JOB: Regional Communications Manager, Western Region (SIERRA CLUB: SAN FRANCISCO)

[Julie OMalley]

The Sierra Club, the nation's largest and most effective grassroots environmental organization, seeks a San Francisco-based communications manager for our ground-breaking, history-making Beyond Coal campaign. This key Regional Communications Manager position will directly manage a team of four press secretaries helping to guide media strategy across a portfolio of Western states. The Beyond Coal campaign aims to retire a third of the nation's coal-burning power plants and replace them with wind, solar, and other clean energy alternatives.

The ideal candidate has a proven record of resourcefulness, creativity, and a good understanding of grassroots organizing. A history of managing successful teams is essential given the fast-paced nature of our work. In addition to shaping messaging, strategy, and tactics, this individual will maintain key media relationships, pitch and promote stories for the campaign, create paid-media plans, and provide on-the-record comments for news outlets. Candidates should have 5+ years of media and communications experience, and a passion for environmental and social change. The job is based in San Francisco (Oakland, May 2016).
