The Pew Charitable Trusts is driven by the power of knowledge to solve today's most challenging problems. Pew applies a rigorous, analytical approach to improve public policy, inform the public and stimulate civic life.
The mission of the Pew Environment Group is to promote policies and practices that protect the global environment, preserve healthy forests and marine ecosystems. For the past two decades, the Environment group has been a major force in driving conservation policy in the United States, and increasingly internationally. The group’s work is focused on reducing the scope and severity of three major global environmental problems:
* Transition to a clean energy economy from one based primarily on the burning of fossil fuels;
* The erosion of large wilderness ecosystems that contain a great part of the world’s remaining biodiversity; and,
* The destruction of the world’s marine environment, with a particular emphasis on global fisheries.
The Clean Energy Program is working to accelerate the clean energy economy for its national security, economic and environmental benefits. The Program promotes the adoption of key changes to U.S. energy policy in four sectors: industry, utilities, transportation and research.
Specifically, Pew will build support for:
* Increasing fuel economy and encouraging the adoption of electric vehicles.
* Ensuring that the U.S. electric and industrial sectors are cleaner and more efficient.
* Fostering U.S. innovation through expanded energy research and development.
The Associate, Clean Energy Program will both help advance the overall policy goals and strategy of the program by supporting campaign, research, communications, field and government relations efforts and will work closely with the Director and Manager to support operations and campaign management. This position is non-exempt.
Responsibilities:
* Undertake special projects and research related to the portfolio’s goals as requested;
* Draft campaign materials such as advocacy alerts, fact sheets, Congressional correspondence, web content and more;
* Work with government relations, communications and grassroots outreach to produce and obtain input and track approval of external materials, as needed;
* Assist in the organizing and planning of events both in Washington, DC and in states;
* Work with the contracts coordinator and the Director to refine work plans and other related material for new and existing program consultants;
* Assist Director in organizing and tracking consultant budgets.
Requirements:
* A bachelor’s degree;
* A minimum of 1 year of relevant professional experience (Experience working in a large organization preferred);
* Exhibited professionalism and willingness to liaise with senior staff;
* A strong commitment to producing measurable results;
* Strong written and oral communications skills; and
