WE ARE HIRING! We are looking for our new Equality Network & Advocacy Manager!

About EA’s work in the field

EA is coordinating a transnational feminist network, in the follow-up of FIERCE, that we want to further nurture, develop and accompany. EA is also actively involved in research on masculinism and fighting masculinism online, in the frame of the EMMELO project. Our aim is to contribute to building strong transnational interactions, actions, and capacities among trans-feminist actors and movements throughout Europe and beyond. This work entails stimulating and organising cooperation with anti-racists movements on common actions.

The Equality Network & Advocacy Manager shall be responsible for building interconnections between these two areas of work.

About the Position

The Equality Network & Advocacy Manager will be working under the supervision of EA’s directors in agile teams on each of the topics. 

How we’ll work together

European Alternatives is a highly flexible organisation, able to react quickly to new opportunities, open to developing its actions in directions that fit its team’s main areas of interest. Therefore there is lots of space for you to bloom. But EA’s transnational, fast-paced, highly geared nature is not always easy to navigate. Employees are expected to be both extremely collaborative and very autonomous. The teams you’ll be working with will depend on the project. The team leaders will be guiding and accompanying but you’ll also have large margins for creativity. You’ll probably have to make efforts to share and look for information. We are a small team so many of us are involved in several projects in different roles.
