About Blue Forest
Blue Forest is a conservation finance non-profit whose mission is to accelerate the pace and scale of ecological restoration. Since 2018, Blue Forest has managed investor capital through its flagship financial product, the Forest Resilience Bond (FRB), which deploys private capital to finance forest restoration projects on private and public lands to reduce the risk of catastrophic wildfires. More recently, Blue Forest has also established Blue Forest Asset Management (BFAM), an investment management platform connecting investors to compelling, mission-aligned opportunities in broader asset classes beyond FRB projects, such as private equity and private credit investments.
Blue Forest is an interdisciplinary team of scientists, engineers, foresters, finance and communications professionals. We are harnessing financial innovation and building partnerships with investors, non-profits, private companies, and the public sector to design sustainable solutions to systemic climate resilience challenges faced by vulnerable communities and ecosystems. As we grow and develop new financial solutions to pressing environmental problems, we are committed to promoting social equity and amplifying historically excluded voices in the burgeoning field of conservation finance.
Position Summary
Project Analysts and Associates at Blue Forest focus on the development of conservation finance projects while coordinating and contributing to other aspects of Blue Forest workstreams, including research and science efforts, communications, education and capacity building, and building and maintaining partnerships.

Your responsibilities include but are not limited to:
Proactively identify, recruit, and guide individuals from across your region to join THL’s expanding community of supporters. Grow our network and re-energize our existing network.
Train, motivate, and retain volunteers to take on leadership roles for THL and to execute a variety of actions and events to further our campaign efforts and overall mission to end the abuse of animals raised for food.
Efficiently manage volunteer tracking tools to keep meticulous records of volunteer activity and progression within THL’s changemaker circle of engagement.
Act as the face of THL to external stakeholders (including donors identified by THL’s Development team), local media, and community groups. This includes speaking at events, in webinars, and on video conference calls.
REQUIRED SKILLS
At least 1 year of experience in grassroots or community organizing or grassroots advocacy.

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.

The take-away
Ready to take on some of the most powerful forces in our society? We’re looking for a Membership Organizer to join a fierce, smart team challenging global corporations, holding them accountable, and creating a world where all people can thrive.
Why you’ll love coming to work every day
You’ll help change the world by being part of fearless and winning campaigns. You’ll be joining an organization that’s not satisfied with the world as it is—and has a vision for how it should be. When your quest is ending corporate abuse, you can’t be afraid to name names and demand what the world needs. For more than 40 years, we’ve been exposing and challenging the abuses of the likes of Nestlé, Exxon Mobil, Philip Morris International, McDonald’s, and more. We don’t back down, and we run campaigns until we win.
You’ll work with awesome people . Join a team of passionate, kind, determined, optimistic, and solutions-oriented folks. We work hard, celebrate victories large and small, and always have each other’s backs.
You can take on big responsibilities as you go. You’ll thrive here as you develop new skills, tackle new challenges, learn, and grow. We pay lots of attention to building staff leadership, and we provide support and training to help you grow in your role.
You’ll be part of an organization committed to advancing racial equity and transforming systems of oppression. We are deeply committed to prioritizing the leadership of people who bear the brunt of corporate abuse: Black and Indigenous people and other people of color, women, low-income people, people in the Global South, and LGBTQ+ folks around the world. Our unique culture has been fostered by a long history of women at the helm. We are actively focusing on the leadership of our staff of color, knowing we are stronger when the organization reflects the vision of the world we’re building together.
What you’ll do
Corporate Accountability’s impact starts with our monthly donors—and you will be working closely with them to help realize all of the power they bring to this movement.
Corporate Accountability is a member powered organization and has been for more than four decades. It’s one of our greatest strengths because our members give us the political independence we need to wage hard-hitting campaigns that challenge deep-rooted power structures. And monthly donors are the backbone of this membership support. Their regular contribution provides financial stability so we can create long-term, strategic campaign plans and the ability to react quickly when things change.
Your job will be to grow and deepen relationships with our members while innovating and expanding the ways we fundraise monthly gifts. You will use your creativity, your people skills, and your digital skills to broaden our fundraising tactics to increase membership from young folks and members of the global majority. You’ll play an important role in the team that’s advancing racial justice and equity through organizing with our members. And, you’ll work with members to take action and create activist leadership opportunities that challenge corporate power and systemic racism, and advances our campaigns.
Who you are
The rampant abuses of corporations and the outrageous amount of power they have makes you mad as hell—and you want to do something about it.
