Color of Change seeks Special Projects & Partnerships Coordinator - $62k

Help-wanted.jpg

Color Of Change is the nation’s largest online racial justice organization. We help people respond effectively to injustice in the world around us. As a national online force driven by over 1.7 million members, we move decision-makers in corporations and government to create a more humane and less hostile world for Black people in America. We move members from analysis to action on crucial issues so that we can build the Black political power necessary to transform the written and unwritten rules of society. Color Of Change was founded in 2005 in response to the realization that during the crisis caused by Hurricane Katrina, as Black people were left stranded on their roofs to die, no one was afraid to disappoint Black people. When the government, media, corporations, and other decision-makers are not afraid to disappoint Black people, Black communities are negatively impacted and cannot move forward.

TEAM SUMMARY

The Marketing & Storytelling team leads the brand, content, culture change, communications, and influencer engagement necessary to advance Color Of Change’s values, vision, and efforts across society. Through various platforms and mediums, the team helps Color Of Change, our members and allies become more powerful and deliver on our main promise: elevating the stories and solutions we believe in, increasing the demand for change, sparking the level and frequency of action that can force the hand of decision-makers, and shifting societal norms—all in service of achieving real, lasting and systemic change. Central to the Marketing & Storytelling team’s work is Color Of Change Hollywood, an initiative designed to change the rules that shape how Black people (and the issues that affect our communities) are represented in entertainment and media, to create racial equity in the entertainment industry, and to effectively leverage cultural influencers in support Color Of Change’s organizing campaigns.

ROLE SUMMARY

Color Of Change seeks a dynamic Special Projects & Partnerships Coordinator to (i) provide overall administrative support to the Marketing & Storytelling team, and (ii) assist with and contribute to special projects for the team. The ideal candidate has 1-3 years of administrative and/or operations experience and is committed to working in a fast-paced and entrepreneurial environment.

As a Special Projects & Partnerships Coordinator, you will gain a unique understanding of the inner workings and movements of influencer marketing, partnerships, sponsorships, programs, public relations, and activations for a high-performing team of creators in a rapidly growing racial justice organization. This position reports to the Deputy Chief of Marketing and Storytelling and supports the Special Projects and Partnerships Manager.
