38 Degrees is one of the UK’s biggest campaigning communities, with millions of members. We’re united by a set of shared values; to defend fairness, protect rights, promote peace, preserve the planet and deepen democracy. We come together to decide which issues we campaign on, and the actions we take. 38 Degrees puts power into people’s hands. We’re helping to strengthen democracy by giving 38 Degrees members a new way to be involved in politics. We want to be more than just voters and ensure our voices are heard all of the time, not just once every five years. We are a community of people who want positive change. 38 Degrees members have contributed to some incredible, people-powered victories since we started working together to make change happen. We helped stop the government’s cuts to tax credits and most recently we helped make the government u-turn on forcing schools to become academies. The 38 Degrees office team pride ourselves on nimble, focused campaigns that we’re more likely to put together in two hours than two weeks. That means our team is decisive, ambitious and happy to take risks. We’re characterised by our energy and enthusiasm; we’d rather aim high and see what happens, than play it safe. We’re passionate about putting 38 Degrees members first – we believe democracy works better when more people get involved. About the role We are seeking experienced organisers to join our team on a permanent basis to fill a variety of roles. As an Organiser, you will support and help 38 Degrees members to build a sense of a 38 Degrees community and help members campaign on a range of issues – channelling the time and money of our members in the most effective ways possible. Most of our team are currently generalists but we warmly welcome specialists who want to get involved in a bit of everything!
Your skills and experience The role we are advertising require organisers with at least 2 years experience. This experience doesn’t necessarily need to come from paid work, it can be from work that you have done on a voluntary basis or in your own community. Your core skills and experience could include:
The job is often driven by a campaign cycle, so there are times that involve long ours and times that dont. Our culture recognises both the needs of campaigns and the need for rest and for our staff to have a life. |
