Work on Climate (WoCl) is a leading non-profit focused on mobilizing humanity’s talent to build a regenerative, climate-positive economy.
You probably know us for our online community — the world’s largest climate career and action community — which has helped thousands of people find climate jobs, start companies, and build impactful networks. We’ve been featured in Fast Company, the New York Times, Wired, and more.
But our work is entering a new chapter beyond helping individuals find climate jobs.
We’re now supporting professionals to engage in climate leadership — organizing, mobilizing, and transforming whole sectors and regions toward regenerative futures, through regional chapters of issue-focused work. (Read more about this transition here).
Building a regenerative economy is not just a hiring problem. It is a coordination problem.
The Mentorship team exists to make those connections happen at scale, with warmth and rigor.
We’re looking for a Mentorship Team Lead who will steward two connected pathways:
In this role, you will ensure our mentorship program serves both chapters and individuals effectively — matching the right expertise to real challenges, while helping members clarify their unique contributions. This work is as much about cultivating the right philosophy, mindset, and approach as it is about connecting people with sectoral knowledge.
Our most successful team leads dedicate 10 hours/week consistently and consider this a long-term volunteer position. Teams benefit the most from leaders who stick with the organization long enough to incorporate the mission into their program design and philosophy.
You will bring focus and momentum to a volunteer team, while keeping the work grounded in WoCl’s current mission.
We are looking for someone who can hold both mission and operations.
Please fill out this application form to tell us about your skills and interests. We strive to reach out within 1 to 2 weeks. Generally, our recruitment process includes a 30-minute screening with a recruiter and a 30-minute interview with the Team Lead.
