About the role

CALPIRG is hiring a Zero Waste Campaign Associate to drive campaigns toward a circular economy by reducing waste, reusing materials, and advocating for policy changes. The role emphasizes outreach, coalition-building, and public engagement in Los Angeles and beyond. Entry-level candidates are encouraged to apply, with training and oversight provided. The position requires travel and flexibility for evenings and weekends as campaigns intensify, including the LA28 context.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
