Global Director of Human Resources

We fight for a world beyond fossil fuels.
‎350.org is building a global grassroots movement to solve the climate crisis.
Our online campaigns, grassroots organising, and mass public actions are led
from the bottom up by thousands of volunteer organisers in over ‎188 countries.
‎350.org works hard to organise in a new way - everywhere at once, using online
tools to facilitate strategic offline action. We want to be a laboratory for
the best ways to strengthen the climate movement and catalyse transformation
around the world. The values that guide and drive our work are listed here.
Over the past ‎15 years, we have mobilised with people around the world to
confront injustice and challenge our fossil-fuelled economic systems.
Together, we have achieved extraordinary things, from getting millions of
people onto the streets worldwide, to moving trillions of dollars away from
the fossil fuel industry, to stopping dirty coal, oil and fossil gas plants
and pipelines. We take on ambitious fights - and we often win!
