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.
Innovate monthly giving fundraising tactics with focus towards a growing digital fundraising landscape and increasing our feedback loop from young members and members of the global majority.
Seize opportunities to move members to action and activist leadership that furthers our campaign areas and shows members the impact they are making in the world with us. You’ll be responsible for supporting member cultivation tactics: from new member welcome outreach to activist onboarding, you’ll be there to support members each step of the way.
Coordinate closely with the Senior Membership Manager regarding timing and expected income generated from the monthly giving growth tactics you’re innovatively implementing.
Lead all-staff fundraising teams that are primarily geared toward growing the monthly giving program.
Participate in the member and activist base building working group and bring forward new ideas to make our efforts to expand and cultivate our membership base more racially equitable.
Identify any high dollar leads in our general member base for the major gifts team.
Actively participate in organization-wide planning, fundraising, racial equity work, recruitment, and campaign activities.
Salary and benefits:
Salary range: $60,000 - $63,495 commensurate with experience.
Hours: Corporate Accountability’s full-time staff generally work 32 hours per week, with periods of more intensive work that correspond with the ebb and flow nature of campaigns or projects throughout the year. Our core hours are 10 am - 4 pm on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, with flexibility to determine your remaining hours of the week in coordination with your supervisor and team.

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.
Innovate monthly giving fundraising tactics with focus towards a growing digital fundraising landscape and increasing our feedback loop from young members and members of the global majority.
Seize opportunities to move members to action and activist leadership that furthers our campaign areas and shows members the impact they are making in the world with us. You’ll be responsible for supporting member cultivation tactics: from new member welcome outreach to activist onboarding, you’ll be there to support members each step of the way.
Coordinate closely with the Senior Membership Manager regarding timing and expected income generated from the monthly giving growth tactics you’re innovatively implementing.
Lead all-staff fundraising teams that are primarily geared toward growing the monthly giving program.
Participate in the member and activist base building working group and bring forward new ideas to make our efforts to expand and cultivate our membership base more racially equitable.
Identify any high dollar leads in our general member base for the major gifts team.
Actively participate in organization-wide planning, fundraising, racial equity work, recruitment, and campaign activities.
Salary and benefits:
Salary range: $60,000 - $63,495 commensurate with experience.
Hours: Corporate Accountability’s full-time staff generally work 32 hours per week, with periods of more intensive work that correspond with the ebb and flow nature of campaigns or projects throughout the year. Our core hours are 10 am - 4 pm on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, with flexibility to determine your remaining hours of the week in coordination with your supervisor and team. Given the nature of fundraising work, rapid response moments, and member house parties, there will be instances where you would need to be available outside of our standard business hours.
Our comprehensive benefit package includes: health insurance (with 90% of the premium for all tiers covered by the organization) and dental coverage (with 100% of the individual premium covered by the organization and the option to add dependents at an additional cost); FSA for transit, health care, and dependent care; and 401(k) with employer match.
Generous time off policies including one month of personal vacation time, one week of an office closure for collective rest, holidays, and unlimited wellness days to prioritize health.

Global Zero seeks a talented digital architect and creative engagement strategist who is committed to ending the existential threat posed by nuclear weapons and securing justice for communities harmed by the nuclear weapons complex.
The Partner for Digital will be the linchpin in the development of an online full-court press that expands our audiences across multiple platforms, strengthens our ability to raise funds online, and amplifies our message that urgent action is needed to eliminate nuclear weapons globally.
In this position, you will leverage the smarts of a diverse team of campaigners, a global community of senior political leaders, military commanders and national security experts, a growing group of young volunteer activists, a widely recognized and respected international brand, and 501(c)(3) and (c)(4) capabilities. You’ll help us combine creative and bold campaigns with sophisticated digital infrastructure, sharp visuals, engaging content, and clear messages that equip people with the information and tools they need to speak truth to power and pressure decision-makers to act.
Background
Global Zero is spearheading an audacious campaign to eradicate all nuclear weapons everywhere and unlock a world of possibility beyond the bomb in our lifetime.
We don’t believe global security can be built on threats of mass destruction. We reject the narrative that insists we accept the enormous risks these weapons pose to our communities and our planet. We refuse to be complicit in the undemocratic, unjust and terrifyingly absolute power to kill hundreds of millions of people at the push of a button. And we will not stand idly by while nuclear-armed governments pursue dangerous plans that make nuclear conflict all but inevitable.
This year, we’ve undertaken a radical reimagining of our work. Leading with our values and bringing a campaign-strategy mindset to everything we do, we’ve pioneered a pathbreaking new organizational model that:
Carries forward an intersectional, multi-pronged, cross-functional approach to building movements and influencing policy;
Couples feminist and anti-racist leadership principles with an experimental mindset;
Replaces traditional departments and hierarchies in favor of a flatter partnership where roles are mapped to core needs; and
Prioritizes institutional agility, radical candor and transparency, systems thinking, and whole person support.
The Job
We can’t persuade governments to take bold action if we don’t expand our audience and win the story wars, and we’ll need you at the table to ensure that powerful storytelling and cutting-edge digital engagement is a major pillar of our strategy.
As Partner for Digital, you’ll be tasked with building out our digital infrastructure and leading engagement strategy, ensuring that our messages break out and break through to new audiences. This is a rare opportunity — at a unique moment of transformation and possibility — to take a leading role at a high-profile and influential organization working at every level to rid the world of nuclear weapons and change the way we think about and manifest security.
