Job Description
Clean Water Action focuses on campaigns related to water access, water quality, and environmental justice. Our recent victories include passing the strongest lead in drinking water standard in the country here in Michigan, passing federal drinking water standards for PFAs, and continuing to fund lead pipe replacement across the state.
Currently, we are working with the Michiganders for Money Out of Politics coalition to pass a Michigan state law that comprehensively prohibits monopoly utilities like DTE and Consumers Energy from making state or local political contributions. From issues like holding polluters accountable to taking the big, bold steps that we need to address the climate crisis, political money from major corporations has been a consistent roadblock to passing people-centered policy. We can no longer allow monopoly corporations and corporations seeking state contracts to buy their way out of accountability and drown out the voice of the people. And because we can't trust our lawmakers to do the right thing while they're being funded by corporations, we're putting this up for a vote by the people of Michigan on next year's ballot.
As part of our staff, you would organize communities around these vital issues. Responsibilities include one-on-one communication, education, fundraising, dispersing information, volunteer recruitment, and good record keeping. If you're ready to make a difference in the environmental sector while working in a dynamic and supportive environment, apply now and become a part of our motivated team!
We look for candidates who have strong oral and written communication skills, and who possess good attention to detail. Candidates are expected to possess cultural competence and a commitment to racial justice and equity. Candidates should have an interest in environmental or social justice issues, non-profit work, or politics. We encourage applicants from all major backgrounds to apply, but this position is an especially good fit for candidates with a background in Social Work, Sociology, Communications, Political Science, Public Health, or Environmental Studies. Candidates must enjoy working with a broad spectrum of people and be comfortable dealing directly with people every day. We do provide extensive training on the job responsibilities and on the issues we cover. Multilingual candidates are strongly encouraged to apply.
The hours for the work are from 2pm to 10:30pm, Monday through Friday, in either East Lansing or Ann Arbor. Pay for full time is $20/hour plus bonuses. We are currently interviewing for full time positions starting immediately or after graduation in Dec 2025. We provide a comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, vision and life insurance, and 401k; opportunities for travel within Michigan and throughout the US; and the potential for long term growth within the organization.
These are in person positions. Employees are expected to be masked in indoor spaces, and we clean and sanitize the office and our vehicles multiple times per day. We provide masks and sanitizer to all staff.
