"The BLIS Collective (Black Liberation-Indigenous Sovereignty) is a cross-movement Solidarity and Action Hub that braids narratives and grows movements. Our mission is to spark radical collaboration and narrative alignment between and within Black, Indigenous, and transformative social movements to repair, decolonize, and reshape culture.
"As Deputy Director, you will partner closely with our current Executive Director to guide BLIS through a period of expansion. You will help steer strategic vision, strengthen operational and organizational muscle, and build the conditions for long-term resilience across our ecosystem of members, partners, and funders.
"You will help define what it means to build and steward a Solidarity & Action Hub, where research, coalition-building, storytelling, capacity building, and membership organizing converge. This role is equal parts architect, conductor, and storyteller—guiding internal systems, cultivating movement and funder relationships, managing a dynamic team, and playing a leadership role in reparative and solidarity movements.
"The ideal candidate pairs strong political analysis with operational discipline, can hold complexity and nuance, and leads with humility, accountability, and care. They bring deep expertise in the Land Back movement, fluency in narrative and cultural strategy, and a commitment to building something designed to last far beyond any single campaign or moment.
"This is a full-time, fully remote position. This position requires significant domestic and occasional international travel, approximately 35% of the time. BLIS Collective is a fiscally sponsored organization of Possibility Labs, a 501c3 nonprofit headquartered in San Francisco, California."
