  • Washington DC

Job Description

OVERVIEW

The climate emergency is here . The world as we know it is running out of time and the window for small, incremental action has closed. Instead, we need an emergency-level response to avert climate catastrophe—and leaders with the courage and mandate to take bold action. Our critical window of opportunity to sound the alarm is ever-narrowing and the time to act is now. 

ACE’s mission is to educate, inspire and support young people to lead the fight for their future. We achieve our mission by reaching tens of millions of young people with our programs each year, training a new generation of leaders, amplifying youth voices to shift the narrative, and increasing diverse youth participation in our democracy.

Our staff and board members are dynamic, diverse and talented, and our team is currently growing to meet this critical moment of opportunity. 

 

JOB SUMMARY

With 8 million young people newly eligible to vote, Millennial and Gen Z voters are poised to make up 40 percent of the electorate in 2024 and have the potential to cast the deciding votes in 2024 elections up and down the ballot—determining the course of the next presidential election along with State House and Senate, Supreme Court, City Council, County Commission, Port Commission, and Public Utility Commission elections. The Policy and Communications team is new within ACE to gather political and policy insights to inform communications and advocacy opportunities. 

The Political Analyst will be an integral part of our new Policy and Communications team and play a strategic role in partnership with ACE’s 501(c)4 affiliate Climate Emergency Advocates in identifying races up and down the ballot where decisions are made to either advance clean energy or continue the fossil fuel status quo. The Political Analyst will be the resident expert in key races, candidates, election polling and research and will share this knowledge across the team and our network of youth to leverage tools and tactics to be able to have the greatest impact possible and open avenues toward power-building and policy wins. This role will also collaborate with the Research & Experimentation to identify gaps in message testing research that can inform our work and that of the broader field as well as provide political insights to inform fundraising proposals in collaboration with the Development Team. The Political Analyst will report to the Head of Policy and Communications and work collaboratively with the Associate Director of Communications, as well as the Development, Field, Research & Experimentation, Digital, Organizing and other teams.

Generous benefits include: Medical, Dental, Vision, 403b retirement savings plan, Vacation, Sabbatical, Paid Parental Leave, 2 Floating Holidays, 2 Community Service Floating Holidays, sick time, two weeks of full-staff time off (July 4 week and Christmas-New Years week) and 13 observed holidays

ACE is an equal-opportunity employer that highly values staff diversity
