    Job Description

    Americans for Financial Reform Education Fund (AFREF) has been called "the leading voice for Wall Street accountability." AFREF played a leading role in winning passage of the Dodd Frank Financial Reform law and the creation of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and we are driving the fight for broader transformations of the financial system to advance economic, racial, and social justice. AFREF's staff develops plans and strategies in collaboration with a coalition of consumer, civil rights, labor, community based, and other organizations, along with academics and policy experts.

    Join us in the fight to hold Wall Street accountable, and make finance work for us, not against us. AFREF is seeking a Corporate Governance & Power Policy Coordinator to support our work changing the rules of the financial system to increase worker power in corporate decision-making and produce better results for workers, communities, and the planet. We advocate for changes to rules that impact pension funds, asset managers, public companies, and private markets.

    Job responsibilities include:

    • Contributing to AFREF's policy work at the intersection of financial regulation and corporate decision-making.
    • Leading or contributing to letters to the Hill, letters to regulatory agencies, policy memos, fact sheets, and other policy materials for a range of audiences.
    • Contributing to policy and logistical needs for meetings, briefings, and other events that AFREF develops to further policy and campaign goals.
    • Working with a campaigner on managing AFREF's social media related to corporate governance and power policy priorities and campaigns.
    • Drafting news releases and blogs.
    • Representing AFREF as a participant in calls and meetings with allies and policymakers.
    • Engaging in coalition work to advance shared goals.
    • Contributing to policy development and administrative and legislative advocacy strategy.
    • Providing other programmatic and administrative support as needed.

    Compensation: Annual salary range of $68,000 – $78,000 commensurate with experience. Generous benefits, including medical, dental, vision, and 401K.

    Location: AFREF's office is in downtown Washington DC. AFREF offers both a fully remote and a generously flexible hybrid/remote work schedule (for staff based in the DC metropolitan area)--depending on the nature of the position and organizational needs. The Corporate Governance & Power Policy Coordinator position is open to all applicants based in the United States.

    How to apply: Please submit your application to our candidate portal linked here, including a resume, cover letter, and two writing samples (ideally, related to AFR's mission or to the job responsibilities outlined above).

    AFR Education Fund is committed to a workplace that reflects diversity defined broadly, and where the talent, skills and uniqueness of each staff member are respected. We value a diverse workforce and are committed to a policy of equity for all employees and for all applicants. We strongly encourage People of Color; LGBTQIA+ people; women; people with disabilities; and veterans to apply.

    Meet some but not all our qualifications? Don't let that deter you from applying. If you believe that you could excel in our organization and believe in our mission, we hope you apply. We are dedicated to considering a broad array of candidates, including those with diverse workplace experiences and backgrounds. Please use your cover letter to tell us about your interest in our work and what you would bring to the role.