You have a commitment to advancing racial equity and ending systems of oppression, and are ready to do this in your day-to-day work. You understand that campaigning for justice must include working to dismantle white supremacy, institutional racism, legacies of colonialism, and anti-Blackness.
You know how to ask people for money and you are skilled at moving people to financially support work that helps them achieve their vision of the world. You believe activating more people to fund long-term, effective campaigning is essential. You’re enthusiastic about doing so because you know that asking for and giving money are both powerful acts of social change.
You passionately believe that relationship-based organizing is how we change the world—and you have the experience, relationship-building, and interpersonal communication skills to turn your passion into action. Whether it’s on climate, racial, economic, gender, or other social justice issues, you have experience successfully working across lines of difference in a U.S. context to mobilize and activate diverse groups of people toward a shared goal and vision. You know how to build relationships with trust and integrity, respecting people’s inherent power, agency, and ability to create change. And you are a stellar active listener.
You’re a problem-solver and solutions-oriented. You’re able to come up with a range of creative and innovative solutions when things don’t go quite as planned, especially when it comes to digital fundraising. You know how to analyze the situation, get the information you need, and propose solutions to solve fundraising needs.
You are good with technology and troubleshooting. Most likely you’re the one your grandma/uncle/colleagues/friends call when they’re confused with a new digital platform. And you love to help them figure it out, big or small. You’re patient and a good trainer. Plus, you’re an early adopter and eager to test out and learn new apps and systems whenever you can.
You are willing to travel 3-6 times per year across the Northeast for house parties and member engagement. Our current approach to travel is staff-led, meaning we will continue to center the health and safety of our staff in these decisions.

Full time
The take-away
Ready to take on some of the most powerful forces in our society? We’re looking for a Membership Organizer to join a fierce, smart team challenging global corporations, holding them accountable, and creating a world where all people can thrive.
Why you’ll love coming to work every day
You’ll help change the world by being part of fearless and winning campaigns. You’ll be joining an organization that’s not satisfied with the world as it is—and has a vision for how it should be. When your quest is ending corporate abuse, you can’t be afraid to name names and demand what the world needs. For more than 40 years, we’ve been exposing and challenging the abuses of the likes of Nestlé, Exxon Mobil, Philip Morris International, McDonald’s, and more. We don’t back down, and we run campaigns until we win.
You’ll work with awesome people . Join a team of passionate, kind, determined, optimistic, and solutions-oriented folks. We work hard, celebrate victories large and small, and always have each other’s backs.
You can take on big responsibilities as you go. You’ll thrive here as you develop new skills, tackle new challenges, learn, and grow. We pay lots of attention to building staff leadership, and we provide support and training to help you grow in your role.
You’ll be part of an organization committed to advancing racial equity and transforming systems of oppression. We are deeply committed to prioritizing the leadership of people who bear the brunt of corporate abuse: Black and Indigenous people and other people of color, women, low-income people, people in the Global South, and LGBTQ+ folks around the world. Our unique culture has been fostered by a long history of women at the helm. We are actively focusing on the leadership of our staff of color, knowing we are stronger when the organization reflects the vision of the world we’re building together.
What you’ll do
Corporate Accountability’s impact starts with our monthly donors—and you will be working closely with them to help realize all of the power they bring to this movement.
Corporate Accountability is a member powered organization and has been for more than four decades. It’s one of our greatest strengths because our members give us the political independence we need to wage hard-hitting campaigns that challenge deep-rooted power structures. And monthly donors are the backbone of this membership support. Their regular contribution provides financial stability so we can create long-term, strategic campaign plans and the ability to react quickly when things change.
Your job will be to grow and deepen relationships with our members while innovating and expanding the ways we fundraise monthly gifts. You will use your creativity, your people skills, and your digital skills to broaden our fundraising tactics to increase membership from young folks and members of the global majority. You’ll play an important role in the team that’s advancing racial justice and equity through organizing with our members. And, you’ll work with members to take action and create activist leadership opportunities that challenge corporate power and systemic racism, and advances our campaigns.
Who you are
The rampant abuses of corporations and the outrageous amount of power they have makes you mad as hell—and you want to do something about it.
You have a commitment to advancing racial equity and ending systems of oppression, and are ready to do this in your day-to-day work. You understand that campaigning for justice must include working to dismantle white supremacy, institutional racism, legacies of colonialism, and anti-Blackness.
