Volunteer with HQ

Leadership Team Overview

 

Engineers for a Sustainable World (ESW) is a growing collection of technically-minded people looking to make the world a better place. The Leadership Team is a team of volunteers from around the country working remotely in a digital environment to run the nonprofit side of ESW.

 

Our general requirements, regardless of position, are as follows:

  1. You need to be passionate about sustainability and agree with our mission, vision, and values.
  2. You need to be able to commit time to the organization, including regular conference calls. We find that in order to be effective, most positions require 5-10hrs/week on average, fluctuating by season.
  3. Proactiveness is important for the digital environment that we work in.
  4. You don't have to be familiar with ESW-HQ - we're friendly people, and we'd love to meet you.

 

About working with ESW
We accept applicants from all over the country. ESW volunteers work in a digital environment. We use Slack, Google Suite, and Zoom to communicate with each other. If you aren't familiar with these technologies, no worries! We'd love to teach you.

 

To apply, please send a position-specific resume to [email protected]. Feel free to add a short "Why me" (up to 150 words), as we would love to know you better!

CRCs also reach out to new schools in target geographical areas to find faculty and students that may be interested in starting new ESW chapters. CRCs are instrumental in onboarding these new chapters and helping them get off to a successful start.
