In short, you are confident, you are relentless, you elevate others, and you are a freedom fighter-the core values of Pacific Legal Foundation. Them: Bureaucrats, city councils, mayors, governors, and federal agencies stripping Americans of their rights every day.

Day to day, here's what you'll do:· Collaborate across PLF teams to execute events ranging from webinars and networking receptions to complex, multi-day seminars and conferences.· Develop and implement new ideas to level up event experiences.· Manage on-site execution to ensure events run smoothly and exceed attendee expectations.· Coordinate event materials and manage inventory.· Serve as an external-facing representative of Pacific Legal Foundation at network conferences and events.· Travel to PLF events up to 30% of the year (may include weekends). GENERAL INFORMATIONPacific Legal Foundation identifies and litigates important legal issues to set landmark precedents that will benefit Americans nationwide. Using strategic and principled litigation, communications, and research, we battle for freedom in the nation's courts and the court of public opinion. As a national nonprofit organization, PLF has brick-and-mortar offices in Sacramento, California; Arlington, Virginia; and Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, although approximately half of the staff work from home offices across the country. This role would be required to work out of the Arlington office at least twice a week. TO APPLYApplicants must submit a résumé and cover letter. The résumé should have the usual: your professional experience, as well as your academic credentials. The cover letter should explain why PLF is the place for you, why you want to fight for liberty, and what distinguishes you from typical applicants.About Stand Together Fellowships Learn more about Stand Together Fellowships.
