Corporate Accountability International seeks Campaigns Administrator and Organizer
For more than 30 years, Corporate
Accountability International has successfully challenged corporations
like GE, Nestlé, and Philip Morris to halt abusive practices that threaten
public health, the environment and our democracy. Today our campaigns
challenge the dangerous practices of some of the world’s most powerful
industries. Think Outside the Bottle exposes the
truth behind bottled water marketing and defends the human right to
water in the face of increasing corporate control. Value [the] Meal challenges the fast food industry
to stop driving an epidemic of diet-related disease, and our campaign Challenging Big Tobacco is blocking industry interference
in health policies that protect our kids.
