    Department: State

    Employment Type: Full Time

    Location: Atlanta, GA

    Compensation: $32,500 - $42,000 / year

    Description

    Environment Georgia is seeking a Clean Energy Advocateto play a key role in Environment Georgia's work to stop air and water pollution and transition our state to 100% clean and renewable energy and transportation.

    Georgia has made progress in recent years: three of Georgia's largest cities have committed to 100% clean energy transitions and Georgia ranks 7th in the country for installed solar capacity. But, it's still harder than it should be to install rooftop solar, switch to an electric car, or make your home more energy efficient.

    Job Description and Key Responsibilities

    As our Clean Energy Advocate, you'll work with Environment Georgia's state director and our national clean energy program team at Environment America to advance policies and build public support for a clean energy future. This position requires exercising discretion and independent judgment in making decisions in matters of significance. Responsibilities may include, but are not limited to:
    • Program development and strategy: Help develop programs and campaigns around relevant policies, including researching the issue, creating viable policy solutions, and proposing a winning political strategy.
    • Advocacy and coalition-building: Represent Environment Georgia in meetings, hearings and other forums. Meet directly with decision makers in government, corporations and academia and make our case. Develop strong and collaborative relationships with state agencies, partner organizations, coalitions, legislators and legislative staff, and other stakeholders to advance shared goals, including partnering with unlikely allies who might agree with us on one issue, even if we disagree on other issues.
    • Communications: Write reports, fact sheets, news releases, blogs, op-eds, and other forms of communication to get our message in the media and heard by decision-makers and the public. Serve as the public spokesperson for our campaigns through media events, press releases, editorial board meetings and other outreach with a goal of building name recognition for the organization, educating the public about our issues, and building and demonstrating support for our positions.
    • Fundraising: Raise money from charitable foundations and individual donors to support our work.
    • Build the team: Recruit and train new interns and volunteers to increase our impact. Participate in recruitment of new staff.
    Qualifications

    You are:
    • Passionate about the environment, solving the climate crisis and using the power of grassroots organizing to win campaigns.
    • A campaign advocate or grassroots organizer with at least 2 years of advocacy or grassroots organizing experience. Advanced degrees may count toward experience
    • An effective communicator with excellent writing and public speaking skills. Experience getting traditional and digital media coverage in previous work is a plus.
    • Creative and effective at solving complex problems, a strategic thinker who can take advantage of new opportunities,
    • A people person and good listener with a track record of successful access-building.
    • Well-organized and able to work on multiple legislative and administrative proposals.
    Additional helpful experience:
    • Experience in the state legislature or other government office, or with an environmental or public health advocacy organization is a plus but not required.
    • Fundraising experience, particularly in grant-seeking from charitable foundations.
