Work on Climate (WoCl) is a leading non-profit focused on mobilizing humanity’s talent to build a regenerative, climate-positive economy. You probably know us for our online community — the world’s largest climate career and action community — which has helped thousands of people find climate jobs, start companies, and build impactful networks. We’ve been featured in Fast Company, the New York Times, Wired, and more. About the teamThe Organizer Support team makes chapter-based coordination scalable; this team will support the organizers by getting to know them, learning what their needs are, and figuring out the best ways to meet them. This team is integral to helping organisers learn from each other’s challenges and successes, identifying patterns across chapters that build and sustain collective power, and ensuring that organising knowledge compounds and transfers across sectors to other chapters. Our team meets weekly on Wednesdays at 10:00 am PT / 1:00 pm ET / 6:00 pm BST. Role summaryYou’ll provide direct support to chapter organizers in the community through regular check-ins, resource development, and pattern identification. This role directly impacts the success and scalability of chapters by creating conditions where community leaders feel connected and supported. In collaboration with the team and organizers on the ground, we’ll develop toolkits and other resources that will become scalable frameworks to support the climate work movement. We’re building an organizer support infrastructure to help chapter leads and program coordinators succeed in their volunteer roles. This position is open as we scale from supporting individual organizers to coordinating multi-chapter best practices. During your term, we need you to create support resources, conduct 1:1 check-ins with organizers, and identify patterns that inform systemic improvements to volunteer infrastructure. Time commitmentMost successful volunteers dedicate 5 hours/week consistently and consider this a long-term volunteer position; ~1 hour of that time in weekly team meetings to build team connections and keep work on-track. Why volunteer with Work on Climate?Learn organizational development practices in a real-world context; work with community organizers on the ground to solve immediate problems; build a strong climate network across multiple regions and sectors; collaborate with top-notch teammates passionate about climate. What will I do?Build and sustain relationships with chapter leaders; identify and document patterns across organizers; bring organizers’ needs and context back to the Organizer Support team; foster engagement, trust, and mutual support in the organizer community; develop tools and systems and deconstruct them into replicable templates; document and manage organizer relationships and resources; create comprehensive documentation, training, and toolkits; contribute to shared documentation and infrastructure design. What skills and commitment do I need?Experience facilitating 1:1 conversations or coaching; strong documentation skills; systems thinking; comfortable with asynchronous communication tools (Slack, Loom); project management experience or ability to track multiple organizers’ needs; emotional intelligence and active listening; experience with community organizing is a plus but not required. Common ChallengesOrganizers often surface needs during high-stress periods, requiring triage; identify when chapters are strong enough for us to step back versus when to provide hands-on support; co-creating across regions and sectors means systems may need rapid iteration based on live feedback.
