the law of the land, we seek to find ways to further engage and grow our membership. Our partner organizations and our connections with key decision makers help us build coalitions that truly allow us to do our best work. Working as a team, we can all contribute our unique expertise and come out stronger together. Here are the brass tacks: The Executive Director is responsible for the programmatic, financial and administrative management of NARAL Pro-Choice Oregon and its affiliated organizations. In addition to overall responsibility and implementation of organizational goals, programs and day-to-day operations, and an annual operating budget of approximately $1Million, the Executive Director is expected to play a strong, visible, and strategic role in building and promoting statewide relationships among elected leaders, coalition partners, members, funders and the communities we serve throughout Oregon. The ED is the primary liaison and support for the Boards of Directors, and recruits and supervises a talented staff team of approximately 5 full- and part-time staff and consultants.  We seek a visionary, a creative problem-solver, a fun and compassionate connector, a savvy diplomat, a proven listener, a trusted leader, a responsible pacesetter who can leverage NARAL’s rich history and strategic plan with our Board, staff, and partners to develop and implement an inspiring vision to propel NPCO ever forward.  If this is you, or someone you know, please check out the full position description and apply today.   Position Details, Compensation and Benefits This is a full-time, permanent position based out of our Portland office.

ABOUT THE FAIRNESS PROJECT While Congress and state legislatures across the country remain paralyzed by partisan disagreement, ballot initiatives provide a path forward for improving the lives of millions of Americans. The Fairness Project (TFP) incubates, funds, and provides strategic and technical assistance to state- and city-based ballot initiative campaigns and drives a national narrative to elevate issues of economic fairness. Through ballot initiatives, TFP offers voters the opportunity to do what politicians cannot or will not: take direct action to enact sound policy and change their own lives.    In its first four years, TFP has won 16 out of its 17 ballot campaigns and changed the lives of over 15 million people.   In the 2018 election cycle, TFP worked with state-based groups on ballot measures to raise the minimum wage in Missouri and Arkansas; provide paid sick leave in Michigan; and expand Medicaid in Idaho, Nebraska, and Utah. And they’ve already helped deliver victories in Massachusetts to raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour and in San Antonio where the city council passed earned paid sick time – both in response to ballot initiatives.    In 2017, TFP was a key player in the nation’s first successful ballot campaign to expand Medicaid in Maine, bringing health care to more than 70,000 people.    And in 2016, a historically polarizing election year, TFP partnered with grassroots organizations in six states on ballot initiatives to raise the minimum wage, two of which also guaranteed paid sick and safe leave. The organization’s local partnerships with campaigns in Arizona, California, Colorado, Maine, Washington state, and Washington D.C. ultimately led to higher pay for eight million working Americans and paid sick days for nearly two million. To date, this has put over $9 billion dollars in working families’ pockets.    For more information about The Fairness Project, please visit:  https://thefairnessproject.org     ABOUT THE POSITION To grow our impact, TFP seeks a talented Special Assistant to the Executive Director.
