Keep your full-time job or other work commitments but freelance with SMT to share your expertise to strengthen people power movements across the African continent a few hours a week or month. This is an opportunity to share your experience with campaigners across the African continent and work with groups 1:1 to help them ramp up.

Social Movement Technologies’ mission is to provide strategy, training and campaign support to build people-power for justice and win in the digital age. We're an NGO movement support group, driven 100% to meet movement needs. We're super lean - we do lots with little, just like most of the groups we work with.

SMT’s small but highly effective team has trained staff from over 3500 groups and unions over its first seven years, and worked with 100+ groups on campaigns more in-depth.

SMT provides the in-depth campaign training that staff and activists need in the digital age. Our goal is to expand access by driving down the cost of this training and providing excellent online learning experiences to dramatically deepen organizing proficiency. Our focus is on using digital campaigning to amplify in-person action, broaden support, activate supporters, and pressure targets. Our bias is towards meeting the needs of small to medium-size groups.

How to apply: Please let us know where you heard about the job. Tell us about your relevant experience. Share your resume, samples of your online campaign work, and a list of the online tools and platforms in which you have proficiency. This app only allows one doc upload, so please include your list of tools at the end of your cover letter. If you have other work you'd like to share, include a link to a folder of your campaign work or other documents at the bottom of your cover letter. A later step in the process will include a timed live exercise. References will be required.

***You should have a list of digital tools and tactics with which you work, and campaign collateral and narrative. Please don't take the time to apply if you are not at this level. Thank you!***

We regret that we will not be able to acknowledge all applications in a personal way, nor do we have the capacity to have pre-application conversations. We greatly appreciate that time and care is invested in each of them. Position will be open until filled.
