new york city, United States UPROSE Full time

Founded in 1966, UPROSE is an intergenerational, BIWOC-led, internationally recognized community organization working at the intersection of racial justice and climate change through community-based planning and research, policy advocacy, popular education, organizing, artistic expression, and youth leadership development.


The Green Resilience Industrial District (GRID) is UPROSE’s transformational community-led Just Transition plan that seeks to operationalize a Just Transition in Sunset Park through the “green reindustrialization” of its waterfront. The GRID’s first goal is to “Strengthen the working-class character of Sunset Park through the preservation of maritime and industrial land uses and neighborhood jobs.” The first step to achieve this goal is New York City’s adoption of a GRID Special Purpose Zoning District. The GRID Special District Campaign Coordinator will coordinate campaign-related activities needed to achieve this objective.

This is a full-time position with a complete and fully employer-funded benefits package. UPROSE is looking for someone who can work in-person full-time Monday-Friday in our Sunset Park, Brooklyn office. Candidates must be able to work in a flexible schedule that may include evenings, weekends, and occasional travel.


To apply, send a resume and cover letter to specialprojects@uprose.org.


Responsibilities:

  • Coordinate a campaign for the adoption and implementation of the GRID Special Purpose District, a top objective of the GRID, the community’s transformational community Just Transition Plan.
  • Work with the Executive Director and Organizer to implement our strategy for the development of a GRID Special District proposal and campaign plan for adoption by New York City.
  • Coordinate communications and actions with UPROSE’s organizing staff and strategic partners
  • Coordinate communications with NYC Department of City Planning and other NYC agencies during the zoning process.
  • Support community education workshops and learning circles around the GRID Special District, climate justice, Just Transitions, and related topics.
  • Work with staff and partners to develop popular education tools for community engagement and education.
  • Support the Executive Director and other staff to develop other innovative GRID implementation strategies and action plans to achieve them.
  • Collaborate with UPROSE staff and strategic partners assigned to work on aspects of wider GRID implementation.
  • Represent the organization at meetings with partners and stakeholders and on coalition calls.
  • Provide the Executive Director and assigned staff timely information needed for grant and compliance reporting for the EPA Community Change grant, and any other related funding sources.
  • Contribute to grant-writing as needed.
  • Other tasks the Executive Director may assign.
  • Report directly to the Executive Director and Project Manager


Job requirements:

  • Demonstrated commitment to working for environmental, social, and climate justice.
  • Minimum of 5-7 years professional experience relevant to community organizing, community based planning, community engagement, and coalition building.
  • Ability to work independently and in a collaborative team-setting.
  • Outstanding personal organization, time management, attention to detail, and the ability to multitask.
  • Knowledge of basic computer applications, such as Microsoft, Google, and Adobe applications.
  • Excellent written/oral communications skills and comfortable giving public presentations.
  • Good sense of humor.


Preferred requirements:

  • Prior experience with NYC zoning and land use, including the ULURP process.
  • Experience working with diverse project partners in public, private, and non-profit sectors
  • Understanding of planning/economic development in New York City
