at Rad Campaign

🏢 About Rad Campaign

Rad Campaign is a digital agency that exclusively partners with nonprofits and campaigns fighting for social justice, including LGBTQ+ rights, women's rights, and climate action. They also incubate Women Who Tech, which funds underrepresented women-led startups, making them a mission-driven organization where your work directly supports progressive causes.

About This Role

As a Digital Project Coordinator, you'll be the central hub for client projects, managing timelines, coordinating developers and designers, and ensuring successful delivery of website redesigns and digital campaigns. This role is impactful because you'll help amplify the voices of organizations working on critical issues like reproductive rights and racial justice.

💡 A Day in the Life

Your day might start with a stand-up meeting with developers to review progress on a website redesign, followed by a client check-in to update them on milestones. You'll then spend time creating project timelines in Asana, reviewing SEO reports for a campaign, and coordinating with a designer on accessibility fixes before wrapping up with a Slack message to the team.

  • Is technically savvy with WordPress, Drupal, web accessibility (WCAG), and familiar with GitHub and CRMs like Salesforce or EveryAction.
  • Excels at communication and detail-oriented coordination, juggling multiple projects with cross-functional teams.
  • Passionate about social justice issues—LGBTQ+ equality, climate justice, women's rights—and wants their work to make a difference.
