Job Description

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 90+ talented individuals dispersed across the country and around the world. 

The Open Wing Alliance (OWA) is a global coalition of organizations united in a common goal: to end the abuse of chickens worldwide. OWA was initiated by The Humane League and has since grown into a global force, with 80 member organizations in 63 countries. In addition to launching coordinated global campaigns as a coalition, we share campaign strategies, tactics, and resources around the world to accomplish our shared goal.

YOUR OPPORTUNITY

We are looking for a Global Campaigns Coordinator, accountable for winning global cage-free commitments through corporate campaigns.

As the Global Campaigns Coordinator, your position plays an integral role in the execution of the tactics and strategies that make up the Open Wing Alliance’s global campaigns. As a campaigner, you will have a deep comprehension of our targets, our primary campaign strategies, and the tools we will use to win. You execute tactics across a variety of media, including email, social media, advertisements, and other digital spaces. The ideal candidate will enjoy regularly doing in-depth research that others may find tedious and that occasionally yields incredible finds; be able to persevere for months through long campaigns without much indication that we’re having an impact (that is, until we win!); and be comfortable upsetting and receiving angry responses from executives at the target company. You have solid organization and communication skills to mobilize OWA’s member organizations. You are tenacious and motivated to find the key pressure points that will bring us closer to a victory for animals. This position reports directly to the Head of Global Corporate Engagement.

This is a full-time, remote position. This position requires domestic and international travel for OWA summits and staff retreats; this is equivalent to approximately 2-4 week-long trips per year. We are only able to consider applicants who reside in the United States and possess United States work authorization.

We will be recording a webinar hosted by Ellie Donohue-Miller, Head of Global Corporate Engagement, and Jennie Hunter, Senior Global Campaigns Coordinator. You can submit any questions you would like answered regarding the role and The Humane League via this form. Please submit any questions by May 31. The webinar will be available to watch here on June 2.

This application will close on Monday, June 13, 2022 at 1:00pm ET.

CORE RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Conduct research and analysis to help inform what strategies and tactics we use throughout the campaign, what our campaign communications should look like (i.e. slogan, ad language), and the project plan that we follow during the campaign.

  • Gather and monitor contact information, data, and key details about companies and their executives, including corporate structure, history, leadership and non-leadership, media, affiliations, and any potential branch of the company that can be used in a campaign.

  • Prepare and execute campaign tactics within the overarching strategy, including (but not limited to) email and social media campaigns, phone-calls with corporate employees, petitions, and placing advertisements.

  • Work with and support relevant teams to write or otherwise devise campaigning materials including website content, video plans, petitions, advertisements, social media actions, and literature language.

  • Help plan and maintain the strategic direction and schedule of campaign tactics to deploy.

  • Collaborate closely with other teams at The Humane League and within OWA to develop and execute various plans for the campaigns, align on goals, and debrief on the progress of our campaigns.

  • Quickly adapt to changing campaign landscape in order to capitalize on any information you might learn about the target during the campaign.

  • Coordinate and motivate OWA members across 80 organizations to take action. Lead with “why” to inspire others to get involved. Maintain morale during long and challenging campaigns. 

  • Other duties as assigned.

REQUIRED SKILLS

  • Have approximately one year of experience in paid or unpaid work related to grassroots campaigning, campus organizing, or activism with an animal protection organization or another social movement. 

  • Relentless - It is important to campaign fast, hard, and where it matters. The pressure must remain consistent and build momentum, preventing the company from ever getting ahead. You demonstrate excellent problem-solving skills for tackling barriers and persevering through challenging campaigns.

  • Organized - With all of the research, data, action alerts, and communications, it is crucial to remain organized and on top of all that is going on in the campaign. You can easily manage moving pieces from multiple projects on a daily basis.  

  • Efficient - Take advantage of the tools and resources available and work to accomplish more with less. You are self-motivated to set your own schedule and to-do lists, and carry them out in a timely, efficient manner. You are able to identify the high priority and high impact work. You have solid capabilities in the digital space, able to navigate the internet to research hard-to-find information, use various email and social media tools, and troubleshoot tech problems.

  • Innovative - Barriers will come up, and companies will get used to the tactics over time. Being innovative throughout the campaign will create an unpredictable and unmanageable environment for the target company. You possess creative and analytical thinking skills for developing campaign strategies and tactics.

  • Strategic - The right approaches will come as a result of understanding the target company and the current landscape. When each decision is a strategic one, the impact of all decisions can increase.

  • Collaborative - You are a team player, dedicated to The Humane League and Open Wing Alliance’s mission. You can motivate others to take action. You have excellent written and verbal communication skills.
