Want a job that will build skills to help you launch your career, work on urgent issues you care about like stopping plastic pollution and reducing bee-killing pesticides while making good money?

Fund for the Public Interest is hiring students to work on top environmental and social change issues! We’re a national non-profit that builds the people power it takes to win hard-fought campaigns and make real change on some of the most important issues of our day. That’s why the Fund is hiring people to work this winter on campaigns for America’s leading grassroots action groups to protect the environment and public health across the nation.

Currently, we’re working with Environment America to pass the 100% clean act to protect our future from global warming. When you take a campaign job with the Fund, you’ll work on real-world issues like this one and others, like reducing single-use plastic pollution, big money in politics, or stopping the use of bee-killing pesticides. You’ll get real-world training, building the people power it takes to win on these issues, and gaining leadership experience, all while getting paid.

We’re hiring for a number of different positions including campaign staff, field managers, and directors for our summer campaign season. There are available positions in our 15+ offices all across the country, so apply today to help make change happen.
