This position is fully remote. You can be based anywhere in Africa. We may hire up to 6 people.

Keep your full-time job or other work commitments but join the Africa SMT team part-time to share your expertise to strengthen people power movements across French-speaking African countries.

 

You must:

  • be fluent in French and English (fluency in English is important to communicate with the rest of the Africa team)
  • have prior experience with digital campaigning for social change
  • be available during the workday (evenings/weekends are not an option)

 

Your job will be to do outreach to people-power groups, activists and movements. SMT will train you on the tools you'll be coaching people to use. For example,

 

  1. Digital security
  2. WhatsApp for building people-power
  3. Orchestrating Twitterstorms
  4. Mass texting and calling tools
  5. Tools for spinning up quick petitions and other online actions

 

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 3900 groups and unions over its first ten years, and worked with 100+ groups on campaigns more in-depth.

 

SMT provides the in-depth digital 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 digital 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. Hourly pay varies based on experience and cost of living where you are based. SMT has a transparent pay schedule for equity across the global team. 

 

 

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.

 

 

Social Movement Technologies is an equal opportunity and inclusive employer. SMT does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion (creed), gender, gender expression, age, national origin (ancestry), disability, marital status, sexual orientation, or military status, in any of its activities or operations. We believe that a diverse staff enables us to better understand and serve our members, audience and community. Women, people of color, and members of low-income, disadvantaged, and LGBTQ communities are strongly encouraged to apply.
