Full-time Position Available:

Field Manager for NJADP’s Abolition campaign


New Jerseyans for Alternatives to the Death Penalty (NJADP) is seeking a field manager for its new state campaign to replace the death penalty with life imprisonment without parole (LWOP). This grassroots campaign works to end executions by raising public awareness about systemic inequities and other issues corrupting the imposition of the death penalty in New Jersey and in the United States. A key argument in favor of abolition of the death penalty is the availability of LWOP as an alternative to capital punishment. This position would work at the campaign’s office in Trenton, NJ. The field manager will work closely with NJADP’s Steering and Executive Committees made up of committed individuals, including representatives from various supporting state organizations, as well as professional lobbyists and political consultants. The Field Manager will report to the Executive Director.
