Only One

Chief of Staff

Only One is a campaigning organization set up to protect the ocean and stabilize the climate. We build campaigns that move governments, industry, and institutions, working alongside partners, scientists, creators, and communities around the world. Since 2020 we have grown to a team of 25, spread across multiple countries and time zones. We are small for the scale of what we take on, which means everyone here has real ownership and the work moves quickly.

We’re hiring a Chief of Staff to sit on our leadership team, work closely with the CEO, and hold the machinery that lets a small organization run a large agenda. This role builds on strong foundations. The current Chief of Staff has been in the role for two years, and depending on start dates we intend a proper overlap between them and their successor. This is the role that connects intention to action. You’ll own how we plan: setting the annual cycle, translating strategy into priorities teams can act on, and tracking whether we’re getting there. You’ll own how we decide: guiding the leadership team, holding the decision record, and making sure what gets agreed actually lands. You’ll own how we’re held accountable: four board meetings a year, our committees, and our obligations as a US non-profit. And you’ll hold the line between money and mission, keeping our funding pipeline pointed at our strategic priorities rather than pulling us away from them.

A lot of this work takes the form of writing. You’ll produce board papers, strategy documents, and the memos that help a team understand a difficult decision. Alongside that, you’ll lead one or two special projects at any time: pieces of work that need a senior owner but don’t sit with any one team, such as standing up a new function, or working out how we grow without losing what makes us effective. It’s a broad role, deliberately. If you like holding the whole picture, working closely with a CEO, and building the systems that let ambitious people do their best work, this role will suit you. You’ll also be doing it in service of something that matters, at a moment when the decisions being made about the ocean will hold for decades. (9/23/26)

This is a full-time, remote position with a global team and flexible hours. Salary range for this position is $140,000 - $170,000.

Compensation for this part-time, 25% FTE (minimum 10 hours/week) role is a monthly retainer of $1,600. We will regularly review this new role to ensure the estimated hours accurately reflect the workload.

Spirit of Justice

Payroll and Operations Specialist

SOJ is building a spiritual home for those who dare to dream of a more just and loving world — a beloved community where people from all backgrounds can deepen their inner lives, strengthen collective purpose, and transform themselves as they work to transform the world. SOJ was founded by acclaimed civil rights lawyer, legal scholar, and author Michelle Alexander, and is co-founded by Nyle Fort, a gifted minister, organizer, and scholar based at Columbia University; the organization is fiscally sponsored by Union Theological Seminary. 

SOJ’s work rests on three core pillars that provide the home’s foundation:  1) Storytelling, including a podcast hosted by Michelle Alexander that explores the spiritual lives of people committed to justice and liberation; 2) Sanctuary, creating spaces for communities to engage in collective spiritual practice, fellowship and service, anchored by monthly and eventually weekly services, pods, movement chaplaincy and spiritual care, and a digital resource hub; and 3) Seminary, including the development of a curriculum which anchors both political education and spiritual formation in the long lineage of revolutionary love. Together, these pillars lay the foundation for the co-creation of beloved communities nationwide, a spiritual home shaped with care and intention by the very communities SOJ seeks to serve.

The Deputy Director is a foundational organizational leader and strategic partner to the Executive Director.  The person will build and steward the financial systems, operational structures, fundraising capacity and internal practices that will carry Spirit of Justice from a fiscally sponsored project toward a durable, independent institution, capable of holding this vision for the long haul.
