Hi. This is Ted Fickes. Welcome to Future Community Jobs, a hand curated job list for nonprofit, news, and social good folks working in communications, content, fundraising, and tech. Jobs are updated daily and I only share jobs with salary information. Look for the clock ⏱️ to see roles with a deadline.
End Citizens United is looking for a full-time Deputy Legislative Director to be based in Washington, DC. This person will be working with partners in DC, state capitols, and coalitions to support anti-corruption reforms and fight big money in politics. Salary listed is $81,000 – $115,000.
I'm trying to keep Future Community and this human curated anti-slop community-centered jobs hub open to all.
And I have a goal of 26 30 New Paid Members this month!
Can it be done? I'm hopeful. Even optimistic. But it's more ambitious than it might sound. Right now there are 7 paid members. (🙏 thank you, btw, you are all wonderful!!!)
If you're able, and into it, you can support Future Community with a $4 monthly membership especially built for job seekers. That's just $1 a week.
Interested in a gift membership? Click reply and we'll handle it. Have questions? Click reply.
