$140,000.00/yr - $150,000.00/yr OVERVIEW The climate emergency is the defining challenge of our time, demanding an urgent and transformative response.
The window for small, incremental action has closed; the moment for bold, emergency-level action is now. Action for the Climate Emergency (ACE) operates at the intersection of clean energy advocacy, strategic media, and civic participation to accelerate global decarbonization.
Through cutting-edge media strategies, ACE combats climate disinformation, flattens the curve of clean energy opposition, increases diverse participation in our democracy, and inspires meaningful action. Our programs engage tens of millions of people annually, mobilizing audiences that traditional climate efforts often overlook. ACE’s dynamic and diverse team thrives in a fast-paced, high-stakes environment, united by a shared commitment to addressing the climate crisis. As we expand to meet this critical moment, we seek talented individuals eager to make an impact. JOB SUMMARY It’s a regular Friday at the Lab: In a workshop you’re leading, the civic engagement team just came up with a new approach to Gen Z engagement. Meanwhile, one of your researchers is piloting an AI tool that could revolutionize grant reporting. You head back to your desk to design next week's hack-a-thon that might produce our next $10M program. This is the kind of impact we're building toward at ACE's
