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 LGBTQIA+ 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 wages powerful campaigns challenging corporate abuse—and behind every campaign victory you’ll find a dynamic operations team that provides the back-end and behind-the-scenes support. Ensuring effective, efficient, and secure finances and administering our generous benefits package are key tactics to support our organizers to wage hard-hitting tactics that are stopping transnational corporations from devastating democracy, trampling human rights, and destroying our planet.  From supporting the preparation of our annual external audit to reconciling bank accounts to maintaining our general ledger and preparing reports & tools for the organization's budget and benefits management, you’ll be the go-to administrator who plays an essential part in enabling our team to make an impact.

You understand that campaigning for justice must include working to dismantle white supremacy, institutional racism, colonialism, and anti-Blackness.  You have experience maintaining systems and managing projects from start to finish. You can meet deadlines and collaborate with colleagues to move a project along. When something doesn’t go as planned, you’re ready to adapt and adjust to get back on track. You are all about the details. Whether it’s making nuanced spreadsheets for your family vacation, spotting typos in just about anything you read, or the efficient filing system you developed at your last job, you are thorough, accurate, and organized. Managing data and keeping track of every last detail brings you great satisfaction—maybe even joy.  You have experience keeping information secure and confidential. You know with whom and how to discuss sensitive matters, and you know how to get clarity if you’re not sure. Basically, you’re the person your friends confide in, because they know their business won’t be on the socials tomorrow. You are a numbers person—you know how to distill complex financial principles into a simple report—and you can tweak that information for different audiences in different contexts.  You have experience with Microsoft Excel and either Intuit QuickBooks or Salesforce CRM. You have at least 1-2 years of experience in a non-profit with a background in accounting or finance.

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.

You know with whom and how to discuss sensitive matters, and you know how to get clarity if you’re not sure. Basically, you’re the person your friends confide in, because they know their business won’t be on the socials tomorrow.
