The take-away
Ready to take on some of the most powerful forces in our society? We’re looking for a Major Gifts 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 is at an exciting moment in our four-decade history: We’re running hard-hitting, world-changing campaigns that are advancing the human right to water, holding the Big Polluters driving the global climate crisis accountable, and stopping Big Tobacco and the fast food industry from devastating people’s health. We’re challenging the racist systems that fuel corporate power, and reclaiming democracy from their corruptive influences with our Black Collective, Movement Power and grantmaking programs. And we know that people taking action together is the way to stopping these abuses. Corporate Accountability’s success comes from the people who fuel our resources and make our campaign impact possible. That’s where you come in.
Our campaigns are driven by hundreds of thousands of people around the world. Your job will be to organize the committed, inspiring members at the heart of Corporate Accountability to give more boldly and more deeply than they ever thought possible and bring new people in to join us as well. You will build relationships with the people who power our campaigns and help them understand and act on the impact they can have toward building a world rooted in justice. You will organize events throughout the year to engage our members and build relationships with those who haven’t given before. You’ll build an in-depth expertise on our issue areas and campaigns, and be ready to speak at the drop of a hat to the problems our world faces and the people powering the solutions.
You’ll do it all with the expertise of a decades-strong campaign organization known for its ability to build and maintain people power over the long haul. You’ll be trained, motivated, and inspired by a team of organizers that sees injustice in the world and knows the only way to solve it is to talk to one person at a time. And in doing so, you’ll bring hope to people around the country who believe a better world is possible and are just waiting for you to ask them to get involved.
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 passionately believe that relationship-based organizing is how we change the world—and you’ve got the relationship-building and interpersonal communication skills to prove it. Whether in person, on the phone, virtually, or through written communications, you make connections and build and maintain relationships for the long term. You are particularly skilled at building relationships across race, language, cultural, and gender differences. You’re a stellar active listener, adept at responding to nonverbal and verbal cues, and can quickly adjust your communication style to what works best for the context.
You have asked people for money to help achieve their vision of a more just world. And you’re excited to learn from Corporate Accountability’s decades of experience of a people-powered organizing and fundraising approach. You believe that asking for and giving money are both powerful acts of social change and are committed to resourcing long-term effective campaigning.
You can easily adapt and shift when conditions change or opportunities arise. You view unexpected situations as a chance to come up with creative solutions that might be even better than the original plan. And you’re ready to move forward with new pathways to challenges that come up when heading towards your goals.
You care about the details. You are ready to make connections between the threads you hear in a conversation in order to remember them for the next time you’re in touch. Whether it’s tracking folks' gift commitments to noticing a wrong address in our database, you’re organized and accurate in keeping records.
You know who you are and what you need to bring your best self forward and do your best work in an independent setting. You’re always learning, reflecting, and integrating what you learn to keep yourself motivated and on track towards your goals. You are comfortable getting feedback from others and applying it into how you approach and practice your work.
You are excited to travel to cities and metro-areas across the U.S. as a part of your role. You are ready to travel 5-8 times a year for house parties or fundraising events, in-person meetings with donors, and/or donor network gatherings. 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 or other relevant fields.
What you’ll be responsible for in the day-to-day
Build relationships with current and prospective members and philanthropic partners to raise and bank gifts that will enable us to scale up our transformative campaigns. Maintain a portfolio of donors of around 75 donors, engaging them to take action that furthers our campaign areas and working alongside members to make an impact towards a more just world. You’ll be connecting with folks over the phone, via email, by video meetings, and sometimes in person. There will sometimes be work outside of regular hours to ensure we can reach people in different time zones.
Drive the effective cultivation and stewardship of our members: Through deep relationship-building, inspire them to get involved in ways ranging from increasing their giving to bringing in new people to taking high-level action to advance our campaigns. This might look like having deep one-on-one conversations with members to increase their engagement, selecting campaign updates to share based on your knowledge of their values and vision, or thanking a brand new donor for joining our work.
Help bring on new members, leading engagement with people who are interested in our mission at events or virtually. Maintain relationships with potential donors, engaging them in our campaigns. Work with the entire fundraising team to implement strategic tactics for meeting new people which could include hosting events in-person, webinars, etc.
Ensure solid record keeping on your conversations and key notes from your members to carry our relationships forward in our Salesforce donor database and systems with our financial team.
