Corporate Accountability International is hiring an Associate Campaigns
Director to lead our growing Think Outside the Bottle campaign.
Think Outside the Bottle is a campaign working to promote, protect and
ensure public funding for our public water systems. That means
challenging corporations who undermine public confidence in tap water.
It also means working with public officials, faith groups, restaurants,
celebrities, campuses, and individuals to support public systems by
opting for tap over bottled water.
Corporate Accountability International has several other positions for
organizers, fundraisers and more available in Boston and DC. Go to
www.StopCorporateAbuse.org for details and instructions on how to apply.
