Use your attention to detail and organization skills to make change. The Public Interest Network runs organizations committed to a cutting-edge vision of a better world, a set of core values, and a strategic approach to change. We work on a wide variety of important issues, from clean energy to product safety, that highlight the need for a reassessment of our economic values and a new approach to politics. Our campaigns challenge decision-makers and the rest of us to stop tolerating problems that are increasingly absurd in an age of advancing technology and growing abundance.

 

We’re seeking a top-notch administrator to help run the operations of The Public Interest Network’s state advocacy team. Working closely with our staff on the ground in 29 states, the administrator plays a critical role in the day to day logistics and support for effective organizations. Specifically, the administrator: 

 

Works with our team of state-based advocacy staff.
Manages team data and systems. 
Coordinates with other Public Interest Network departments. 

Identifies areas to innovate and improve efficiency. 

 

Qualifications

Qualified applicants need to be goal-driven and sharp, with great problem-solving skills, excellent judgment and discretion and the ability to oversee significant projects.  Applicants must be detail-oriented and highly organized, with a friendly and professional demeanor and the maturity to manage confidential and/or sensitive information. They should be driven by the idea of building a non-profit organization and have an outstanding work ethic while being flexible enough to pivot to prioritize whatever projects are most timely & important. Finally, a successful applicant is a problem solver who has the drive to succeed.

Relevant administrative experience, preferably in an activist, nonprofit or political organization. A plus but not a requirement.

The compensation range for this position is $30,000-38,000 and depends on relevant experience, education, and location. The Public Interest Network offers an excellent benefits package.
