Requirements
- Who we're looking for
- We care about capability and judgement, not sector background. You may not have worked in animal advocacy, and that's fine with us; we value different perspectives from those who are outside of the sector.
- You probably have:
- A track record running major integrated campaigns: brand, political, cultural or advocacy, at real scale and pace.
- Genuine fluency in the Bay Area and its culture, or the ability to acquire it fast. You understand why an ad that works in London might not work on the 101.
- Experience building and leading small high-performing teams from scratch.
- Strong instincts for creative work and the confidence to make calls on tone, humor and taste, plus the humility to test them.
- Comfort owning budgets, plans and outcomes, and making balanced calls at speed.
- Comfort operating with founders, funders and senior media owners, and the ability to open doors in rooms where Slingshot isn't yet known.
- Appetite for the mission. You don't need to be vegan. You do need to believe factory farming should end and be willing to say so in public.
- Success looks like
- By the end of the first six months: the San Francisco launch has landed hard, the founding US team is hired and performing, and Slingshot is a name the Bay Area tech and philanthropic community knows.
- Within twelve months: the US campaign strategy is clear, ambitious and on track; campaigns and activations are earning attention, pressure and momentum; advertising and marketing spend is coordinated, cost-effective and demonstrably working; the US team is thriving with clear priorities and strong delivery; and Slingshot is visible and connected across the US movement, with the next city in planning.
Benefits
- The practical details
- Location: San Francisco Bay Area preferred, with regular presence in the city and travel to London initially and to future US campaign cities.
- Reports to: Chief Executive Officer and the Co-Founder & President
- Scope note: this role owns campaigns, marketing and the US team; US entity operations, legal and finance are supported by our US operations function, so you can stay pointed at the campaign.
- Compensation: Annual base salary ranges are determined based on the location of the successful candidate. For candidates in the San Francisco Bay Area, or NYC Metropolitan Area, the salary range is $130,000-$150,000. For candidates in other high-cost metro areas, the salary range is $120,000-$140,000. For all other US locations, the salary range is $110,000-$125,000.
- Benefits: Paid time off, paid holidays, medical insurance options
- Hire Date: As soon as possible

- Step 1: submit your application here - if you wish to include a cover letter, please submit with your resume as one document
- Step 2: our team will review all applications and arrange initial screenings
- Step 3: shortlisted candidates will be invited to multiple round interviews
- Equal employment opportunities

We are committed to fostering an inclusive, respectful, and harassment-free environment where everyone feels valued and supported to do their best work.
