Job Description

350.org is looking for a Deputy Director, Global Partnerships and Network who will lead 350.org's global network strategy and manage a distributed team responsible for building powerful, politically effective networks of local groups, volunteers, and partners across regions.

350's mission is to keep carbon in our atmosphere to a safe level, below 350 parts per million. We do this by mobilizing ordinary people to campaign for universal access to clean energy and an end to fossil fuels. Our campaigns are rooted in local organizing, so that while achieving measurable reductions in fossil fuel emissions, we also build the power and potential of the climate movement for yet more impact to come. The values that guide and drive our work are listed here.

350.org is an equal opportunity employer. 350.org strives to be an inclusive and collaborative group of people who bring a variety of approaches to the work we do. We're committed to the principles of justice, and we try to build a safe workplace where everyone is treated fairly and enjoys working together. We value new perspectives, ideas of all sorts, and different ways of working. Diverse perspectives and experiences improve the way 350.org carries out our work - including what we decide to work on and how creatively/effectively we do that. We do our best to make staff positions accessible to all potential team members, regardless of race, national origin, ethnicity, age, disability, assigned gender, gender expression or identity, sexual orientation or identity, religion or creed, veteran status, marital or parental status, and genetic information. We also strive to include team members in communities most impacted by climate change or impacted by other kinds of environmental, social, and economic injustice.

About the Deputy Director, Global Partnerships and Network role

The Deputy Director, Partnerships and Networks leads 350.org's global network strategy and manages a distributed team responsible for building powerful, politically effective networks of local groups, volunteers, and partners across regions. The role is accountable for setting direction, driving delivery, and ensuring that partnerships and network-building work contributes directly to campaign outcomes, organisational priorities, and movement power.

This position ensures that strong systems, structures, and leadership are in place across regional networks so that teams can operate with clarity, cohesion, and accountability while adapting to local contexts. The Deputy Director, Partnerships and Networks is also a senior contributor to 350.org's broader campaigning strategy, bringing movement and network insight into organisational decision-making and ensuring that networks strengthen the organisation's work to phase out fossil fuels and accelerate a just energy transition.

The role has three core priorities: first, to lead and manage Regional Network Coordinators with clear expectations, strong coaching and rigorous accountability; second, to build the systems, processes and cross-regional ways of working required for healthy, resilient and strategically focused networks; and third, to act as the bridge between regional network organising and global strategy, ensuring that networks both shape and deliver 350.org's campaigns, partnerships and fundraising priorities.
