The Need
For over 25 years, IJM has pioneered the work to protect vulnerable people from violence. 9 out of 9 times in the last decade, IJM’s Justice System Strengthening Projects have reduced slavery and violence between 50 and 85% for very large populations of people in poverty. As we grow to expand our impact to protect 500 million people from violence, we are seeking a Campaign Director, Strategic Partnership.
As IJM accelerates its mission to rescue 1 million people and protect 300 million from violence, we are seeking a dynamic, results-driven Vice President of Mass Market Engagement to lead and grow IJM’s mass audience revenue. This role is responsible for developing and executing integrated strategies that drive lead generation, acquisition, retention, and supporter experience through mass channels.

The VP will bring a marketer’s mindset and a revenue leader’s discipline, using data, creativity, and operational excellence to build a world-class supporter experience that fuels long-term impact.
This position is hybrid (onsite Tuesdays & Thursdays) if located in the Washington, DC area or remote for non-local candidates. It reports to the Chief Marketing Officer and is only available for candidates with the right to work in the US.