You know how to ask people for money and you are skilled at moving people to financially support work that helps them achieve their vision of the world. You believe activating more people to fund long-term, effective campaigning is essential. You’re enthusiastic about doing so because you know that asking for and giving money are both powerful acts of social change.
You passionately believe that relationship-based organizing is how we change the world—and you have the experience, relationship-building, and interpersonal communication skills to turn your passion into action. Whether it’s on climate, racial, economic, gender, or other social justice issues, you have experience successfully working across lines of difference in a U.S. context to mobilize and activate diverse groups of people toward a shared goal and vision. You know how to build relationships with trust and integrity, respecting people’s inherent power, agency, and ability to create change. And you are a stellar active listener.
You’re a problem-solver and solutions-oriented. You’re able to come up with a range of creative and innovative solutions when things don’t go quite as planned, especially when it comes to digital fundraising. You know how to analyze the situation, get the information you need, and propose solutions to solve fundraising needs.
You are good with technology and troubleshooting. Most likely you’re the one your grandma/uncle/colleagues/friends call when they’re confused with a new digital platform. And you love to help them figure it out, big or small. You’re patient and a good trainer. Plus, you’re an early adopter and eager to test out and learn new apps and systems whenever you can.
You are willing to travel 3-6 times per year across the Northeast for house parties and member engagement. Our current approach to travel is staff-led, meaning we will continue to center the health and safety of our staff in these decisions.
You have 1-3 years of experience in fundraising, organizing, campaigning, nonprofits or other relevant fields.
What you’ll be responsible for in the day-to-day
Fundraise monthly gifts from new, prospective, and current members. You will use a number of fundraising tactics including peer-to-peer fundraising, in-person events and parties, converting digital-recruited leads to monthly pledgers, and ongoing fundraising phoning.

BACKGROUND
The Fisher Center at Bard develops, produces, and presents performing arts across disciplines through new productions and context-rich programs that challenge and inspire. At once a premier professional performing arts center and a hub for research and education, The Fisher Center supports artists, students, and audiences in the development and exploration of artistic ideas and perspectives from the past, present, and future.
Designed by architect Frank Gehry and opened in 2003, The Fisher Center is the most ambitious capital project in Bard’s history, and embodies the College’s commitment to the arts as a cultural and educational necessity. The Center presents more than 200 world-class events and welcomes 50,000 visitors each year. It supports artists at all stages of their careers and employs more than 300 professional artists annually.
The Fisher Center is a powerful catalyst of art-making regionally, nationally, and worldwide, with a strong emphasis on development, research, innovation, and rediscovery. Every year, the Fisher Center produces eight to 10 major new works across disciplines, including opera, classical music, theater, dance, performance art, and cabaret. Over the past ten years, its commissioned productions have been seen in more than 100 communities and at leading arts centers around the world. In 2019, The Fisher Center won the Tony Award for Best Revival of a Musical for Daniel Fish’s production of Oklahoma! which began life in 2007 as an undergraduate production at Bard and was produced professionally in The Fisher Center’s SummerScape Festival in 2015 before transferring to New York City.
The Fisher Center houses two theaters: Sosnoff Theater, which seats approximately 800 people and features a proscenium stage with a concert shell insert that accommodates opera, music, dance, and theater; and LUMA Theater, a fully flexible venue which seats up to 200 people. The Fisher Center also comprises rehearsal studios, production facilities, offices, and alternative performance spaces. In the summer, The Fisher Center operates the Spiegeltent, a freestanding cabaret venue which has delighted SummerScape audiences for more than a decade.
In October 2022 Bard announced that Maya Lin has been chosen to design a new performing arts studio building for The Fisher Center, in partnership with architects Bialosky and Partners and theater and acoustic consultants Charcoalblue. Situated in meadows to the west of the Fisher Center and overlooking woodlands and the Catskill mountains, the building will provide a home for Fisher Center LAB, the center’s acclaimed residency and commissioning program for professional artists. It will also house rehearsal and teaching facilities for Bard’s undergraduate programs in Dance and in Theater and Performance. The 25,000-square-foot building will contain five state-of-the-art studios for artist residencies, rehearsals, informal performances, and dance and theater classes, which will be connected by gathering hubs. It will function as a laboratory for the performing arts, where students and professional artists work side by side, informing each other’s practices and sharing their discoveries and works-in-progress with audiences from the Bard community and the public. Groundbreaking for the $42 million studio building will take place in 2023, during the celebration of The Fisher Center’s 20th anniversary. Once completed, the building will expand The Fisher Center’s identity beyond the walls of Gehry’s stunning landmark, to become a cultural campus comprising both the Gehry and Lin buildings.
