Freelance Campaign Planning and Coaching Facilitator

LINGO is seeking 1–2 freelance campaign-planning and coaching facilitators to support grassroots climate and environmental justice groups, primarily in the Global South, through remote strategy workshops and follow-on coaching.

This is a fully remote contractor role, with the possibility of transitioning to a more long-term role. Facilitators will work directly with LINGO’s Empower programme to prepare and lead online campaign-planning workshops, join scoping and prep calls in advance, and provide ongoing coaching support to participants after workshops. The aim is to help groups develop practical, usable campaign plans that they can carry forward.

We’re looking for people with:

• Strong experience in campaign strategy and planning and (ideally) successful execution
• Experience facilitating campaign-planning workshops or movement trainings
• Comfort working online, across time zones, and in varied political and cultural contexts
• A facilitation style that supports participant leadership and ownership, rather than prescribing strategy

Preferred:

• Training or experience with Midwest Academy methods
• Experience with climate, environmental justice, or community campaigns
• Experience working with groups in the Global South
• Additional languages, especially Spanish

About LINGO

The Leave it in the Ground Initiative (LINGO) was established in 2011 with the goal of contributing to ending the fossil fuel age as quickly as possible.

LINGO has identified and pushed forward high-impact game changers for the fossil endgame for a decade, working at the intersection of resistance to fossil fuel projects, research and incubating bold new framings and solutions to the climate emergency. We are members of the Global Gas and Oil Network, Rapid Transition Alliance, Beyond Gas Network, Ende Gelände Coalition, Mexican Alliance Against Fracking and others.

LINGO’s strategy is to reframe the thorniest issues to make them actionable and provide strategic information to the movement to act on critical issues.

Fluency in English is required, fluency in Spanish is ideal.
