Read about our values here. Plan C works to transform access to abortion in the US by normalizing the self-directed option of abortion pills by mail. Over the past decade, Plan C has reached tens of millions of people across the US with information campaigns, spreading the word about the method and informing the public on what’s real and available and cementing the term or brand “Plan C” as household shorthand for abortion pills. Plan C cofounders have been named on Fast Company's Most Creative People in Business and as a Rock+Health Systems Disruptor; Plan C’s work has also been featured in the documentary PLAN C and in most major press/media outlets, and the online resource hub was recognized with a 2026 Webby Award for Best Activism Website.
The Director of Communications leads Plan C's communications strategy, creative direction, and integrated campaigns to expand public awareness and understanding of abortion pills by mail and safe home abortion. This position translates organizational priorities into compelling, coordinated communications that reach new and diverse audiences, strengthen Plan C's visibility, and advance its mission of transforming abortion access in the United States. Serving as both a strategic and hands-on creative leader, the Director oversees Plan C's communications efforts across campaigns, social media, design, video, paid media, public relations, and emerging channels.

Scaling emerging cultural media properties
Investing in established cultural media properties

Driving civic engagement campaigns
Accelerate Change is seeking an equity-centered Director of People Operations with experience in people management, leading a People Operations Department and creating strategies to make People Operations more effective, efficient and inclusive. We’re looking for someone who loves all aspects of People Operations and also enjoys finding ways to improve our current strategies.
Here’s what you could expect to do as Director of People Operations (key responsibilities):
Oversee the People Operations Department, including ensuring the overall success of the Department, the team and its outcomes.
Oversee the complete employee lifecycle for the Central Team and incubated partners, starting with the onboarding process and continuing through with staff retention efforts to offboarding.
Manage salary and compensation packages, growth plans and promotion proposals.
Oversee the onboarding process for incoming new staff, providing a seamless transition and communication throughout the process.

Movement Labs
Managing Director
Movement Labs is a program incubator and consulting firm that uses technology, data, and randomized controlled trials to win elections and build progressive power. Since 2017 we have run more than 250 RCTs on voter behavior.
We are building the next generation of political infrastructure. Your job is to create the organizational leverage that lets exceptional teams execute. This is fundamentally a scaling role. You report directly to the founder and CEO, who will continue to focus his energy on strategy, fundraising, new programs, and the greatest opportunities for impact. You will ensure that the organization itself is built to support those goals. You have personally helped take an organization, business, or program through significant growth and understand what has to change as scale increases. You know how to translate growth strategy into operating reality: the structures, leadership capacity, management practices, planning rhythms, and decision rights that let a larger organization stay fast and effective.
The title Managing Director is intentionally broad. We are open to different leadership profiles and will shape the role around your strengths.
You might be a highly strategic chief-of-staff-type leader: an exceptional generalist who runs the leadership team, drives priorities and decisions, solves complex cross-organizational problems, and serves as a close thought partner and proxy to the founder.
You might be a more operational COO-type leader with direct responsibility for functions such as people, finance, legal, operations, technology, or program delivery.
Many compelling candidates will sit somewhere between those two profiles. What is not flexible is the core mandate: create the organizational leverage, operating discipline, and leadership infrastructure that will enable us to approximately double in size while preserving the speed, experimentation, high standards, and mission focus that have made us successful. (10/22/26)
This is a fully-remote position with travel for leadership retreats and key meetings. Target start date is January 2027; flexible for the right candidate. Salary range position is $200,000 - $250,000.
