MoveOn.org is a community of millions of members working together to create progressive change in America. We take on campaigns to challenge entrenched power and push back against right-wing policies, while pursuing economic, racial, and social justice.
For 18 years, MoveOn has used online tools to lower the barriers to participation in our democracy, so real Americans have a voice in a political process where big money and corporate lobbyists wield too much influence. MoveOn has been at the forefront of a revolution in online organizing that has reshaped the landscape from a small number of staff campaigners launching digital campaigns to a huge number of everyday people waging and winning people-powered campaigns and joining together for national action.
In these vibrant and dynamic times, MoveOn is seeking an outstanding Director of Finance and Administration to help lead the organization as it continues to grow.

The right person for this role will be a creative leader and management professional with a demonstrated entrepreneurial spirit along with a commitment to progressive values.
