Description
Job Title: Director of the Beyond Coal Campaign
Department: Program - Campaigns
Location: Remote
Reports to: Senior Director for Campaign Strategy
Supervises: Up to 6 campaign staff
Context: At the Sierra Club, we believe in the power of interdependence. Together, we remain committed to the fight for a healthy climate built on a foundation of environmental, racial, economic, and gender justice – a future where all people benefit from a healthy, thriving planet and a direct connection to nature. As the climate crisis and deeply entrenched systemic racism all fuel injustice, we will continue to fight for a bold, transformational agenda that recognizes the interconnectedness between our planet, our humanity, and our future. By recognizing that our destinies are tied, we continue to name that all things are fundamentally connected, and the overlap between ecology, race, gender, and representative government will move to either advance our collective humanity or to oppress it. Sierra Club has close to 800 staff across the country and a network of 64 local chapters that are led and fueled by thousands of volunteers. We are also proud to be a unionized employer, with three labor unions representing more than half of our employees.
Scope: The Director of the Beyond Coal Campaign leads the Sierra Club’s work to achieve an equitable transformation of the power sector away from coal and gas to 100 percent clean energy.
