Los Angeles Field Representative
Oceana is seeking a passionate, strategic, and community-driven Los Angeles Field Representative to join our U.S. campaigns team. This role focuses on building grassroots power in Los Angeles, CA to advance ocean conservation goals and protect marine life and coastal communities.
As Los Angeles Field Representative, you will lead state and local efforts to support Oceana’s campaigns on plastic pollution, offshore drilling, responsible fishing, and the protection of marine species. You’ll mobilize volunteers and community leaders, build strategic coalitions, engage decision-makers, and generate local support through events, outreach, and media. Working in close coordination with colleagues in Washington, DC and other field regions, you will translate national strategies into impactful grassroots action across Los Angeles, CA.
This is a remote position based in Los Angeles, CA and requires regular travel within the state, occasional travel to Washington, DC, and the flexibility to work evenings or weekends when needed.
The ideal candidate has experience organizing at the community level on policy campaigns and is comfortable managing a fast-paced workload with shifting priorities. A bachelor’s degree and two or more years of relevant experience or four years of direct campaign work are required. Candidates should have a demonstrated ability to engage and motivate others, plan and execute events, and manage grassroots networks over time. Familiarity with LA’s political and environmental landscape is essential, and prior work on ocean or conservation issues is a plus.
Join a passionate team of professionals dedicated to protecting marine wildlife and ecosystems while strengthening the ocean’s ability to sustain a growing global population. Founded in 2001, Oceana is the world’s largest nonprofit solely focused on restoring ocean abundance and resilience. Through science-based campaigns, we drive policy action in key countries that govern nearly one-third of the world’s wild-caught fish, including Belize, Brazil, Chile, Mexico, Peru, the Philippines, the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, and the 27 countries in the European Union. Our work delivers measurable change, ensuring a healthier future for our oceans and the communities that depend on them.
