Essential Functions 
  • Agenda development and outreach support for Natural and Working Lands learning labs.
  • Working with team members to prepare materials that support major Alliance meetings and workshops.
  • Support the Alliance in Inflation Reduction Act implementation by researching trends and challenges in state implementation and communicating it to partners.
  • Support in tracking federal climate policy, funding, and comment opportunities and drafting weekly and quarterly newsletters to states.
  • Additional support tasks as needed. 
Selection Criteria 
  • Applicants can be enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate program. We also welcome applications from individuals who have graduated within the last 8 months.
  • Strong research skills, ability to write and communicate clearly and concisely. 
  • Demonstrated interest and experience in state climate policy and coalition building. 
  • Experience, familiarity, or interest in federal climate policy.

  • Be responsible, flexible, collaborative, hard‐working and committed to the mission of the U.S. Climate Alliance. 
  • Fluent in English.
  • Must be available to work a maximum of 29 hours per week within the working day of 9am-5pm EST.
  • Ability to meet regular attendance/tardiness policy. 

Our Values 

The Secretariat’s core values represent our team’s highest priorities and driving forces. These values are the heart of how we go about doing our work in support of each other and our member governors and states, serving as cultural cornerstones and exemplified by all members of our team. 
  • Purpose: We are aligned by a common purpose to confront the climate crisis and its impacts through the power of state government. We connect our daily work to the Alliance’s mission and, in pursuit of our shared goals, always act in the best interest of our governors and states. 
  • Excellence: We have high standards in the work we do to support Alliance governors and states. We are focused, data-driven, and attentive to the smallest of details while never losing sight of the big picture.  
  • Empathy: We value kindness and treat others with dignity and respect, recognizing that our actions affect one another and all those with whom we interact. We consider growth, learning, and development to be priorities.  
  • Inclusion: We actively work to increase diversity, advance equity, and cultivate a welcoming work environment where everyone feels valued. We are collaborators and prioritize teamwork — knowing that it will take our broader community all working together to ultimately solve the climate crisis.  
  • Balance: We value a positive work environment and, even in the hectic day-to-day, we make the time to build relationships, celebrate successes, and laugh. We know that balancing home and work lives is essential and encourage each other to put the health and well-being of ourselves and our loved ones first.
