Seasonal Field Organizer
Utah Rivers Council is hiring a Seasonal Field Organizer to expand our statewide organizing program to help protect some of the West’s most important waters, including Utah’s Great Salt Lake. The lake is at a critical turning point in the face of climate change, excessive upstream water use, and unchecked water diversion projects. Protecting our water future requires building people power, strengthening community relationships, and mobilizing public action.
For 32 years, Utah Rivers Council has worked to protect and restore Utah’s rivers through bold advocacy, research, and public education. We are seeking a motivated, courageous individual who is ready to engage communities and grow our grassroots network to help us succeed in our campaign to hold Utah accountable for saving the Great Salt Lake. Utah Rivers Council represents the entire economic and political spectrum in our work to implement a sustainable water future in Utah and a candidate must exercise diplomacy and a willingness to organize and work with people from a range of backgrounds and beliefs.
This role is ideal for self-driven individuals who thrive in fast-paced, mission-driven work and are energized by activism. Strong interpersonal and communication skills and comfort engaging with diverse audiences are necessary traits for this role. Some experience with volunteer coordination, community organizing, or advocacy campaigns is also preferred but not required.
This is a part-time seasonal position based in Salt Lake City. This will be a field position requiring evening availability for door-to-door and crowd canvassing. Compensation is hourly and dependent upon experience.
The URC strives to maintain a fun, informal work environment where performance and progress are measured by real success. While we like to work hard, a healthy work-life balance and periodic paid time off is part of our success. We suggest you visit our website to learn more about our work before applying.
