About the Organization
The People is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, focused on bringing Americans together to find common ground around nonpartisan policy reforms. We are looking for candidates who are able to work directly and respectfully with people from across the political spectrum without bias. Our organization embraces diversity and is proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer.
The People is a completely remote team, candidates must be driven self-starters and be able to work successfully with minimal virtual oversight. The remote nature of the organization also means the candidates may be asked to travel occasionally for meetings and events.