Collaborate within our team and with other units to help ensure we have what we need to fundraise. This could look like reaching out to the campaigns team for the latest updates, working with communications on materials, or giving input on systems that support our team to evolve them as we go.
Travel 5-8 times a year for membership cultivation, meeting with members in our membership base and donors in your portfolio.
Actively participate in organization-wide planning, fundraising, racial equity work, recruitment, and campaign activities.

Full time
The take-away Ready to take on some of the most powerful forces in our society? We’re looking for an executive director or two co-directors who apply together to lead a fierce, passionate, and global team that's holding transnational corporations accountable and helping create a world where all people and the planet can thrive.
Why you’ll love coming to work every day You’ll help change the world by bringing your vision and strategies to our 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 45 years, we’ve been exposing and challenging the abuses of the likes of Nestlé, Chevron, Philip Morris International, Coca Cola, and more. We don’t back down, and we run campaigns until we win. You’ll work with awesome people. Join a team of creative, kind, determined, optimistic, and solutions-oriented folks. We work hard, celebrate victories large and small, and center collaboration. You will keep advancing on your leadership journey. We are all learning and evolving. You’ll thrive here as you develop new skills, tackle new challenges, learn, and grow. And you will also develop leadership opportunities for your Corporate Accountability colleagues. 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 from communities who are actively targeted by 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. By “Global South,” we mean the state of people and communities around the world, including in the U.S., who are experiencing multiple and intersecting global systems of oppression. Our unique culture has been fostered by a long history of women and queer leadership 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
For more than four decades, Corporate Accountability has moved millions of people to challenge corporate power through hard-hitting and fearless campaigns that achieve victories for health, human rights, democracy, and the planet. We do this by, among other strategies, exposing corporate abuse, shifting the public climate, and mobilizing people to take action, with a focus on the Global South. Our campaigns are based on research and proven practices. That’s where you come in. We’re looking for an executive director or co-director team to lead a dynamic and fierce organization with an almost 50-year track record of success in curbing corporate power. We've got 50 staff and contractors located around the world, an operating budget of over $8.5 million in 2024, and a healthy reserve fund. The executive leadership will steer and steward Corporate Accountability in a manner that is consistent with our mission and values. The executive director(s) will manage a team of 5-7 senior directors with responsibility for research, policy, racial equity, communications, membership, fundraising, campaigns, and operations. Our executive director(s) will direct strategy, improve organizational performance, and shape culture while overseeing day-to-day activities. Reporting to an engaged 10-person Board of Directors, the executive leader(s) will ensure Corporate Accountability’s finances are healthy, and our performance and results are mission-driven and effective.
Who you are Corporate Accountability seeks a strategic, experienced, innovative, and values-aligned leader or pair of co-leaders to guide us through the next chapter of the organization as we strive to counter the power of corporate abuse. While no one person is likely to tick every box on our wish list, the successful candidate will demonstrate most of the following qualifications. If you are applying as a co-director pair, you will collectively possess most of these skills and qualifications.
You may notice that our list of qualifications does not call for specific educational degrees or years of work experience. We are looking for a visionary, strategic, confident, and practical leader or co-leaders. We seek someone who can work effectively alongside our dedicated staff, high-level donors and members, grassroots partners, and other allies. Our next leader(s) will be able to hold their own against CEOs and other representatives of transnational corporate power.
We value leadership whether it is forged in formal education or practical experience; in one’s personal life or on the job. We welcome qualified candidates from a wide range of backgrounds. If you don’t exactly fit preconceived ideas of executive leadership or our stated qualifications, but you know you have skills and experiences that are transferable to this position, please apply! Tell us about yourself and why you should be Corporate Accountability’s next executive director or co-director team.
Experienced Social Justice Campaigner

You have direct experience with grassroots organizing, corporate campaigning, or waging other campaigns for justice in the Global South. You understand how social justice movements work in Global South communities. Experience with corporate-focused campaigns is a strong plus. Skilled Manager ● You most likely hold at least 10 years of experience as a manager with a bulk of those years in an organizational leadership role. We recognize that leadership opportunities are not always offered equitably, and so we are open to applications from otherwise qualified candidates with fewer years of experience. ● You are effective at hiring and leading teams, and you are a compassionate, coaching-focused supervisor who brings out the best in those you work with. You have the skills to manage a remote, global organization operating in multiple time zones. ● You are adept at managing through change and conflict. You are an active listener who values building trust as the foundation of good relationships.
