Hi everyone,
We’re excited to announce that 350PDX is hiring! We recently received some surprise funding for a specific position to support the national People Vs Fossil Fuels campaign, so we’re currently hiring a National Fossil Fuels Organizer. This will be a temporary (1 year) part time (20 hours/week) organizing position in our Staff Collective.

People Vs. Fossil Fuels is an impressive coalition of over 1,200 groups across the country who are pressuring the Biden administration to declare a climate emergency and stop the federal approval of all new fossil fuel projects.
Now more than ever, we need simultaneous bold action on the local and federal levels. We know the only way we can achieve this is by building a massive people-powered movement that can make change we need. With this new position, we’re excited to collaborate with groups across the country and bring back actions we can all take together here locally.
To apply, please send a resume and cover letter to jobs@350pdx.org by August 8, 2022. We will review applications after that date. September 12, 2022 is our ideal start date for this position, but we are flexible. If you know of others who would be a good fit for this position, please forward this to them!
We are looking forward to hearing from you and continuing to grow our movement together. With excitement,
350PDX Staff Collective
350PDX is committed to building justice and equity within our organization. We strive to build a workplace that values a diversity of approaches and perspectives, where everyone is treated fairly and enjoys working together. Research shows that Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC), women, trans, and nonbinary people, and other members of communities on the front lines of the climate crisis are less likely to apply for jobs for which they don’t meet 100% of the qualifications exactly as described in the job announcement. The best person for this job may be new to our movement or our sector, or may bring key experience and skills from a different background than what we’ve suggested in the job description. We enthusiastically welcome and encourage your application, even if you’re not sure you meet each one of the qualifications we’ve described.
