We have a roster of exceptional, international clients & partners who are making real impact in politics, the environment, labour relations, and human rights, to name a few. We work exclusively with NationBuilder as a platform and pride ourselves on being experts in how to use the tools to get the most out of the platform.

The job:

We’re looking for a motivated front-end web development coordinator, responsible for building the front-end development of web properties. We’re a small shop of experienced people who need a capable hand to help create the beautiful, responsive and effect web properties our clients expect. This is a new position but you’ll be working with a strong and committed team with a track record of web success!

You will:

• Be responsible for front end development, such as turning working AI files into mobile responsive NationBuilder-powered sites
• Test for bugs, browser and mobile compatibility of client properties.
• Ensure compliance with basic principles of web accessibility
• Integrate custom software such as Ajax, Javascript, jQuery, Google Fusion Tables or other services/languages where necessary

• Ability to learn new languages and tools
• Passion for progressive politics and social change
• Take initiative, and problem solve independently
• Experience with NationBuilder is preferred but not required

You should be:

Progressive and want to change the world. You’d rather see Tom Mulcair running your country than any of those other folks. You think legislation to control catastrophic climate change is a better idea than dangerous pipelines. You think First Nations people have a right to self-determination and nationhood. You love data-driven decision making.

Salary $40,000-45,000/year and negotiable for the right person
