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
THL’s Corporate Projects team is looking for an experienced project manager, communicator, and strategic thinker who can propose and test effective new strategies to advocate to a corporate audience for meaningful animal welfare reforms. As Corporate Projects Lead, you will join a team of high-impact advocates who engage with the country’s largest food companies on the most pressing issues affecting farmed animals. Your writing and communication expertise as well as your project management skills will underpin our Corporate Engagement work.
Your position plays a critical role in ensuring that THL can effectively engage with food companies about animal welfare, whether that be through the execution of new strategies, or the creation and management of educational websites, scientific reports, or other media. We want you because you know how to motivate audiences who might not think like you. You have experience managing multiple cross-departmental projects at once. You have a background in advocacy, communication, and strategic problem-solving. You can make decisions independently when faced with uncertainty and limited information. You’re ready to recognize corporations that make progress for animals and call out those that fail to stop cruel practices. This position reports directly to the Corporate Projects Manager.
This is a full-time, remote position. This position provides the opportunity for optional domestic and international travel, equivalent to approximately 1-3 trips per year, for week-long summits and retreats.
We are only able to consider applicants who reside in the United States and possess United States work authorization.
We will be holding a webinar on Wednesday, April 24th at 5:00pm PT/6:00pm MT/7:00pm CT/8:00pm ET for you to find out more about the role and ask any questions you may have. The webinar will be hosted by Michael Windsor, Senior Corporate Projects Manager and Dayne Alexander, Senior Corporate Research Lead. If you’re interested, please register here . As a webinar, you’ll only be able to see the presenter and not others watching. The webinar will be recorded and available here by Thursday, April 25th.
This position will close on Wednesday, May 1st, 2024 at 1:00pm PDT/2:00pm MDT/3:00pm CDT/4:00pm EDT. Late applications will not be accepted; if you are experiencing technical issues, please contact careers@thehumaneleague.org prior to the deadline. Please submit applications and all supporting documents in English.
Your responsibilities include but are not limited to:
Invent, evaluate, develop, and project manage new and innovative strategies—from national reports and cross-departmental projects to individual tools—that will influence corporations and their top executives. Lead collaboration with various teams at THL to execute these strategies.
Author and design strategic resources such as newsletters, websites, case studies, advertisements, and reports to educate corporate executives about animal welfare issues. Collaborate with the Corporate Engagement team to plan the distribution of these materials.
Develop and maintain expertise on corporate communications and marketing strategies used within the food industry. Act as a subject matter expert on effective corporate messaging to other THL departments, volunteers, coalition groups, outside vendors, and other stakeholders; this requires frequent professional communication.
Understand and stay up to date on the broader industry landscape on animal welfare issues and the nuances of the individual animal welfare policies THL is requesting of companies.
Leverage a variety of digital tools and platforms, such as Google Workspace, Asana, Slack, and Salesforce, to keep data and information organized and accessible.
REQUIRED SKILLS
Experience: You have enough professional or non-professional experience with advocacy work (via nonprofit or political campaigns, grassroots activism, environmental or climate activism, or other forms of activism) to demonstrate that you have a strong understanding and detailed knowledge of how to effectively drive systems transformation. You have experience in project management that will allow you to plan and execute complex, cross-departmental projects.
Communication: You have compelling written and verbal communication skills, which will enable you to present THL’s message professionally and convincingly in reports, websites, and other content designed for high level executives and public audiences. In crafting communications, you take into consideration the differing motivations of executives, activists, and the general public.
Strategic thinking: The right approaches will come as a result of deeply comprehending THL’s goals as well as the motivations of corporations and the hurdles they are facing. When each choice is a strategic one, the impact of all judgments can increase. You take ownership of thinking critically about your projects. You thoughtfully vet the projects that you pursue, evaluating the risks, benefits, costs, and goals to make sure that you are making strategic choices that are in the best interest of THL.
Organization and long-term planning: Managing a large number of projects—many of which may have long-term strategies and implications for your own work—requires exemplary organizational skills, including effective cross-departmental project management skills, and daily use of Google Drive, online communication tools like Slack, spreadsheets, and project management software.
Self-motivation: This position requires the ability to set and manage your own schedule and to-do lists and carry them out in a timely, efficient manner to achieve as much as possible for animals in the limited amount of time that you have each day. You must be comfortable working both independently and as a part of a fully remote team.

Due to the nature of this work, you won’t often have direct external feedback on the effectiveness of your ideas. You will need to present arguments for or against new ideas and determine the metrics by which success can be measured.
Efficiency: You take advantage of the tools and resources available and work to accomplish more with less. You are able to successfully handle multiple tasks and projects at once, amidst multiple priorities.

