---------
CREDO Action organizes for progressive change. We mobilize our millions of activists to speak out and pressure decision makers from the local to the national levels. From relentlessly defending reproductive freedom, civil rights, LGBTQ equality and our environment to fixing our broken democracy and fighting for an economy that works for everyone, CREDO empowers activists to work for the change we want to see, not what we are told we can achieve by the mainstream political establishment.
We are the advocacy arm of CREDO, a for-profit social change organization that offers products – like CREDO Mobile and CREDO Energy – to fund our activism and support dozens of progressive organizations each year, including Planned Parenthood, Color Of Change, Electronic Frontier Foundation, National Domestic Workers Alliance and 350.org.
In the Trump era, we are more committed than ever to protect the communities he is attacking, delegitimize his corrupt, bigoted regime, obstruct his dangerous agenda, and promote strong progressive alternatives to both the toxic Republican Party platform and Democratic Party compromise and cowardice.
We know that the hate at the core of Trump's agenda particularly threatens people of color, immigrants, Muslims, LGBTQ people, and women. We especially encourage people from those communities to apply for this job because we believe CREDO's platform provides a powerful tool to defend ourselves, our loved ones and our values. We also believe that a diverse team and inclusive team culture help us work in ways that prioritize intersectionality, push back on institutional oppression within the progressive movement and achieve the equitable movement and world we want.
This position is full time, exempt and reports to CREDO Action's social media manager Ari Chopelas. This position is remote, although candidates in the San Francisco Bay Area or Denver, Colorado area will have the option to work from a local CREDO office. Remote employees travel to CREDO's San Francisco headquarters several times per year.
YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR…
Helping grow CREDO's thriving social media channels by:
- monitoring breaking news, social media tools and campaigner suggestions to identify shareable content, memes and videos;
