WHO WE ARE
The Humane League (THL) is a global nonprofit ending the abuse of animals raised for food. THL fosters a high-energy culture of teamwork and mission-driven problem solving, and we have earned recognition as Top Charity from Animal Charity Evaluators for all of their rating periods. Over the past few years, we’ve grown to a staff of 90+ talented individuals dispersed across the country and around the world.
The Open Wing Alliance (OWA) is a global coalition of organizations united in a common goal: to end the abuse of chickens worldwide. OWA was initiated by The Humane League and has since grown into a global force, with 80 member organizations in 63 countries. In addition to launching coordinated global campaigns as a coalition, we share campaign strategies, tactics, and resources around the world to accomplish our shared goal.
YOUR OPPORTUNITY
We are looking for a Global Campaigns Coordinator, accountable for winning global cage-free commitments through corporate campaigns.
The ideal candidate will:
Enjoy regularly doing in-depth research that others may find tedious and that occasionally yields incredible finds;
Be able to persevere for months through long campaigns without much indication that we’re having an impact (that is, until we win!); and
Be comfortable upsetting and receiving angry responses from executives at the target company.
Qualities of a Campaigner:
Relentless - It is important to campaign fast, hard, and where it matters. The pressure must remain consistent and build momentum, preventing the company from ever getting ahead.
Organized - With all of the research, data, action alerts, and communications, it is crucial to remain organized and on top of all that is going on in the campaign.
Efficient - Take advantage of the tools and resources available and work to accomplish more with less.
Innovative - Barriers will come up, and companies will get used to the tactics over time. Being innovative throughout the campaign will create an unpredictable and unmanageable environment for the target company.
Strategic - The right approaches will come as a result of understanding the target company and the current landscape. When each decision is a strategic one, the impact of all decisions can increase .
Collaborative - Global campaigns necessitate working closely with other departments and mobilizing 80 OWA member organizations.
As the Global Campaigns Coordinator, your position plays an integral role in the execution of the tactics and strategies that make up the Open Wing Alliance’s global campaigns. As a campaigner, you will have a deep comprehension of our targets, our primary campaign strategies, and the tools we will use to win. You execute tactics across a variety of media, including email, social media, advertisements, and other digital spaces. You have solid organization and communication skills to mobilize OWA’s member organizations. You are tenacious and motivated to find the key pressure points that will bring us closer to a victory for animals. This position reports directly to the Global Corporate Engagement Senior Manager.
This is a full-time, remote position. This position requires domestic and international travel for OWA summits and staff retreats; this is equivalent to approximately 2-4 week-long trips per year. We are only able to consider applicants who reside in the United States and possess United States work authorization.
This application will close on Friday, April 15, 2022 at 4:30pm.
CORE RESPONSIBILITIES
Conduct research and analysis to help inform what strategies and tactics we use throughout the campaign, what our campaign communications should look like (i.e. slogan, ad language), and the project plan that we follow during the campaign.
Gather and monitor contact information, data, and key details about companies and their executives, including corporate structure, history, leadership and non-leadership, media, affiliations, and any potential branch of the company that can be used in a campaign.
Prepare and execute campaign tactics within the overarching strategy, including (but not limited to) email and social media campaigns, phone-calls with corporate employees, petitions, and placing advertisements.
Work with and support relevant teams to write or otherwise devise campaigning materials including website content, video plans, petitions, advertisements, social media actions, and literature language.
Help plan and maintain the strategic direction and schedule of campaign tactics to deploy.
Collaborate closely with other teams at The Humane League and within OWA to develop and execute various plans for the campaigns, align on goals, and debrief on the progress of our campaigns.
Quickly adapt to changing campaign landscape in order to capitalize on any information you might learn about the target during the campaign.
Coordinate and motivate OWA members across 80 organizations to take action. Lead with “why” to inspire others to get involved. Maintain morale during long and challenging campaigns.
Other duties as assigned.
REQUIRED SKILLS

Efficient - Take advantage of the tools and resources available and work to accomplish more with less. You are self-motivated to set your own schedule and to-do lists, and carry them out in a timely, efficient manner. You are able to identify the high priority and high impact work. You have solid capabilities in the digital space, able to navigate the internet to research hard-to-find information, use various email and social media tools, and troubleshoot tech problems.
Innovative - Barriers will come up, and companies will get used to the tactics over time. Being innovative throughout the campaign will create an unpredictable and unmanageable environment for the target company. You possess creative and analytical thinking skills for developing campaign strategies and tactics.
Strategic - The right approaches will come as a result of understanding the target company and the current landscape. When each decision is a strategic one, the impact of all decisions can increase.

We’re looking for an Account Executive to join one of the best firms in the do-gooder business in our Digital Organizing Practice Area.
When you come work with us, here’s what you’ll find:
Work that is meaningful. We only work with clients who are changing the world. And, we say no to clients if we don’t believe in their cause or if we can’t help them.
Colleagues you can count on. Kind, dedicated, passionate people who bring the smarts, get things done, and help you to do your best, too.
So that’s us. Now about the work:
We run innovative and strategic online advocacy, digital organizing, and electoral campaigns that build grassroots power and create lasting change. We work with progressive groups working on everything from economic justice to climate change to global poverty – think Planned Parenthood, NRDC, big national unions, healthcare advocacy groups, and more. Our electoral work exclusively focuses on outside organizations, not candidate campaigns, because our goal is not just to win an election but to build long-term organizing infrastructure that can hold people in power accountable.
