Apply now

The Future Climate Collective (FCC) is seeking a strategic, high-energy Head of Outreach to lead our Communications, Marketing, and Brand Strategy. We are a Portland-based non-profit turning climate anxiety into climate agency through "living laboratories" in local schools.

About the Role:

As a volunteer leader, you will be the architect of our public voice. You’ll oversee a team of creatives and tech managers to ensure our "open-source" climate model reaches educators and partners globally.

  • Brand Strategy: Elevate the FCC brand across our website, social media, and regional events like PNW Climate Week.
  • Storytelling: Translate our "Impact Proof" (CO2e avoided and student success stories) into compelling content for grants and donors.
  • Community Mobilization: Drive the "Impact Funnel": converting public interest into active volunteerism and student participation.
  • Strategic Partnerships: Work with the Director of Development to align student projects with local Climate Action Plans and civic policy.

Who you are:

  • A storyteller who can turn complex climate data into empowering, jargon-free narratives.
  • A leader comfortable navigating a modern tech stack (Slack, Google Workspace).
  • Passionate about DEI and ensuring climate literacy is accessible to high-need schools.
  • Ready to help build Portland as a global blueprint for student-led climate action.

This is a high-visibility leadership role. You will work alongside industry experts (engineers, policy makers, and scientists) to move the needle from "climate doom" to measurable local action.
