Job description

The Redress Movement is a national non-profit organization, formed in 2022, that partners with local communities to repair the harm caused by intentional policies that segregate communities. The Redress Movement’s work centers around educating, mobilizing, shifting the narrative, and winning redress victories. The Redress Movement’s starting point is housing justice, but we work in solidarity with others who are facing the facts of history, redressing harms of the past, and healing our communities by dismantling the barriers that divide us.

About the Role

Our power as an organization is rooted in our ability to build strong partner communities in US cities that develop leaders, win on issues, and influence policy and legislation. The Campaign Organizer will help us build this capacity in Denver, Colorado. By providing coaching, training, project management and leadership to local neighbor leaders, the Campaign Organizer will help us strengthen and expand our team of staff and member organizers.

The Campaign Organizer will help to build a rich and healthy culture for our young organization. In 2026, Redress is committed to developing a culture where we continue to emphasize our local strengths through community wins in reparative housing justice, expand our base and unique identity, and skill up our people for self-sustaining leadership. We seek to do this while establishing stronger cross-team operations to build toward scalability. The Campaign Organizer will be able to demonstrate their commitment to helping build this culture on our national staff and in their local partner community.

Our ideal candidate will possess project management, organizing, and campaign experience that will lend itself to leading local strategies to redress residential segregation. The right person for this position will have some familiarity with the ways in which discriminatory housing policies and practices have segregated communities across the country, a demonstrated interest in civil rights or housing justice issues, and deep connections to people and organizations across the Denver Metro Area.

Additionally, the role requires substantial experience in campaign management, strategic planning, data entry, coalition building, and mobilizing large numbers of people. Please note that our focus will be on demonstrated experience and success, not just number of years.

The Campaign Organizer will report to the National Organizing Coordinator & Senior Colorado Organizer.
