Vice President of Communications - SF - Change.org - San Francisco, CA
Change.org is the world’s largest platform for social change, empowering more than 80 million users to take action on the issues they care about. More than 10,000 victories have been won through Change.org: strengthening hate crimes legislation in South Africa, successfully fighting corruption in Indonesia, Italy, and Brazil, helping end the ban on gay Boy Scouts in the US, and curbing acid attacks on women in India.
We’re an innovative business – a certified “B Corp” that combines the structure of a business with a social change mission – with investors that include Bill Gates, Richard Branson, and the founders of Twitter, Linkedin, Yahoo!, and eBay.
Sitting on our executive team, the Vice President of Communications will lead the strategy by which we build, spread, differentiate and protect the Change.org brand across more than 15 markets where we have communications staff.
We are looking for a world-class communications leader with demonstrated success:
Developing strategies, goals, and metrics for a global, high-impact communications program
Exploding a strong brand from early adopters to global ubiquity. Preference will be given to candidates who have built internet platform brands and/or brands which balance telling a brand story with empowering users to be brand ambassadors.
Leading media relations, media campaigning, or strategic communications programs that have attracted prominent and repeated national or international media attention.
Using top-tier media to build a beloved brand, ideally through media relations, media campaigns, and strategic communications or marketing strategies.
Resolving a wide variety of brand challenges and crises on a large scale.
Deep leadership and management experience, ideally including hiring, developing, and retaining world class talent on large, globally distributed teams.
Preference will be giving to candidates with experience building external affairs, marketing, social media, or media partnership programs.
Preference will also be given to those with experience/ability working effectively with product development teams.
You are:
The kind of person who sees solutions everywhere and is comfortable handling a high volume of work in a fast paced environment.
Equal parts inspiring leader and creative brand expert.
An articulate, compelling, and inspiring communicator.
A strategic, analytical, and focused thinker who enjoys using data in problem solving and innovation.
Collaborative, cooperative, and caring in your relationships with colleagues.
Deeply committed to social change and the ecosystem we are part of.
This ideal candidate will be based in San Francisco, but for the right candidate we would be open to New York, DC, or any major European city.
Our dream candidate might be running a successful comms team for a large tech or social change brand, working as a CMO, or leading a creative PR agency. Or this person might have done all three. But ultimately we care less about where you come from than about what you’ve achieved and where you can take Change.org’s brand.
We care deeply about supporting the remarkable people we hire, and we show it with competitive salaries, five weeks of vacation, 18 weeks leave for both parents (biological or adopted), free language training, an amazing culture, and a high impact, low-ego team.
All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, age, physical disability, or length of time spent unemployed.
We are working for a world where no one is powerless, and where creating change is a part of everyday life. We hope you’ll join us.
