Hi there,
Avaaz has enjoyed a meteoric rise over the last 4 years, rapidly
becoming the largest global web movement in history. Our membership is
at 8 million and climbing fast. The initial vision of Avaaz - of a
truly global, multilingual, multi-issue, committed movement of
citizens that can rapidly mobilize effective democratic pressure on
governments all over the planet -- has been realized.
But today our team is more taken with a sense of possibility than of
accomplishment. We feel we’ve just scratched the surface of what’s
possible with Avaaz, and we’re looking for a few absolutely
outstanding Japanese individuals to join us and help us find out just
how far our story goes.
Specifically and in the longer-term, we’re looking to hire a full time
Japanese Campaigner, or Campaign Director (depending on experience).
I’ve included details about what we’re looking for below, and would
kindly request you forward this to anyone you think might be
interested, or might be able to send it further.
If you know someone who can help us make calls, fix meetings... to
find the right people, please let us know, also. We may hire them as a
fixer to help us for a few weeks. We’re looking for a very practical
person with a deep knowledge of the Japanese political, media and
civil society worlds. We have a separate job description we can send
to people, please ask them to email:
recruiting@avaaz.orgWe don’t care so much about cover letters, or years of experience. Our
criteria for hiring for are:
-- Fluency in English and Japanese is a MUST
-- Excellent writer, able to write in an active voice, concisely and
with emotion,
-- A globalist -- familiar with a range of social and environmental
issues and the language used to write about them: human rights,
climate change, poverty, Middle East peace etc..
-- Comfortable working to extremely tight deadlines,
-- Flexibility -- able to surge at short notice,
-- Basic knowledge and proficiency in HTML code desirable but not essential,
-- Highly professional: attentive to detail, and no drama.
In our experience, we find great people by asking other great people.
Again, it doesn’t matter how many years of experience candidates have
or whether they’ve done very similar work. They might come from
politics, media, NGOs or it might be industry, education or science.
All of you are committed to social change, and we’d ask that you take
a few moments to consider this in that light - the right person at
Avaaz can really make a difference in the world. All of you have
either been extremely helpful to Avaaz staff or the organisation in
the past, and just a few moments of your time could literally make
years of difference to us and our work on the issues we all care
about.
If you have anyone to recommend or would like to apply yourself,
please forward them this email and the attached job description, and
encourage them to apply by emailing
recruiting@avaaz.orgbest wishes and thanks in advance for helping us out,
Ricken and the rest of the Avaaz team.
