Apply by Dec 20

About the job

Where will you work?

The Internet Freedom Foundation (IFF) is a three year young, impact focused non-profit organisation. It was born out of the largest online movement at its time — SaveTheInternet.in — that fought and won the battle for net neutrality. Today, with a staff size of 10, it is securing digital rights for all Indians. We are guided by the values of the Constitution of India

Why should you apply?

IFF is different. We are a team of high performers who combine the innovation of a modern startup with the clear, principle based values of social impact. Such inspired thinking is implemented in a highly collaborative environment of high performers. We practice accelerated learning, great levels of self-ownership and workplace empathy. You will through the course of your employment enjoy your work, improve your skills and hopefully set a solid foundation for leadership in community oriented communications, civic literacy, outreach, and digital rights advocacy. We promise you will get to build a healthy network by interacting with leaders from diverse fields who form part of the IFF community and are helping it grow.

Are you up to the challenge?

As a Civic Literacy and Communications Associate, you will have the opportunity to play a key strategic and creative role in leading IFF’s impact in the digital rights domain. Not only will you increase public literacy around privacy, free expression, surveillance, tech policy, and internet access in India, you will also channel literacy into mass advocacy. This will in turn maximize the impact of IFF’s institutional engagements. This requires two key elements.

• First, you have a creative bent of mind. Are you constantly thinking about new and innovative ways to effectively communicate ideas via multiple mediums, galvanize people to stand up for their rights, and introduce punchy, compelling narratives into your work? Do you write brilliant copy that makes people think, swipe, and share? If yes, we want to hear from you.

• Second, you are a highly organized people-person with great time management skills. You enjoy collaborating with colleagues and stakeholders, managing diverse projects with agility, keeping a finger on the pulse of social media trends, and building out a team of passionate digital rights advocates.

How to apply?

If you think you’re a good fit for this position and want to lead a young non profit organisation’s communications, civic literacy, outreach, and advocacy initiatives, please apply! We favour candidates who are available to start in this position as soon as possible. All applications should include: a resume and brief cover letter (this is important!) explaining your vision, your interests, core capacities and skills for this position.
