ABOUT RAN
For more than 30 years, Rainforest Action Network (RAN) has campaigned to preserve forests, protect the climate and uphold human rights by challenging corporate power and systemic injustice through research, education, partnerships, peaceful direct action, grassroots organizing, strategic campaigns and communications. We are committed to working with Indigenous and frontline communities directly impacted by profit-driven systems of injustice. In partnership with allies from around the world, RAN challenges corporations to stop destructive operations, respect human rights, and adopt policies that reduce their contributions to climate change.
RACIAL JUSTICE, DIVERSITY AND EQUITY
RAN strives to integrate values of equity and fairness into our work, which includes bringing an intentional racial justice and cultural equity analysis to our programmatic work and organizational structure. We strive to create an internal culture built on mutual trust, collaboration, and respect where all staff feel supported, valued, and heard.

THE POSITION
RAN is looking for a Japan-based Senior Campaigner to support RAN’s finance sector campaigning activities in and related to Japan; we anticipate this position beginning work in January 2024. The position will primarily support RAN’s Forests and Finance Team, but also work in close coordination with RAN’s Japan-based staff as well as our Climate and Energy Program. In this position you will develop and support comprehensive corporate campaigns to push the Japanese financial sector to halt its support to industries driving deforestation, climate change and human rights abuses. That includes designing and coordinating campaign strategies, collaborating with a range of national and international partners, conducting policy analysis, and engaging directly with corporate decision makers. The ideal candidate will be a collaborative, curious, and organized thinker who enjoys interacting with a range of people whether inside RAN, in corporate meeting rooms or at street demonstrations, with a deep commitment to human rights, justice and the environment.
