You will play an important role working with partner organisations in the climate and environment movement.

THE TEAM

As a climate campaigner at Greenpeace, you will work with our Climate and Energy team on campaigns to phase out fossil fuels and to increase both Australia’s emissions reduction ambition and commitments to climate justice.

With a track record in both online and offline campaigns, you understand the intricate dance of digital engagement and physical mobilisation - from building online communities to mastering social media, you're well-versed in the nuances of branding, design, and user experience.
