About the role:

Green New Deal Rising is looking for a creative and strategic Organiser to build and grow our volunteer movement, activating and training people to deliver bold, people-powered campaigns that shift the political agenda.

Green New Deal Rising is building a movement of young people from every part of the UK to fight for a response to the climate crisis that transforms our economy to deliver a safe climate and a fairer society. We believe in people power, and through a combination of disrupting the political system and organising in our communities, we are working to make the Green New Deal an era-defining political demand.

As part of our multi-year strategy, we have ambitious plans to mobilise young people, disrupt politics, and force this government, and those that follow, to deliver transformative change. Organising will be central to this: activating and training volunteers, growing our local and national teams, and converting people power into political concessions.

You will design and deliver impactful volunteer pathways and training, both digitally and on the ground, and support our movement to do the same. You will be a creative thinker with strong people and coaching skills, good political judgement, and a desire to build a movement capable of winning real change.

We’re a small, agile team, and we all pitch in where needed across our campaigns and organising work. You’ll own real responsibility early on, contribute to shaping our direction, and watch your work make an immediate impact.

How to Apply:

We do things a little differently here. Before you apply, you’ll need to join one of our short webinars, where we’ll tell you more about Green New Deal Rising, what the role actually involves day-to-day, and what it’s like to be part of the team. It’s your chance to ask us anything and get a real feel for the role before you put an application together. Please note: that we will share the link to the full application form on the call.

Your name and camera will be hidden from other participants on the call, so you can join, listen and ask questions freely.

Key dates:

Webinars:

  • Shortlisting: w/c 27th July
  • First interviews (online): w/c 3rd August
    • We may ask you to prepare a short task for your interview
  • Second interviews (online): TBC

If none of the webinar times work for you, or you need any adjustments to take part – whether that’s a different format, individual call, or anything else – just email us at recruitment@gndrising.org. We want everyone who’s excited about this role to be able to apply.

We are committed to providing equal opportunities for everyone regardless of their background. We acknowledge that people from certain backgrounds are under-represented in progressive movements and we’re committed to doing what we can to correct this. We are particularly keen to receive applications from Black, Asian and minority ethnic people; people with disabilities; people who identify as being LGTBQIA; people who have a mental health condition; and people who identify as working-class or have done so in the past.