Knowledgeable of Non-profit Operations ● You have the practical experience to oversee nonprofit operations alongside a staff team that bring expertise in their areas, including financial management, human resources, and legal compliance and risk management. You also have experience working with a board of directors that is responsible for the governance of the organization. Talented Communicator & Fundraiser ● You are a proven fundraiser with expertise in building relationships with individual major donors. At Corporate Accountability, $5k-plus is considered a major gift and our executive leader(s) manage a portfolio of 6-figure donors. Experience fundraising from foundations or membership programs is a plus. ● You are an effective communicator. You are a persuasive storyteller who can forge partnerships with both internal colleagues and external stakeholders. Collaborative Leader ● You are committed to distributed leadership practices. You want to build a leaderful and liberatory organization that values and honors people of all identities and backgrounds, including but not limited to race, gender, and class. ● Your commitment to shared leadership also means you are open to feedback and being held accountable with love and rigor. Equally important, you know when to make the hard decisions, and when and how to hold people accountable to our shared work. ● Your leadership style is human-centered, joyful, and collaborative. You approach your leadership role with humility and resiliency, and you are comfortable leading from behind, from the front, and from alongside a bold and talented team. Rooted in Global South Perspective ● You demonstrate a commitment in your daily work to advancing equity and ending systems of oppression based on colonialism, race, gender, sexual orientation, language, class/income, or disability. ● You (or at least one co-director) can point to a significant history of living, working or campaigning in the Global South. By “Global South,” we mean the state of people and communities around the world, including in the U.S., who are experiencing multiple and intersecting global systems of oppression. ● You are most likely, but not necessarily, bilingual with English as one of your languages, and even better, you are comfortable in a language spoken in the Global South.
What you’ll be responsible for in the day-to-day ● Provide vision and leadership to expand and strengthen Corporate Accountability's capacity to wage and win multiple campaigns. ● Build relationships with community members, including campaign partners, donors, allies, researchers, reporters, and policy analysts. ● Ensure effective management of Corporate Accountability staff in a manner that is collaborative and liberatory. ● Manage the organization in a manner that emphasizes equity and inclusion and centers the voices and experiences of Black, Brown, and Indigenous communities, and people of the Global South. ● Maintain and grow the financial strength of the organization, by both ensuring effective and strategic financial management and taking on a leadership role on the fundraising team. ● Facilitate organizational direction, ensure effective planning, and provide operational leadership toward the achievement of Corporate Accountability’s mission and goals. ● Increase visibility of the organization and its work to members, potential members, and allies. ● Position the board of directors to serve the organization toward maximum campaign impact. ● Guide Corporate Accountability’s overall strategy relative to transnational corporations, government officials, and international agencies. ● Make hiring decisions and establish rules, procedures, and standards across the organization.
Practical details Salary: $160,000-$180,000 at 100% FTE. Our leader(s) will work full-time schedules (32 hours weekly) and so whether a pair of co-directors or solo directors, each person will be compensated at the same amount. Corporate Accountability has established an equity-focused salary scale that ensures the highest and lowest salaries in the organization are not more than 3:1 in ratio. We do not negotiate salaries with candidates, also for equity reasons. Location & Work Authorization: Corporate Accountability is a global organization with staff and Board based around the world. Our leadership is required to reside in and must be authorized to work in the United States. Generally, the executive director or co-directors can expect to travel approximately six to eight times a year for internal planning and team building priorities (often to Boston). Additionally, travel to achieve fundraising and campaign objectives can be expected, at the discretion of the leader(s).
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 working hours are 10 am - 4 pm ET on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, with flexibility to determine your remaining hours of the week in coordination with your team. Given the nature of campaigning, rapid response moments, and working with organizers and activists at an international organization, there will be instances where you would need to be available outside of standard business hours. Benefits: Our comprehensive benefits 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); Flexible Spending Account (FSA) options for transit, health care, and dependent care; voluntary life insurance; an employee assistance program; and 401(k) with employer match. ● Generous time off policies, including one month of personal vacation time, one week of office closure for collective rest, holidays, and unlimited wellness days to prioritize health. ● $40/month home office stipend, with $250 provided at the time of hire to help set up a home office. ● Both internal and external training and leadership development opportunities.
