Position Announcements:
Last summer Chris, a senior at UC San Diego spent his summer working on cutting edge corporate accountability campaigns. For eight weeks Chris and a team of talented interns did everything from organizing press events and gathering Think Outside the Bottle pledges to recruiting volunteers and creating a buzz on social networks.
When Chris returned to campus he put his skills to work with the UCSD Social and Environmental Sustainability Committee. And his work is getting results. Several departments have stopped buying bottled water; Sun God, a 20,000 person festival, is going bottled water free this year; and the Chancellor just announced last week she is forming a working group to tackle the issue of bottled water.
As Chris now launches a career in social change, help jumpstart your own with a summer internship at Corporate Accountability International.
Join a winning team of people with the passion, commitment and determination to wage and win campaigns challenging the abuses of transnational corporations. Internships are available on our campaigns, recruitment, online and social marketing teams.
National Campaign Organizer Corporate Accountability International is an equal opportunity employer and an inclusive organization. People of color, women, and GLBTQ people are strongly encouraged to apply.
