Full Job Description

Environment Illinois is seeking an entry-level campaign associate to help lead campaigns to protect pollinators and other wildlife.

Illinois is home to a diverse range of wildlife and habitats but sadly, many of these species and habitats are in danger of disappearing. Bees are nature’s best pollinators, buzzing from home gardens to wild meadows to the fields that grow America’s food. But bee populations are plummeting. The rusty patched bumblebee has disappeared across nearly 90% of its range and is listed as a state endangered species in Illinois.

Key Responsibilities

Our Campaign Associate will work to help advance solutions in Illinois that protect wildlife including pollinators. This position requires exercising discretion and independent judgment in making decisions in matters of significance.

Build powerful coalitions: Reach out to a broad range of organizations across the political spectrum to demonstrate support for our campaign goals.
Earn traditional media and social media attention: Organize news conferences and write opinion pieces. Build a following on social media for your campaign.
Organize events and work with volunteers. Organize webinars, community events and public meetings. Recruit organizations and members of the public to attend and participate.
Lobby elected officials: Meet with decision makers - from city council members to state legislators - to make the case for our campaign goals. When a critical vote is happening on your campaign, work to demonstrate the support you’ve been building on the ground to help line up the votes needed to win.
Research and write persuasive campaign materials: Catalog and analyze data relevant to the issue and our policy proposals to help influence public debate and earn media attention for our cause.
Recruit new people to your team: Help build your team by recruiting volunteers, interns and full-time staff.
Run a grassroots campaign office each summer: Run a campaign office for the summer, knocking on doors to raise money to support our campaigns, build our organization and membership, and help build critical and timely grassroots support to win key campaigns. Your responsibilities will include meeting your own fundraising goals and managing a team of paid staff. You may be assigned to a different office location for the summer and should be flexible to move.

Qualifications

Entry-level candidates are encouraged to apply. Though we expect you to take your campaign and run with it, we provide training on advocacy and organizing skills, as well as oversight by an experienced advocate. Ideal candidates will have:

Passion for the environment and using the power of grassroots organizing to win campaigns
Leadership experience
Top-notch writing and public speaking skills
Good listening skills
An eagerness to learn
Organizing experience, including building campus or community groups

Compensation and Benefits

The target annual compensation for this entry level position is $38,250-$39,500. Environment Illinois offers an excellent benefits package. Our benefits package includes medical, dental, and vision insurance for employees and dependents, time off, a commuter benefit program, a 401(k) plan with employer match, parental leave, long term disability insurance, and may include needs-based student loan assistance. We also offer an excellent training program and opportunities for advancement.

About Environment America

Environment America has one mission: to protect the natural world.

We advocate ideas and actions to guide our country onto a greener, healthier path. Our network of 30 state environmental groups promotes clean air, clean water, clean energy, wildlife and open spaces, and a livable climate. Our members put grassroots support behind our research, public education, advocacy and litigation.

Nothing is more important to our future than facing this fact: Infinite economic growth on a finite planet is neither wise nor possible. We must shift from deplete to preserve, from disposable to sustainable, from “never enough” to “enough.” Together, our staff, members and other supporters are committed to winning changes that allow nature to thrive and our children to live healthier, more enriching lives.