Corporate Accountability’s staff and Board are fully committed to a successful leadership transition and will work with our next leader(s) to identify learning edges and provide appropriate professional development and support, including ongoing executive coaching.

What you’ll do
For more than four decades, Corporate Accountability has moved millions of people to challenge corporate power through hard-hitting campaigns that win victories for health, human rights, democracy, and the planet. Far-reaching media -- paired with strategic grassroots organizing -- is at the core of what we do. Our media program is central to shifting the public climate, making possible change that feels impossible, and ensuring our campaigns and research are getting out into the world.
That’s where you come in. We’re looking for someone to bring leadership and collaboration to our media program. The heart of the job is securing groundbreaking, widespread media coverage that exposes corporate abuse and motivates people to take action with us. You’ll develop compelling communications that shift the narrative on issues from climate change and water privatization to food and tobacco industry abuses. You’ll lead in building and deepening strong reciprocal relationships with campaign partners, reporters, and thought leaders, while furthering our shared mission in all aspects, from campaigning to fundraising. You’ll work in partnership with a broad, cross-organizational team collaborating to craft sharp messaging and then get it out in the world.

You have a deep understanding of the power of language and communications to move people to action and create change. You have practice and experience in communications strategies and are a top-notch writer and skilled editor, and you are fluent in framing and messaging best practices.

The take-away
Ready to take on some of the most powerful forces in our society? We’re looking for a Director of Media and Press Relations 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
For more than four decades, Corporate Accountability has moved millions of people to challenge corporate power through hard-hitting campaigns that win victories for health, human rights, democracy, and the planet. Far-reaching media -- paired with strategic grassroots organizing -- is at the core of what we do. Our media program is central to shifting the public climate, making possible change that feels impossible, and ensuring our campaigns and research are getting out into the world.
That’s where you come in. We’re looking for someone to bring leadership and collaboration to our media program. The heart of the job is securing groundbreaking, widespread media coverage that exposes corporate abuse and motivates people to take action with us. You’ll develop compelling communications that shift the narrative on issues from climate change and water privatization to food and tobacco industry abuses. You’ll lead in building and deepening strong reciprocal relationships with campaign partners, reporters, and thought leaders, while furthering our shared mission in all aspects, from campaigning to fundraising. You’ll work in partnership with a broad, cross-organizational team collaborating to craft sharp messaging and then get it out in the world. You will use your imagination and creativity to collaboratively lead a thoughtful media program and the work of the broader communications team. You will continue to build widespread awareness of the organization, our mission, and our 40+-year track record of success in curbing corporate power.
Who you are
The rampant abuses of corporations and the outrageous amount of power they have make 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, colonialism, and anti-Blackness.
You have a deep understanding of the power of language and communications to move people to action and create change. You have practice and experience in communications strategies and are a top-notch writer and skilled editor, and you are fluent in framing and messaging best practices.
You can produce, collaboratively and independently, media that reaches a broad range of audiences, including reporters, government delegates, corporate executives, and grassroots organizers - depending on the strategy.

The take-away
Ready to take on some of the most powerful forces in our society? We’re looking for a Media Director 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
For more than four decades, Corporate Accountability has moved millions of people to challenge corporate power through hard-hitting campaigns that win victories for health, human rights, democracy, and the planet. Far-reaching media -- paired with strategic grassroots organizing -- is at the core of what we do. Our media program is central to shifting the public climate, making possible change that feels impossible, and ensuring our campaigns and research are getting out into the world.
That’s where you come in. We’re looking for someone to bring leadership and collaboration to our media program. The heart of the job is securing groundbreaking, widespread media coverage that exposes corporate abuse and motivates people to take action with us. You’ll develop compelling communications that shift the narrative on issues from climate change and water privatization to food and tobacco industry abuses. You’ll lead in building and deepening strong reciprocal relationships with campaign partners, reporters, and thought leaders, while furthering our shared mission in all aspects, from campaigning to fundraising. You’ll work in partnership with a broad, cross-organizational team collaborating to craft sharp messaging and then get it out in the world. You will use your imagination and creativity to collaboratively lead a thoughtful media program and the work of the broader communications team. You will continue to build widespread awareness of the organization, our mission, and our 40+-year track record of success in curbing corporate power.
