Role Description

The Oceans and Vessels team is seeking a Ports and Community Engagement Campaigner to support Environmental Justice efforts in port-side communities.

  • This is a remote position. Candidates must have the ability to travel periodically to locations across the East Coast, Gulf Coast, or Mid-Atlantic regions for meetings, collaboration, and organizational events. Proximity to these regions is strongly preferred.
  • Proficiency with virtual meeting platforms (e.g., Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Google Meet) and standard productivity tools (e.g., Microsoft Office or Google Workspace).
  • Ability to work both independently and collaboratively, manage multiple priorities, and demonstrate initiative.
  • Authorized to work in the United States; visa sponsorship is not available.

Requirements

  • Support outreach, scheduling, and follow-up with community-based partners, local port advisory councils, government entities, and nonprofit collaborators.
  • Assist with planning and coordination of virtual and in-person engagements, including confirming logistics and preparing materials.
  • Take detailed meeting notes and support relationship-building with student groups, local school boards, family service organizations, and Environmental Justice partners.
  • Maintain and regularly update Ports Environmental Justice engagement databases and file systems such as Microsoft Excel, Word, and Google documents.
  • Gather and track data from port tours, community engagements, and FoE hosted events.
  • Support production and content creation for film, podcast, conference, and workshop engagements featuring program staff and partners.
  • Assist with the facilitation or presentation of port-related health impacts on portside communities, emerging port technologies (including electrification and alternative fuels), and workforce development opportunities.
  • Support the Ports Campaign Manager in providing technical assistance to community-based partners, including training related to port electrification, pollution impacts, climate action planning, and grant development.
  • Assist the Ports Campaign manager in coordinating local and regional support for state and federal policy initiatives, including the Clean Shipping and port-related regulatory campaigns.
  • Assist with the outreach and engagement with legislators, partners, and policymakers as needed. This may include limited lobbying activities or engagement classified as political or C4 action.
