PIRG Campus is Hiring!


I want to introduce you to PIRG Campus Action and our recruiter at University of Puget Sound this year.

PIRG Campus Action is the new name for the long-established team of organizers who work with students at PIRG campus chapters across the country.

Once again, we’re hiring new staff to join us in making a difference right now on some of our top environmental and social issues. Sam Hollister will be working on campus this year to find students who are interested in taking on this kind of challenge.

We’re looking for students who have the passion and drive to win positive social change.

PIRG Campus Action is hiring organizers to help us make a difference on some of the top issues facing our generation today.

PIRG Campus Action is hiring organizers to help us make a difference on some of the top issues facing our generation today.

  • We want clean energy, not climate change — so we’re pushing for 100% renewable power by calling on cities and towns to go solar.
  • We want democracy to work for everybody, not just Super PACs — so we’re working to overturn Citizens United and reclaim democracy for the people. 
  • We want politicians to pay attention to young people and the issues they care about — so we’re planning to get out the youth vote in the 2016 presidential election.

We’re organizing to make a difference right now — and we’re doing it on college campuses. And over the years, our organizers have helped students win major victories. For example, we helped pass a landmark global warming bill in Massachusetts, making it one of the first states in the nation with a comprehensive plan to address climate change.

If you join our team, you’ll learn from some of the best organizers in the country—people who have been doing this work for more than 30 years. You’ll learn how to recruit and train students to tackle problems head-on, how to run campaigns that get real results both now and years after they graduate, and will leave behind a group that can sustain this work in years to come.

If you have the passion and the drive it takes to fuel the power of student activism, win positive change, and build for even more victories in the future, consider working with us.  Apply today.