Who you are
The rampant abuses of corporations and the outrageous amount of power they have make 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, colonialism, and anti-Blackness.
You have a deep understanding of the power of language and communications to move people to action and create change. You have practice and experience in communications strategies and are a top-notch writer and skilled editor, and you are fluent in framing and messaging best practices.
You can produce, collaboratively and independently, media that reaches a broad range of audiences, including reporters, government delegates, corporate executives, and grassroots organizers - depending on the strategy.
Communications is at the heart of your theory of change, and you view comms and organizing work as inextricably linked. You can communicate complex ideas simply and clearly, and are highly organized in your thinking and systems. You understand that strategic planning is essential to success and have experience creating and implementing both short- and long-term plans.
You are a tenacious communicator and organizer to your core. You thrive on building authentic relationships. You know social change happens person to person -- so you’re not afraid to strike up conversation with a stranger, direct message someone on Twitter, or hop on the phone to pitch a reporter on their next big story. You can build relationships with integrity and build power for global change with people from diverse backgrounds.
You are a great supervisor. You lead with compassion, managing and collaborating with staff toward goals, and encouraging people to lead from their positions.
You keep up to date with global media standards, and are always thinking outside the box. You creatively work within the realm of non-traditional media, and are excited to to step into this role to further bring Corporate Accountability’s work to new multimedia platforms.
You have 5-7 years of experience in organizing, communications, or other relevant fields.
What you’ll be responsible for in the day-to-day
Lead the media team —from playing a key role in on-boarding new media members, supervising staff, and training staff outside of the unit to support media work. You will be guiding the vision and strategy behind our media work across the organization, and working with your team to ensure our plans become a reality.
Build and maintain strong relationships with reporters and thought leaders —whether that’s grabbing a coffee (virtually or in person), talking on the phone, commenting on their social media posts, or anything in between.
Play a leading role in securing media coverage for the organization. You will lead in assessing and employing innovative and effective media strategies in coordination with our campaigns and digital teams, including running an effective spokesperson training program.
Write and project manage talking points and media briefs for a variety of audiences from the U.S. to the Global South, including government officials, policy experts, public health experts, and reporters.
Draft compelling copy for traditional and social media that is inclusive; advances racial, economic, and gender equity; and educates and inspires people around the world to take action.
Actively participate in organization-wide planning, fundraising, racial equity work, recruitment, and campaign activities.

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
Water is life–but there are far too many people across the globe who do not have access to the basic human right of safe water. Transnational water corporations are exploiting and exacerbating this crisis to gain control of and privatize water systems, putting profit over the health and livelihoods of millions in the U.S. and around the world. And water privatizers and entities like the World Bank are targeting the Global South, and Africa in particular, as an expansion region for the water privatization market. That’s why we need to organize to prevent water privatization globally and promote well-funded, democratically-accountable, and equitable public water solutions.
For over a decade, Corporate Accountability has partnered deeply with organizers and activists from around the world to run powerful grassroots campaigns that have successfully stopped water privatization in its tracks. From Lagos, Nigeria to Flint, Michigan and beyond, we work with our partners to expose the abuses of private water corporations and stop them from taking control of public water systems. And our collective victories have sent shockwaves through the industry, compelling strategic shifts and transformative change. You’ll be a part of the team harnessing this momentum to advance water justice around the globe–and stop the private water industry’s schemes.
Our water campaign is built on deep relationship-building, clear collective goals and sharp strategies, and strong systems and coordination. That’s where you come in. You’ll deepen our existing partnerships and build new ones with activists in the U.S. and around the world. You’ll help develop and execute strategy meetings with your team and allies to create the plans we need to win. And you’ll manage the financial and logistical systems that are critical to keep us on track towards our goals and our vision of a world of safe, democratically controlled water systems for all.
Who you are
The rampant abuses of corporations and the outrageous amount of power they have make you mad as hell–and you want to do something about it.
You have a commitment to advancing racial equity and dismantling 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, colonialism, and anti-Blackness.
You are an organizer and campaigner to your core, and you have a deep understanding of power dynamics—including how your own position affects those dynamics. You thrive on building authentic relationships; you know trust is earned and you know how to earn it. You know how grassroots campaigning can impact powerful institutions, how to develop tactics that connect to overall strategies, how to move people to action—all the while paying close and thoughtful attention to complex cultural, political, and interpersonal dynamics.
