Friends of the Earth Europe (FoEE) is looking for a campaigner for our work on Trade and Investment, starting December 1 2020 and based in the FoEE office in Brussels.
Friends of the Earth Europe campaigns for sustainable and just societies and for the protection of the environment. It unites 31 national organisations with thousands of local groups and is part of the world's largest grassroots environmental network, Friends of the Earth International.
The campaigner will work within the Economic Justice (EJ) program. Our Trade and Investment work is embedded in our Trade campaign, which primarily focuses on investment issues such as ISDS and MIC, the Energy Charter Treaty, the EU-Mercosur deal and the link between trade and climate. We also keep an eye on potential new TTIP negotiations, discussions on an alternative trade regime, EU-Indonesia negotiations and work with our national member groups on ratification of the CETA agreement. The Trade campaign is cross program work in FoEE and the Trade and Investment campaigner will work closely together with colleagues in the EJ program and with campaigners in other programs.
The campaign involves FoEE member groups and it works closely with key NGO allies in Brussels and in different EU member states.
For this position we are looking for a highly organised, experienced, creative, energetic and motivated individual. The campaigner will report to and be task managed by the coordinator of the Economic Justice team.
