We seek a dynamic, science-savvy, education-driven performer to deliver ACE multimedia presentations on climate change to high school students in greater Atlanta and surrounding areas.  (Check out our trailer to get a taste of our presentation.)

We also need a power-networker to build partnerships with schools, nonprofits, media reporters and prospective funders.

Our Educators work from home when they’re not giving presentations, meet about once a week with the local team, and convene occasionally with other regional teams. We require a self-starter who is able and willing to work independently.

The Organization:  The national leader in high school climate education, ACE delivers award-winning multimedia assemblies on climate science and solutions to high schools nationwide, with more than 830,000 high school students served in two years. After the assembly, we help students kickstart Action Teams to take on carbon-cutting projects, anything from starting a recycling club to solarizing their school.

We’re a young, dynamic nonprofit organization off to the races on making a complex subject relevant, interesting and fun. We’re data-centric and tech-savvy, nimble and creative, passionate and results-oriented. We have a resident Fun Team and an impressive professional development process. 

We want to help great people get greater—and make ACE terrific. More at http://acespace.org.