Day-to-day, we’re figuring out how to win elections, drive the narrative, influence policy, hold corporations and politicians accountable, recruit activists, make the most of news moments, and leave no idea unconsidered that might build power. We have a particular focus on developing new models to mobilize infrequent voters of color. We use every tool and tactic in the book, from social media to digital ads to broadcast and 1:1 SMS to virtual phone banks and relational organizing, integrating as tightly as possible with on-the-ground organizing and media advocacy.
Here’s what you’ll be doing in this role:
Serve as the overall project manager for our work with the client, making sure all deliverables are on time and managing staff across teams and skill sets as necessary to get the work done to ensure we’re giving the best possible service to our clients.
Work in a team to help create and drive effective digital organizing campaigns for clients.
Maintain the client relationship by staying in close contact with clients throughout the day via email and phone, leading weekly check-in calls, and occasionally presenting at strategy meetings.
Research and identify how to use (or not use) new tools and technology to advance client goals and keep innovating our practice.
Oversee the drafting and production of broadcast SMS efforts (using tools like Mobile Commons and Phone2Action), peer-to-peer texting (using tools like Hustle and ThruText), and email campaigns (using tools like EveryAction and Action Network).
Distill SMS, email, web, advertising, and social campaign results into the important lessons that could change how a campaign performs.
Work directly with client-side field staff, canvass vendors, peer-to-peer texting teams, and other volunteers to facilitate trainings, provide ongoing recommendations, and build relationships.
Review and/or create agendas, notes, calendars, and data reports for clients.
Do your part to help us run smoothly - including carefully tracking all of your client hours as well as pitching in with small office management responsibilities.
Skills and experiences required for this role:
3-5 years experience, including 3+ years of organizing experience that includes direct organizing (e.g. doing 1:1s, coaching volunteers, field canvassing) and using digital tools to engage and mobilize supporters.
Project management experience holding a variety of stakeholders accountable for important deadlines and materials.
Experience drafting copy for and/or implementing digital strategies (e.g. email, peer-to-peer texting, broadcast SMS, social, advertising) that drive results online, in the field, and with the media.
Understanding of messaging best practices for organizing across channels (SMS, email, paid and organic social, websites, phonebanks, on the doors).
Capability to crunch numbers using spreadsheets and the ability to interpret organizing and digital metrics and translate them into key takeaways.
Demonstrated ability to run meetings to identify project goals and ensure successful outcomes.
Skills and experiences we expect of all M+R employees:
Acute attention to detail.
Ability to prioritize your time to meet deadlines for multiple projects.
Strong ability to write clearly, concisely, and logically.
Proven track record to successfully pick up new skills on the job, including learning new technologies.
Successful experience working in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.
Capability to tackle big projects by breaking them down into smaller pieces.
Ability to see a problem and propose a solution.
Drive to seek what can be improved and offer ways to fix any potential roadblocks.
Understanding of how your words and actions affect others.
Kindness and consideration for others.
Experience bringing a lens of inclusivity to all of your interactions with colleagues.
Passion for the role that your work plays in creating change in the world.
Drive to work collaboratively - soliciting ideas, seeing each other's perspectives, and always doing what you say you will do.
Comfort admitting what you don’t know and recognizing that seeking and receiving feedback is part of the learning process.
Skills and experiences that are preferred, but not required:
Experience organizing with marginalized communities utilizing a strong equity lens and nuanced understanding of power dynamics.
Have worked in an agency setting or at another consulting firm.
Experience working on electoral and/or voter turnout campaigns.
Salary, benefits, and some perks:
This is an exempt, unionized position, represented by the Washington-Baltimore News Guild. The salary is $58,500 with eligibility for an approximate $3,800 year end bonus (dependent on start date and firmwide performance). As part of M+R’s commitment to compensation equity and transparency, we have a no negotiation policy. Salary negotiations can introduce bias and perpetuate wage inequality. Successful staff at M+R have regular opportunities for promotion with accompanying increases in compensation.
We also offer a generous benefits package, plus some perks:
T hree week’s vacation as well as paid sick and personal days;
Generous health, dental, and vision benefits;
401(k) plan with an employer match and quarterly employer profit-sharing contributions;
Professional development stipend;
Flexible Spending Accounts for medical, dependent care, and transit;
Regular brainstorms where we cook up our most creative ideas;
All kinds of benefits depending on which office you’re in (once we're back open!) . Free lunch once a week. Snack breaks. Cold brew coffee on tap. Records and record players.
While our physical offices are closed, we offer reimbursements for cell phones and internet, plus a small monthly working-from-home stipend to make your work-at-home life a bit more comfortable.
The fine print:
Due to COVID, our offices are currently closed. Our primary concern is the care and health of our employees, and will not reopen our offices until it is safe to do so. When M+R reopens its offices, we have a preference for this position to work out of one of the following M+R offices:
1101 Connecticut Ave NW, Washington, DC
11 Park Place, New York, NY
262 Washington St, Boston, MA
1611 Telegraph Ave, Oakland, CA
1275 East 6th St, Los Angeles, CA
If you would prefer not to be based in one of our offices, we will discuss those logistics during the interview process.
To apply, use the button on this page. No calls please.
Of course... M+R is an equal opportunity employer and all applicants will be considered. As a firm we are committed to a diverse and inclusive workplace where we learn and work together to change the world. M+R is strengthened by our staff’s diversity, including race and ethnicity, social class, national origin, culture, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, language, and so much more. We strongly encourage folks from underrepresented backgrounds to apply. About M+R We are communicators, marketers, fundraisers, and campaigners who unleash the power of people to do good. We work exclusively with nonprofits fighting for a just and sustainable world.
