About Food & Water Watch:

Food & Water Watch is working to create a healthy future for all people and generations to come—a world where everyone has food they can trust, clean drinking water, and a livable climate. Making this happen requires involving people in the pressing issues of our time at the local, state, and federal levels, building on one win after another, as we develop a larger movement that has the political power to make our democratic process work.

About the position:

The New Mexico Organizer will report to the Factory Farm Organizing Manager and will work with other national organizing staff, regional field staff, and policy/research staff to support FWW’s work to advance factory farm strategic organizing campaigns in New Mexico. The Organizer will have three main responsibilities: mobilize FWW members and supporters to pressure key elected officials to support our legislative priorities, build Food & Water Watch’s base in New Mexico through a chapter of our volunteer program in the state, and reach out to allies, key community leaders, and local elected officials to strengthen our campaigns.

This is a part-time, temporary, grant-funded position that will end on December 18, 2026. The salary range is $22 - $27/hour. The position is hourly up to 29 hours per week and does not include benefits.

-
Build capacity. Develop the leadership of volunteers and grassroots organizations by offering training and organizing support.
-
Represent Food & Water Watch. Speak at public events and in press interviews on behalf of the organization. Participate in coalitions and joint campaigns or tactics.
-
Write to inspire action. Develop educational materials such as factsheets, action alerts, website content, and newsletter articles on campaign issues.
-
Use digital tools. Become proficient in tools such as ThruText, Scale-to-win, and Mobilize.
-
Know our issues. Maintain familiarity with Food & Water Watch’s priority issue campaigns and policy positions, and respond to information and support requests from activists, coalition members, and the media.
-
Build Food & Water Watch for the long haul. Participate in member recruitment and fundraising activities for Food & Water Watch.
- Carry out other projects as assigned.
