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 100+ talented individuals dispersed across the country and around the world. At THL, how animals are treated in the food system is at the forefront of our everyday work. As such, many of our staff are vegan by personal choice, and all of our THL-hosted events offer fully vegan menus. We welcome all mission-aligned candidates to apply, no matter where you are in your journey to end the abuse of animals raised for food.
YOUR OPPORTUNITY
As Regional Field Organizer, you will work with individuals and groups across multiple states and inspire volunteers to take on leadership roles for THL’s campaign initiatives. You are a dynamic, values-focused person who is ready to motivate others, foster long-term relationships, and train activists in effective grassroots animal advocacy and corporate campaigning.
We want you because you are dedicated to ending the abuse of animals raised for food and are ready to build power to hold corporations accountable—influencing the world’s biggest companies to create and implement animal welfare policies that abolish the worst forms of abuse and reduce the suffering of billions of animals.
You are ideal for this position because you have the ability to be creative and pragmatic, and to shift focus on short notice. You are outgoing and charismatic, and your desire to network with people from a variety of backgrounds leads to meaningful connections. You are comfortable talking to people with differing opinions and can maintain a high level of professionalism under pressure. You are excited to build power by developing volunteer leaders to execute campaign tactics across your region, and you are eager to solicit and provide feedback to constantly improve THL’s effectiveness. You can confidently speak to large crowds and in the media (TV, radio, newspaper, etc.) You possess excellent team-building skills and are motivated to overcome obstacles to expand THL’s reach for animals. This position reports directly to the Senior Regional Organizing Manager.
This is a full-time, remote position. This position requires occasional domestic travel (equivalent to approximately 2-4 trips per year) as well as flexible hours, including occasional weekends.
We are only able to consider applicants who reside in the United States and possess United States work authorization. Preference will be given to candidates who reside in California, Oregon, Washington, Hawaii, Alaska, Arizona, Nevada, Oklahoma, New Mexico, or Texas.

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 100+ talented individuals dispersed across the country and around the world. At THL, how animals are treated in the food system is at the forefront of our everyday work. As such, many of our staff are vegan by personal choice, and all of our THL-hosted events offer fully vegan menus. We welcome all mission-aligned candidates to apply, no matter where you are in your journey to end the abuse of animals raised for food.
YOUR OPPORTUNITY
As Regional Field Organizer, you will work with individuals and groups across multiple states and inspire volunteers to take on leadership roles for THL’s campaign initiatives. You are a dynamic, values-focused person who is ready to motivate others, foster long-term relationships, and train activists in effective grassroots animal advocacy and corporate campaigning.
We want you because you are dedicated to ending the abuse of animals raised for food and are ready to build power to hold corporations accountable—influencing the world’s biggest companies to create and implement animal welfare policies that abolish the worst forms of abuse and reduce the suffering of billions of animals.
You are ideal for this position because you have the ability to be creative and pragmatic, and to shift focus on short notice. You are outgoing and charismatic, and your desire to network with people from a variety of backgrounds leads to meaningful connections. You are comfortable talking to people with differing opinions and can maintain a high level of professionalism under pressure. You are excited to build power by developing volunteer leaders to execute campaign tactics across your region, and you are eager to solicit and provide feedback to constantly improve THL’s effectiveness. You can confidently speak to large crowds and in the media (TV, radio, newspaper, etc.) You possess excellent team-building skills and are motivated to overcome obstacles to expand THL’s reach for animals. This position reports directly to the Senior Regional Organizing Manager.
This is a full-time, remote position. This position requires occasional domestic travel (equivalent to approximately 2-4 trips per year) as well as flexible hours, including occasional weekends.
We are only able to consider applicants who reside in the United States and possess United States work authorization. Preference will be given to candidates who reside in California, Oregon, Washington, Hawaii, Alaska, Arizona, Nevada, Oklahoma, New Mexico, or Texas.

Position Overview
Family Planning 2030 (FP2030) is a global partnership of governments, civil society, multilateral organizations, donors, private sector partners, and researchers committed to supporting the rights of women and girls who wish to use contraception. Our vision is a future where women and girls everywhere have the freedom and ability to lead healthy lives, make their own informed decisions about using contraception and having children, and participate as equals in society and its development. The FP2030 Support Network consists of five hosted regional hubs: North, West and Central Africa; East and Southern Africa; Asia and the Pacific; and Latin America and the Caribbean, and North America and Europe. The FP2030 Support Network is led by an Executive Director, supported by an Executive Directorate team, who reports to the Governing Board. Each Regional Hub is headed by a Managing Director supported by a small team and hosted by an NGO within the region. The FP2030 Support Network is hosted by the United Nations Foundation (UNF), which hosts the North America and Europe Hub (NAE) and the Executive Directorate team.

This strategy aligns FP2030 with global trends supporting gender equality, and helps stakeholders apply existing gender expertise and acquired knowledge to new investments in FP, ultimately boosting their impact.