You're an experienced project manager. You know how to develop systems, tools, and processes to get your team from point A to point B. Your keen eye for detail helps keep things on track -- but when unanticipated challenges arise, you're skilled at navigating changed conditions to move your team toward success.
You know how to craft a strong campaign plan from goals to tactics, and expertly facilitate meetings and processes to implement your plan. You can bring together a group of diverse participants, build on shared goals and visions, and work toward strategic outcomes. You are skilled at keeping things moving, while also knowing when it’s necessary to slow down; you know how to delegate effectively.
You know the power of compelling communication and have the skills to craft engaging written content that moves people to action.
Spanish, French, and/or Portuguese language skills are a bonus.
You have 3 -5 years of experience in social justice organizing or other relevant fields.
What you’ll be responsible for in the day-to-day
Play a lead role in water campaign coordination, including leading strategic planning meetings internally and with allies, internal coordination huddles, and coalition calls. Given the international scope of our campaign, you will be working across timezones.
Provide robust administrative and coordination support. This includes a lead role in the campaign budgeting process and cash flow management, coordination with key partners on joint fundraising priorities such as foundation proposals, review of campaign materials, and project management.
Collaborate with team and key allies to develop and implement strategies and tactics to challenge water privatization and advance the human right to water.
Organize closely with our lead partners in Nigeria, local activists on the African continent, and organizers and activists in cities in the U.S. challenging water privatization in their communities, helping ensure access to the logistical, technological, research, and communications support necessary to run successful campaign actions.
Partner with people from public officials to local activists to international allies to monitor, develop, and seize opportunities to stop water privatization and build international visibility and solidarity with water justice struggles around the world.
Represent the organization at ally convenings, in policymaking spaces, and with our members.
Actively participate in organization-wide planning, fundraising, racial equity work, recruitment, and campaign activities.
Salary and benefits :
Salary range: $52,500- $55,100 commensurate with experience.

For almost a decade, Corporate Accountability has partnered deeply with organizers in Lagos, Nigeria, to run a powerful grassroots campaign that has successfully kept the privatization of Lagos’ water systems at bay. Building on the ongoing success of this campaign, we and the Lagos organizers at Corporate Accountability and Public Participation Africa (CAPPA) are teaming up with organizers across the African region and internationally to support local campaigns that will prevent water privatization in countries across the continent. You will build on the momentum behind this campaign and help direct it toward successful outcomes—while attending carefully to Global North-Global South power dynamics and advancing justice and corporate accountability.
Our joint campaign in the African region is built on decades of trust and campaigning between Corporate Accountability and CAPPA. Long before our water campaign was launched, our two teams worked together on the WHO’s global tobacco treaty in the early 2000s—which, thanks in part to our partnership, includes the first corporate accountability measures in an international treaty. Your job will include maintaining and deepening this powerful partnership, identifying and building relationships with new campaign partners, and facilitating and furthering our shared mission in all aspects, from campaigning to fundraising.

The take-away
Ready to take on some of the most powerful forces in our society? We’re looking for an associate campaign director 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 LGBTQIA+ 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
Water is life–but there are far too many people across the globe who do not have access to the basic human right of safe water. Transnational water corporations are exploiting and exacerbating this crisis to gain control of and privatize water systems, putting profit over the health and livelihoods of millions. And water privatizers and entities like the World Bank are targeting the Global South, and Africa in particular, as an expansion region for the water privatization market. That’s why we need to organize to prevent water privatization globally and promote well-funded, democratically-accountable, and equitable public water solutions. And that’s where you come in.
For almost a decade, Corporate Accountability has partnered deeply with organizers in Lagos, Nigeria, to run a powerful grassroots campaign that has successfully kept the privatization of Lagos’ water systems at bay. Building on the ongoing success of this campaign, we and the Lagos organizers at Corporate Accountability and Public Participation Africa (CAPPA) are teaming up with organizers across the African region and internationally to support local campaigns that will prevent water privatization in countries across the continent. You will build on the momentum behind this campaign and help direct it toward successful outcomes—while attending carefully to Global North-Global South power dynamics and advancing justice and corporate accountability.
