About the Role
The goal of this position is to pressure major food corporations to adopt and implement policies to phase out the use of animal products that originate from the worst forms of animal production systems, with a focus on intensive confinement practices. Our current ask in Latin America is for companies to stop using or buying eggs from hens confined in cages. The Campaigns Manager will be the main person coordinating activists and leading campaigns that target local and regional companies and ask them to improve their policies. They will also help our communications team with content for the local website, blog, and social media and with translations from English to Spanish.