The Fisher Center offers outstanding programs to many communities, including the students and faculty of Bard, and audiences in the Hudson Valley, New York City, across the country, and around the world. The Center’s major professional programs include: -Bard SummerScape – One of the most ambitious and highly anticipated performing arts festivals in the country. In July and August, SummerScape comprises the annual Bard Music Festival (BMF), now in its 34th year, and seven weeks of opera, dance, music, theater, cabaret, and film. SummerScape has been acclaimed by London’s Times Literary Supplement as “the most intellectually ambitious of America’s summer music festivals” and described by the International Herald Tribune as “seven weeks of cultural delight.” -Fisher Center LAB – The Fisher Center’s artist residency and commissioning program, provides custom-made and meaningful support for innovative artists across disciplines. Since its launch in 2012, LAB has supported residencies, workshops, and performances for hundreds of artists, incubating new projects and engaging audiences, students, faculty, and staff in the process of creating contemporary performances. LAB strives to provide artists with the environment, resources, and funding they need to experiment, dream, and fully realize their artistic potential. Where possible, Fisher Center LAB builds long-term relationships for artists, powering their work by taking on administrative and producing support of their practices and companies. Productions developed by Fisher Center LAB often premiere in the annual Bard SummerScape festival and frequently tour around the country and across the world. Artists currently under commission from Fisher Center LAB include Pam Tanowitz, Suzan-Lori Parks, Lileana Blain-Cruz, SITI Company, Justin Vivian Bond and Anthony Roth Costanzo, Raja Feather Kelly, Paul Soileau, Beth Gill, Justin Peck, and Daaimah Mubashshir.
The Fisher Center is also home to the Dance and Theater and Performance Programs in Bard’s undergraduate Division of the Arts, and works closely with the Conservatory of Music, The Orchestra Now, and the Vocal Arts Program, among other excellent and diverse arts programs at Bard.

The 25,000-square-foot building will contain five state-of-the-art studios for artist residencies, rehearsals, informal performances, and dance and theater classes, which will be connected by gathering hubs. It will function as a laboratory for the performing arts, where students and professional artists work side by side, informing each other’s practices and sharing their discoveries and works-in-progress with audiences from the Bard community and the public. Groundbreaking for the $42 million studio building will take place in 2023, during the celebration of The Fisher Center’s 20th anniversary. Once completed, the building will expand The Fisher Center’s identity beyond the walls of Gehry’s stunning landmark, to become a cultural campus comprising both the Gehry and Lin buildings.
The Fisher Center offers outstanding programs to many communities, including the students and faculty of Bard, and audiences in the Hudson Valley, New York City, across the country, and around the world. The Center’s major professional programs include: -Bard SummerScape – One of the most ambitious and highly anticipated performing arts festivals in the country. In July and August, SummerScape comprises the annual Bard Music Festival (BMF), now in its 34th year, and seven weeks of opera, dance, music, theater, cabaret, and film. SummerScape has been acclaimed by London’s Times Literary Supplement as “the most intellectually ambitious of America’s summer music festivals” and described by the International Herald Tribune as “seven weeks of cultural delight.” -Fisher Center LAB – The Fisher Center’s artist residency and commissioning program, provides custom-made and meaningful support for innovative artists across disciplines. Since its launch in 2012, LAB has supported residencies, workshops, and performances for hundreds of artists, incubating new projects and engaging audiences, students, faculty, and staff in the process of creating contemporary performances. LAB strives to provide artists with the environment, resources, and funding they need to experiment, dream, and fully realize their artistic potential. Where possible, Fisher Center LAB builds long-term relationships for artists, powering their work by taking on administrative and producing support of their practices and companies. Productions developed by Fisher Center LAB often premiere in the annual Bard SummerScape festival and frequently tour around the country and across the world. Artists currently under commission from Fisher Center LAB include Pam Tanowitz, Suzan-Lori Parks, Lileana Blain-Cruz, SITI Company, Justin Vivian Bond and Anthony Roth Costanzo, Raja Feather Kelly, Paul Soileau, Beth Gill, Justin Peck, and Daaimah Mubashshir.
The Fisher Center is also home to the Dance and Theater and Performance Programs in Bard’s undergraduate Division of the Arts, and works closely with the Conservatory of Music, The Orchestra Now, and the Vocal Arts Program, among other excellent and diverse arts programs at Bard.