Our joint campaign in the African region is built on decades of trust and campaigning between Corporate Accountability and CAPPA. Long before our water campaign was launched, our two teams worked together on the WHO’s global tobacco treaty in the early 2000s—which, thanks in part to our partnership, includes the first corporate accountability measures in an international treaty. Your job will include maintaining and deepening this powerful partnership, identifying and building relationships with new campaign partners, and facilitating and furthering our shared mission in all aspects, from campaigning to fundraising.
Who you are
The rampant abuses of corporations and the outrageous amount of power they have make you mad as hell–and you want to do something about it.
You have a commitment to advancing racial equity and dismantling 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, colonialism, and anti-Blackness.
You know how to craft a strong campaign plan from goals to tactics, and expertly facilitate meetings and processes to implement your plan. You can bring together a group of diverse participants, build on shared goals and visions, and work toward strategic outcomes. You are skilled at keeping things moving, while also knowing when it’s necessary to slow down; you know how to delegate effectively.
You are an organizer and campaigner to your core, and you have a deep understanding of power dynamics—including how your own position affects those dynamics. You thrive on building authentic relationships; you know trust is earned and you know how to earn it. You know how grassroots campaigning can impact powerful institutions, how to develop tactics that connect to overall strategies, how to move people to action—all the while paying close and thoughtful attention to complex cultural, political, and interpersonal dynamics.
You are not afraid to ask for money because you understand that fundraising is an essential part of building power. You have experience framing your and allies’ work in terms that resonate with funders and successfully asking people to financially support work that helps them achieve their vision of the world.
You have 4-6 years of experience in social justice organizing or other relevant fields.
What you’ll be responsible for in the day-to-day
Collaborate with team and key allies to develop and implement strategies and tactics to challenge water privatization and advance the human right to water, with a focus on our joint campaigning in Africa.
Coordinate strategic planning meetings internally and with allies, facilitate internal coordination huddles, and support the drafting and review of campaigns materials.
Organize closely with CAPPA, our lead partners in Nigeria, and local activists on the African continent challenging water privatization in their communities and help ensure access to the logistical, technological, research, and communications support necessary to run successful campaign actions.
Partner with people from government officials to international allies to monitor, develop, and seize opportunities to build international visibility and solidarity for the campaign and stand in solidarity with water justice struggles around the world.
Represent the organization at ally convenings, in policymaking spaces, and as an organizational spokesperson in the media.
Provide robust budget management and fundraising support. This includes developing and implementing annual grants fundraising plans, tracking internal campaign budgets and campaign partner expenses, project managing grant submission processes, managing relationships with key funders, and providing major gifts organizers the information they need to power our joint campaigns.
Actively participate in organization-wide planning, fundraising, racial equity work, recruitment, and campaign activities.
Salary and benefits:
Salary range: $54,100 - $56, 900 commensurate with experience.
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 vacation, sick time, and holiday policies.
Both internal and external training and leadership development opportunities.
Energetic, collaborative, and social campaign environment.
Location :
Remote based on public health recommendations around COVID-19 centering the safety and health of our staff, with eventual transition into our campaign headquarters in downtown Boston, MA.

Effective, efficient, and secure tech and finance operations make it possible for our organizers and allies to wage hard-hitting tactics that are helping to end corporate abuse.
Whether it’s supporting allies in Africa to implement tech security, or processing the donations we receive from donors around the country, your work will require creativity, patience, and an obsessive attention to detail. You’re going to get to know everyone in the organization and many external partners as you collaborate with them on their tech and operations needs.

You have a commitment to advancing racial equity and transforming 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, colonialism, and anti-Blackness.
You are down with technology and troubleshooting. Most likely you’re the one your grandma/uncle/colleagues/friends call when they’re in a technological quandary. 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 have experience maintaining systems and managing projects from start to finish. You can meet deadlines and collaborate with colleagues to move a project along. When something doesn’t go as planned, you’re ready to adapt and adjust to get back on track.
You’re a numbers person—organizing spreadsheets, managing data, and keeping track of every last detail brings you great satisfaction—maybe even joy…
…and you’re also a people person. You’re an organizer at heart and maybe by training, and you have experience working with a wide range of people from various racial and cultural backgrounds. You know that connecting with and training people means being a good listener as well as an adept communicator.
You have 1-3 years of experience at a nonprofit, preferably with a background in IT, finance, administration, organizing, or other relevant fields.
