Greenpeace/San Francisco, CA

ACTION CAMPAIGNER / ACTION COORDINATOR

SAN FRANCISCO, CA

TO APPLY: Please submit resume and cover letter by 2/5/2010

SUMMARY DESCRIPTION:

Greenpeace is best known for non-violent direct actions—the activities we deploy to defend the planet, advance our campaigns, and inspire citizens to become active in working toward a more green and peaceful planet. A sampling of images from our 35+-year history shows the breadth of our activities and extent of our capabilities. The opportunity for creativity and innovation is vast.

The Greenpeace USA Action Team develops and coordinates non-violent direct actions in support of Greenpeace campaigns. Action Campaigners work with issue campaigns to identify strategic moments and creative ideas for actions and other forms of direct communication. They play a critical role in imagining, then deploying, the kind of creative events that keep Greenpeace a dynamic, effective, and vital organization.

Are there easier jobs? Yes. Could there be a cooler job? Unlikely.

We seek someone with experience in generating creative ideas, campaigning, field logistics and direct action coordination. The successful candidate has a strong understanding of campaign strategies and experience in developing objectives and tactics to support them. You have experience leading project teams of various sizes and are adept at delegation and coordination. You are skilled at communication; planning; and personnel, and project management. You can run effective and efficient meetings, use IM, SMS, email, the phone and direct interaction with real people dynamically and effectively, and you can juggle chainsaws and butterflies. You know that a desk can be as effective a tool as a rigid-hull inflatable and that both need to be used effectively. You work well under pressure and are unfazed by a reliably chaotic atmosphere. You are an excellent strategic thinker and are skilled in conflict resolution. All members of the Action Team also coordinate field events and train key activists in project planning, technical skills and logistical coordination. If that isn’t enough, they are responsible for the health and safety of all individuals under their care in the field.

Perhaps most importantly, you have a high degree of initiative, intuition, creativity, passion, zaniness, ambition, and an unconventional way of thinking. A commitment to non-violent direct action as means of effecting change is a must. The position requires potentially extensive travel both within the US and internationally as well as an abundant patience for meetings (without calling too many) and a savvy for finding ways to move work forward.

We understand this position is a unique one and do not expect anyone to have direct experience in every area listed above. Don’t let the specialization discourage you – what’s most important is a combination of sophisticated strategic thinking and wildly conceptual thinking mixed with a healthy dose of mischief and a baseline of integrity and responsibility.

While not required, while the successful candidate has probably always secretly admired MacGyver, wanted to be Robin Hood and liked James Bond’s ingenious toys more than they actually liked him, when it comes right down to it the folks they most want to emulate are Alfred, Q and Gandhi.
