This job is for you if

...you’re super driven and ambitious about building people-power movements for justice; you have deep experience with both online and offline campaigning/organizing in Europe; you think strategically, enjoy coaching, work really well with people; you’re creative and hungry to see change happen; and you’re nimble at finding ways to meet needs and shape solutions. You also are excellent at running an online/offline campaign and its component pieces yourself. This is for someone who finds using tech tools easy, wants to invest deeply and take leadership in SMT's work and be in the trenches working on campaigns too.

About SMT.

Social Movement Technologies’ mission is to provide organizing strategy, training and campaign support to build people-power for justice and win in the digital age. We're a non-profit/NGO movement support group, driven 100% to meet movement needs. We're super lean - we do lots with little, just like most of the groups we work with.

SMT’s small but highly effective team has trained staff from over 6800+ groups and unions over its first 13 years, and worked with 240+ groups on campaigns more in-depth. Staff team members are based on five continents.

SMT provides the in-depth digital campaign support and training that staff and activists need in the digital age. Our goal is to expand access by driving down the cost and providing excellent online learning experiences to deepen digital organizing proficiency dramatically. We focus on using digital campaigning to amplify in‑person action, broaden support, activate supporters, and pressure targets.

Location . Social Movement Technologies is a 100% remote organization. For this position you must be located in Europe.

What you’ll do

:

Provide a range of campaign strategy and implementation support for partner groups, with the support of senior SMT team members

Build and maintain relationships with a range of organizing networks

Develop new online training to meet movement needs across Europe

Build an instructor team of practitioners from across the continent and help to shape and do outreach

Keep your fingers on the pulse of new tech and digital developments in the enormous diversity of Europe, testing out tools and comparing them so that SMT can help European groups sift through the options and make choices appropriate to their needs

What we’re looking for in you

:

You speak and write fluent English, as a non‑negotiable, but ideally, speak another language dominant on the continent.

You have a minimum of 5 years of relevant campaign experience in which you held responsibility that included digital campaigning.

You have a knack for campaigning and understand what it takes to make a difference, including how to build power on the issue, who we need with us, messaging that will move people, and the steps to get you there.

You have broad experience in running issue campaigns, for example doing your own memes with a sense for design and messaging, or setting up Facebook ad campaigns - not relying on other staffers for creative or ad setup, or building out a rigorous activist pipeline. You've worked as part of smaller and not just larger teams.

You have experience with coaching and training people.

You have management and organizational skills that enable you to keep a number of projects on track and delegate to other members of our team and contractors.

You have previous experience working remotely, are highly self‑motivated and need to be doing work that involves constant learning.

You are an activist yourself, not just doing this work as paid employment.

Ideally you have a history of investing in roles for the long haul - we're looking for someone who wants to make SMT their home and build the work over multiple years.

Compensation and Hours.

This is a full‑time position. SMT's culture is hard‑driving and highly collaborative. We're looking for people driven and passionate about their work and building justice in the world - and who feel privileged to be able to do this work as more of a life calling than a job. ( Expect work weeks to range 40-50 hours, averaging 45 ) SMT is a terrific place for extensive access to skill‑building and professional development. SMT has a transparent global pay scale that varies based on experience and country cost of living. Healthcare contribution, generous paid time off. SMT has internal career ladders with significant growth potential in both responsibility and compensation.
