Project Assistant

BWG seeks a Project Assistant eager to work on a variety of projects in one or more of the firm’s practice areas: Clean Air, Climate Justice and Transport, Clean Energy, Racial Justice, and Equitable Conservation Planning. We work to change systems by transforming culture and bringing benefits, resources, and economic opportunities to communities of color, especially climate vulnerable and environmental justice communities. BWG’s projects range from advising on clean energy development, to developing strategies on equitable outdoor access, natural resource protection, and community benefit agreements. We lead state policy campaigns to accelerate clean transportation policies and facilitate coalitions and processes that advance equitable, economic, and just policies in the face of a rapidly changing climate.

The Project Assistant will gain a variety of skills integral to their development as an emerging environmental and climate advocate and policy professional. The Project Assistant will work independently and as part of a team to craft thoughtful and strategic interdisciplinary policy and campaign approaches that will create equitable, healthy, and sustainable communities across the U.S.
