About UltraViolet
UltraViolet is a powerful and rapidly growing community of people from all walks of life mobilized to fight sexism and expand women's rights, from politics and government to media and pop culture. UltraViolet works on a range of issues including health care, economic security, violence, reproductive rights, racial justice, and immigration by putting the voices of all women, especially women of color and LGBTQ women, front and center.
With more than 650,000 members across every state and congressional district, we make our voices heard to further the cause of full equality, empower women, and fight attacks on women's rights. Since our launch in early 2012, millions have spoken out in favor of fair pay, equal representation, and health care, and protested against the far-right's attempts to control women's health and lives. We've successfully campaigned to get Facebook to add the first woman to its corporate board, got more than a hundred advertisers to drop The Rush Limbaugh Show, pushed Reebok to withdraw its sponsorship of rapper Rick Ross due to his sexually violent lyrics, and successfully pressured authorities in Steubenville, Ohio to indict four school administrators for covering up the now-infamous rape of a teenage girl.
Equality at a higher frequency is what we're all about.
About the Campaign Director position
The UltraViolet Campaign Director is at the center of our fights for equality and against sexism. As Campaign Director, you would identify and run campaigns from start to finish, everything from drafting the email, to analyzing metrics, to running an on-the-ground protest or event.
You also have the chance to help build our organization. Just over three years old, UltraViolet members have already had a serious impact — but there is so much more to do. This position is a real chance to help build for the future.
The UltraViolet Campaign Director is a senior campaign position — we're looking for someone who has a proven ability to run high profile, rapid response campaigns that engage hundreds of thousands of people and garner national media attention. If you an instinct for breakout campaigns, an eye for media-worthiness, and a sharp sense of strategy, you should apply for this position.
The ideal candidate is an exceptional writer who is creative, entrepreneurial, detail-oriented, and flexible. They should be comfortable juggling multiple tasks and thrive in a fast-paced environment. Most of all, they should have the knack for campaigning: the ability to spot a moment, the willingness to go after any target, and the determination to keep pushing, even in the face of long odds. We're looking for someone who can spot an opportunity at 9 am, test the campaign by mid-morning, and launch that same day. A sense of humor and ability to work with our small (and mighty) team is a must.
The Campaign Director will report to the Organizing Director. UltraViolet operates a virtual office and has staff throughout the country. The location for this position is flexible. However, UltraViolet operates rapid response campaigns on East Coast time — which means PT and MT applicants should expect to begin work by 10 AM ET/ 7 AM PT at the latest most days of the week, and be ready and willing to begin work at 9 AM ET/6 AM PT if needed.