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
THL’s Corporate Projects team is looking for an experienced project manager, communicator, and strategic thinker who can propose and test effective new strategies to advocate to a corporate audience for meaningful animal welfare reforms. As Corporate Projects Lead, you will join a team of high-impact advocates who engage with the country’s largest food companies on the most pressing issues affecting farmed animals. Your writing and communication expertise as well as your project management skills will underpin our Corporate Engagement work.
Your position plays a critical role in ensuring that THL can effectively engage with food companies about animal welfare, whether that be through the execution of new strategies, or the creation and management of educational websites, scientific reports, or other media. We want you because you know how to motivate audiences who might not think like you. You have experience managing multiple cross-departmental projects at once. You have a background in advocacy, communication, and strategic problem-solving. You can make decisions independently when faced with uncertainty and limited information. You’re ready to recognize corporations that make progress for animals and call out those that fail to stop cruel practices. This position reports directly to the Corporate Projects Manager.
This is a full-time, remote position. This position provides the opportunity for optional domestic and international travel, equivalent to approximately 1-3 trips per year, for week-long summits and retreats.
We are only able to consider applicants who reside in the United States and possess United States work authorization.
We will be holding a webinar on Wednesday, April 24th at 5:00pm PT/6:00pm MT/7:00pm CT/8:00pm ET for you to find out more about the role and ask any questions you may have. The webinar will be hosted by Michael Windsor, Senior Corporate Projects Manager and Dayne Alexander, Senior Corporate Research Lead. If you’re interested, please register here . As a webinar, you’ll only be able to see the presenter and not others watching. The webinar will be recorded and available here by Thursday, April 25th.
This position will close on Wednesday, May 1st, 2024 at 1:00pm PDT/2:00pm MDT/3:00pm CDT/4:00pm EDT. Late applications will not be accepted; if you are experiencing technical issues, please contact careers@thehumaneleague.org prior to the deadline. Please submit applications and all supporting documents in English.
Your responsibilities include but are not limited to:
Invent, evaluate, develop, and project manage new and innovative strategies—from national reports and cross-departmental projects to individual tools—that will influence corporations and their top executives. Lead collaboration with various teams at THL to execute these strategies.
Author and design strategic resources such as newsletters, websites, case studies, advertisements, and reports to educate corporate executives about animal welfare issues. Collaborate with the Corporate Engagement team to plan the distribution of these materials.
Develop and maintain expertise on corporate communications and marketing strategies used within the food industry. Act as a subject matter expert on effective corporate messaging to other THL departments, volunteers, coalition groups, outside vendors, and other stakeholders; this requires frequent professional communication.
Understand and stay up to date on the broader industry landscape on animal welfare issues and the nuances of the individual animal welfare policies THL is requesting of companies.
Leverage a variety of digital tools and platforms, such as Google Workspace, Asana, Slack, and Salesforce, to keep data and information organized and accessible.
REQUIRED SKILLS
Experience: You have enough professional or non-professional experience with advocacy work (via nonprofit or political campaigns, grassroots activism, environmental or climate activism, or other forms of activism) to demonstrate that you have a strong understanding and detailed knowledge of how to effectively drive systems transformation. You have experience in project management that will allow you to plan and execute complex, cross-departmental projects.
Communication: You have compelling written and verbal communication skills, which will enable you to present THL’s message professionally and convincingly in reports, websites, and other content designed for high level executives and public audiences. In crafting communications, you take into consideration the differing motivations of executives, activists, and the general public.
Strategic thinking: The right approaches will come as a result of deeply comprehending THL’s goals as well as the motivations of corporations and the hurdles they are facing. When each choice is a strategic one, the impact of all judgments can increase. You take ownership of thinking critically about your projects. You thoughtfully vet the projects that you pursue, evaluating the risks, benefits, costs, and goals to make sure that you are making strategic choices that are in the best interest of THL.
Organization and long-term planning: Managing a large number of projects—many of which may have long-term strategies and implications for your own work—requires exemplary organizational skills, including effective cross-departmental project management skills, and daily use of Google Drive, online communication tools like Slack, spreadsheets, and project management software.

The Tor Project, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization advancing human rights and freedoms by creating and deploying free and open source anonymity and privacy technologies. Roughly a third of the organization's total revenue comes from individuals, and more than 6,000 people make gifts under $1,000 every year.
Unlike some nonprofits that focus solely on donors who give at high levels, the Tor Project has the unique opportunity to do something different — to amplify the collective power of our small-dollar donors. We're looking for someone to help us better connect and engage with this global base of supporters.
This is an excellent opportunity to take ownership of an underdeveloped program and build it up from the ground.

This role reports to the Director of Fundraising and collaborates with the Fundraising Coordinator.
The Tor Project's approach to fundraising doesn't use privacy-invading tactics. We don't track whether or not donors have clicked on an email, a link, or a button; we don't buy or sell donor lists; we don't use invasive wealth assessment tools; and we aim to minimize the amount of information we collect during the donation process. The Individual Giving Manager must be able to prioritize donor privacy when conducting their duties and responsibilities.
Duties & responsibilities
Take ownership of the Tor Project's annual and monthly giving strategies with the primary goal of increasing small-dollar donor retention
Design and implement structures, processes, and policies required to execute these strategies
Create and maintain high-quality documentation about these structures, processes, and policies
Optimize Tor's open source, privacy-first CRM (CiviCRM) to build donor engagement using thoughtful automation and drip messaging
Collaborate with cross-team stakeholders to design and execute time-bound campaigns, including Tor's annual year-end fundraising campaign
Monitor and analyze progress towards goals and use this analysis to present suggestions for improvement
Contribute to short and long-term fundraising team planning and evaluation of strategic efforts
Represent the Tor Project in-person, at virtual events, and with a variety of external stakeholders
Support Director of Fundraising and Executive Director in donor relationship management
Collaborate closely with Fundraising Coordinator to facilitate timely gift acknowledgements and accurate reporting
Core requirements
Capacity to self-start, self-motivate, and remain persistent
Proven track record of setting and achieving nonprofit revenue targets
Experience with CRMs and email automation software
Experience writing content for email and social media campaigns and adapting messaging for different audiences
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build relationships both on and offline
Strong analytical skills, with the ability to use campaign performance data to inform fundraising strategy
At ease learning new technology and resilient in the face of technical roadblocks
Deeply committed to building a fundraising practice that prioritizes donor privacy
Ability to travel to in-person events (10% travel)
Preferred qualifications
Experience working remotely with a globally distributed team
Experience translating highly technical material into easy, approachable language
Mastery of CRMs and email automation software
Experience fundraising in an online-first or online-only environment
