Campaign Organizer, Impact (various locations)

Impact organizers are on the ground to mobilize businesses, faith leaders and citizens to demonstrate the commitment to keeping our promises on climate change, and transitioning a sustainable, renewable energy economy.

Many of our organizers are working with elected leaders in states across the country to meet goals of getting to at least 10 percent solar by 2030. Grassroots efforts like these have helped triple solar nationwide in just the last two years.

Our campaign organizer position is a great way to help students searching for full-time work after graduation start building the skills they need for a career in advocacy or organizing.