In this position, you’ll be responsible for shaping the digital vision and delivering on growth and engagement objectives, while threading the needle between Global Zero’s thought leadership and movement-building work. You will bring to the table current experience with digital leadership and innovation, and a history of engaging online audiences in important policy debates, channeling interest and outrage into action, and winning campaigns, as well as strong message development, writing, and management skills.
The Partner for Digital will lead the following key activities to raise the profile of our issue and organization, expand our reach and build strength over time:
Online Advocacy: Develop and implement online advocacy strategies, and design and execute plans to grow and leverage social media audiences, email lists, and website traffic.
Digital Marketing: Oversee all aspects of online public engagement and community management, assure consistent communication of organizational values and policy positions, and design and execute digital communication/marketing plans for Global Zero initiatives.
Content Management: Create a comprehensive institutional and programmatic digital marketing plan and calendar. Serve as project manager for all digital communications deliverables including email, social media content and ads, and digital campaigns.
Leadership: Bring strong leadership, organizational development experience, and management acumen, and an affinity for learning and mentoring.
Collaboration: Work across teams and in deep collaboration with partners to help them develop communications, digital, and engagement strategies to achieve mutual objectives and growth.
Transformation: Advocate for creative digital thinking and innovative approaches to storytelling and engagement at all levels of the organization.
We’ll be honest: It’s a big job and a lot is riding on it. Digital is an area that is chronically misunderstood, undervalued, and underutilized in the broader nuclear advocacy field, and you’re going to help us change that.
You
Are a creative and resourceful strategist who understands the unique power and potential of digital outreach, marketing, and advocacy, and knows what it takes to break out and break through;
Take initiative in everything you do, and understand how to work in deep collaboration;
Are entrepreneurial and intellectually curious by nature, as well as analytical and technologically savvy;
Are enthusiastic about experimenting and learning from mistakes, but also respect metrics and outcomes;
Can prioritize in a rapidly evolving work environment and stay calm, steady, and upbeat;
Won’t be spiritually crushed by thinking and talking about nuclear weapons and existential threats on the regular;
Can see the big picture without losing sight of important details; and
Are eager to help shape a stronger and more intentional culture of impact, trust, empathy, and belonging.
Your Record
Up-to-date background in all aspects of a modern digital engagement leadership position, with demonstrable experience working in increasingly leadership-oriented digital strategy roles;
Strong understanding of digital analytics, including ability to collect, analyze, and interpret data to guide data-informed decision-making;
Experience using some (or all) of the online platforms currently employed, including but not limited to Action Network, WordPress, and social media channels;
Values-based message development, writing, and research/testing skills;
Digital communications, storytelling, and channel management expertise; and
A commitment to integrity, inclusion, compassion, and totally crushing it on the job.
Bonus!
Do you have other skills that we should know about? Here are a few things we think are great but not required:
Experience building and leveraging an influencer outreach program to grow the profile and connections of Global Zero staff, movement leaders, and experts;
Great eye for compelling visuals and design;
Witty GIF-master and meme-machine;
Subject matter expertise in peace and security, international affairs and/or nuclear weapons; and, finally,
Willing to split a pizza with almost any topping (except ham and pineapple, gross).
The Setup
This is a full-time exempt position being filled at the Partner (I) level, which sits in our $80,000-$100,000 pay band and requires advanced proficiency.
Other benefits include:
6 weeks paid leave, 1 week of paid sick leave and 12 weeks paid parental leave;
Platinum-level health insurance for you and your family at no cost to you;
4-day work weeks (and no, we don’t mean squeezing five days into four);
10% retirement contributions, work from home allowances, and professional development expenses; and
Talented, compassionate, and occasionally hilarious colleagues who are committed to the idea that this vital work can and must be joyful.
We do our best to strike a balance between the needs of individuals and the organization. It’s a lot of asynchronous work, virtual work sessions, and online project management/tracking that relies heavily on platforms like Slack, Asana, and Mural.
While a number of staff are located in the Washington, DC area, we’re a remote-first operation and able to hire from any geographic location.
How To Apply
We are looking for someone who is comfortable working both independently and in teams, highly responsive, and able to lead initiatives as well as take direction from others. If that’s you, please click here to submit a cover letter, resume, and samples of your work.
Nuclear weapons threaten every person on Earth and disproportionately harm women and communities of color — and our work must reflect that fact. Global Zero is committed to cultivating and supporting a workplace rooted in the values of diversity, equity, justice, and belonging. We understand continuous learning, meaningful reflection, radical candor, and leading by example in our interactions with others both within and outside our organization are vital to achieve our goals and foster a safe work environment for everyone. We provide structured and unstructured opportunities for anti-bias development and growth to staff and volunteers and build just and proactive organizational policies to ensure we are living our truth in all we do as an organization — and in partnership with the broader movements in which we operate.
We're committed to building a diverse and inclusive movement and recognize that's impossible without first building a diverse and inclusive team. We welcome applications from all, and especially encourage those who have been traditionally sidelined from nuclear policy and advocacy — including women, Black people, Indigenous people, people of color, people with disabilities, immigrants, refugees, and LGBTQ folks — to apply.
We can't wait to hear from you!
