[Full-time] Activist Program Manager at Greenpeace USA

2013-05-14 10:33:22

Location: District of Columbia
URL: http://www.greenpeace.org/

Description:

(San Francisco or DC)

The Activist Program Manager is responsible for developing, implementing and managing a comprehensive, dynamic and energetic activist program that identifies eager and capable volunteers for participation in Greenpeace non-violent direct actions, ensures their training and development in the skills required for their roles, and maintains long-term communication and networking with veteran activists and other peaceful activist groups. The Activist Program Manager facilitates the involvement of all Action Team staffers, as well as other staff and non-staff specialists, in support of the program. The Activist Program Manager works with other Greenpeace departments who engage activists and volunteers to identify creative ways in which Greenpeace supporters can participate safely in Greenpeace actions in a wide variety of roles.

Greenpeace is best known for peaceful direct actions—the activities we deploy to defend the planet, advance our campaigns, and inspire citizens to become active in working toward a more green and peaceful planet. A sampling of images from our 40+-year history shows the breadth of our activities and extent of our capabilities. The opportunity for creativity and innovation is vast.

The Greenpeace USA Action Team develops and coordinates non-violent direct actions in support of Greenpeace campaigns. Action staffers work with campaigners to identify strategic moments and creative ideas for actions and other forms of direct communication. The Action Team also cares for all the direct action equipment and runs a highly specialized technical training program to provide the skills Greenpeace activists need to go out and peacefully protest in dynamic ways.

Are there other jobs out there that claim to be the coolest job? Yes. Is this actually the coolest job? Very well may be. It’s really challenging, but there’s no other job like it and will help make you feel you’re actually doing something very meaningful in the world, which is very cool.

We seek someone with experience in generating creative ideas, campaigning, field logistics, training fired-up folks (young and old) to be skilled activists, and direct action coordination. The successful candidate has a strong understanding of campaign strategies and experience in developing objectives and tactics to support them. You have experience leading project teams of various sizes and are adept at delegation and coordination. You are skilled at communication; planning; and personnel, and project management. You can run effective and efficient meetings, use IM, SMS, email, the phone and direct interaction with real people dynamically and effectively, and you can juggle chainsaws and butterflies. You know that a desk can be as useful a tool as a rigid-hull inflatable and that both need to be used effectively. You work well under pressure and are unfazed by a reliably chaotic atmosphere. You are an excellent strategic thinker and are skilled in conflict resolution. All members of the Action Team also coordinate field events and train key activists in project planning, technical skills and logistical coordination. If that isn’t enough, they are responsible for the health and safety of all individuals under their care in the field. Perhaps most importantly, you have a high degree of initiative, intuition, creativity, passion, zaniness, ambition, and an unconventional way of thinking. A commitment to peaceful direct action as means of effecting change is a must. The position requires potentially extensive travel both within the US and internationally as well as an abundant patience for meetings (without calling too many) and a savvy for finding ways to move work forward. We understand this position is a unique one and do not expect anyone to have direct experience in every area listed above. Don’t let the specialization discourage you – what’s most important is a combination of sophisticated strategic thinking and wildly conceptual thinking mixed with a healthy dose of mischief and a baseline of integrity and responsibility.

Applicants should have minimum of five years experience working on environmental or social change issues and at least five years in a leadership position. Strong management, negotiation and communication skills are essential, as is a commitment to non-violence as a means of affecting change.

BENEFITS:

TO APPLY:

Please send cover letter and resume to resumes@wdc.greenpeace.org. Please include the following in your cover letter: a specific explanation of your interest in Greenpeace’s mission and the available position and how you found out about this career opportunity.