What you’ll be responsible for in the day-to-day
Help keep everyone connected in our in-person and remote workplaces. You’ll provide technical support and training to staff, interns, contractors, and allies across the globe on multiple operating systems and computer software, web apps, communications apps, video conferencing, and other needs.
Maintain systems, including computers, phones, networks, and servers, managing the day-to-day operations of these processes.
Implement and maintain the organization’s security measures.
Play a lead role in supporting key administrative systems within our finance team using your detail oriented, systems-minded skills to ensure we are processing donations and payments and following protocols to keep these processes secure.
Provide technology and security support for campaign, fundraising, and board-related actions, events, and meetings.

Senior Membership Manager
The take-away
Ready to take on some of the most powerful forces in our society? We’re looking for a senior membership manager 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 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 seasoned, 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 those who bear the brunt of corporate abuse: women, Black and Indigenous people and other people of color , low-income people, people in the Global South, and LGBTQ+ folks around the world. Our 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 the one who works most closely with them to help realize all of the power they bring to this movement.
Corporate Accountability is a membership organization and has been for more than four decades. It’s one of our greatest strengths because our members give us the political independence to wage hard-hitting campaigns that challenge entrenched 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 their support also gives us the ability to react nimbly when things change.
Your job will be to grow and retain the monthly donor program, using your creativity, your detail-oriented prowess with numbers, and your people skills. As the primary contact for our monthly donors, you’ll build authentic relationships that inspire them to continue their sustained support. You’ll play an important role in the team that’s advancing racial justice and equity through organizing with our members. And, you’ll collaborate with staff across units to develop avenues for members to take actions that add up to significant campaign impact.
Who you are
The rampant abuses of corporations and the outrageous amount of power they have make you mad as hell—and you want to do something about it.
You understand that campaigning for justice must include working to dismantle white supremacy, institutional racism, colonialism, and anti-Blackness. You have a commitment to advancing racial equity and transforming systems of oppression, and are ready to do this in your day-to-day work.
You know how to ask people for money. You’re enthusiastic and beyond comfortable doing so because you know that activating more people to fund long-term, effective campaigning is essential. You believe that relationship-based organizing (including fundraising) is how we change the world—and you’ve got the interpersonal skills to make it happen.
Problem solving with spreadsheets? Math and numbers? Yes, please! You are excited about and know how to build fundraising budgets, keep track of progress toward fundraising goals, and come up with math-driven, creative tactics toward achieving those goals.
You have experience managing projects from start to finish, meeting tough deadlines, and managing both up and laterally to get what you need. When something doesn’t go as planned, you’re ready to adapt and adjust to get back on track.
You have experience working with databases, and your strong attention to detail means you’re great at cleaning them up and you’re ready to keep our donor’s information secure and up-to-date.
You have at least 3 years of related workplace experience with a focus on fundraising or organizing, ideally in a development, nonprofit, or campaign setting.
What you’ll be responsible for in the day-to-day
Organize with staff, board, and members to plan and carry out successful growth strategies that engage current members, bring in new members, raise funds, and generate actions.
Ensure members have a great experience when they reach out to Corporate Accountability on the phone or digitally—continuing to deepen relationships whether they need to update their credit card information or want to take action.
Implement regular phone banks, working with staff and volunteers to call our members and engage them to take action and donate to the organization. You’ll be responsible for providing everything from administrative support to joining the training team, including being available for evening phoning during campaign pushes.
Implement tried-and-true retention strategies and develop new ones that keep our monthly donors giving to the organization for years.
Actively participate in a small staff working group that’s focused on member power, and advancing racial equity and justice through our membership programs. You’ll help shape strategies to organize and engage more people to join and stay with Corporate Accountability because they can see the impact they are making in the world with us.
Make sure all information for monthly donors is up-to-date in the database.
Actively participate in organization-wide planning , fundraising, recruitment, racial equity advancement, and campaign activities.
Salary and benefits:
Salary range: $47,500 to $55,000, commensurate with experience.
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 vacation, sick time, and holiday policies.
Both internal and external training and leadership development opportunities.
Energetic, collaborative, and social campaign environment.
Location : Remote based on public health recommendations around COVID-19 centering the safety and health of our staff, with eventual transition into our Campaign Headquarters in downtown Boston, MA.
