Company Description

This position is posted by The Foundation to Support Animal Protection (FSAP) on behalf of PETA. FSAP provides general and administrative support services to PETA and other charitable animal protection organizations. People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) is the largest animal rights organization in the world. PETA works through public education, cruelty investigations, research, animal rescue, legislation, special events, celebrity involvement, and protest campaigns.

Job Description

Working at the world’s largest animal rights organization is not for those looking for a typical office job. Think of a time where you were in a fast-paced environment and multiply that by ten and then throw in a good measure of passionate colleagues and supervisors all motivated by the same notion of animal liberation as you are! Now you have a slight peak into #PETAlife!

We have positions that speak to all different levels of experience and expertise. They range from covering the front desk, packaging literature for activists, assuring budgets remain on track, data is managed and PSA’s are shot and edited, to meeting with executives - encouraging cruelty-free business conduct, and leading demonstrations across the country. We have positions for every interest, with the ultimate goal of providing our employees the opportunity to explore all departments of the organization and find their best practice in the fight for animal rights.

The above doesn't cover every opportunity or even department, but gives the gist of a career at PETA/PETA Foundation. 

If you feel that you have a background that will support a position at PETA and the drive to work relentlessly for animal liberation, chances are you will be a great fit for our organization, complete this brief application and we’ll be in touch!
