<h3 class="font-head text-24 leading-none md:text-28">A reimagined industrial sector that works for communities, workers, and the climate is within reach. It requires more than just cleaner methods of making steel or cement, but a transformation of our politics. There’s so much opportunity, and the benefits are so great, but big change can be hard to imagine when the problem has vexed us for decades.</h3>
<div class="pt-text md:text-16 lg:max-w-sm mt-5">
Industrial transformation is possible, but it won’t happen on its own. We need better stories that plant the seeds of inspiration. From a foundation of shared data and analysis, we need more people with a range of expertise applying targeted pressure through focused campaigns to demand change.

Transforming industry for climate impact through data-driven advocacy and community-focused campaigns.

About UsHeavy industry is the foundation of modern society. We need materials like cement, steel, and aluminum more than ever to rebuild our bridges and roads, construct wind and solar projects, and manufacture electric vehicles and heat pumps that will undergird our future. But industry needs a second revolution. For as much as industry made the middle class and ushered in a remarkable era of prosperity for many, it also threatens our climate, reinforces environmental racism, wastes valuable materials and energy, and leaves communities and workers behind. At Industrious Labs, our mission is to set into motion unstoppable policies, people power, and analysis to make a triple impact on climate, justice, and jobs that drastically reduce dangerous emissions, make industry accountable to communities and workers, and develop a circular economy.About the PositionGuided by an inspiring vision, strategic plan, and significant early financial investment, we seek an entrepreneurial Senior Field Strategist to join our team. Industrious Labs is fully remote, but for this position, candidates living/working in California may be best suited for this work. This role reports to Partner and Field-Building Director Dominique Thomas. In this newly created position, the Senior Field Strategist is a highly skilled relationship builder with a proven ability to establish, grow, and sustain diverse coalitions of stakeholders. The Senior Field Strategist is energized by the challenge of the climate crisis, inspired to step into a new era of the movement and has a strong track record of working with diverse groups such as organized labor, environmental justice advocates, and policymakers. This is a public-facing role for an equity-centered leader with a solid track record of working in coalition with others and building capacity and collective vision across diverse perspectives and experiences. In doing so, the Senior Field Strategist further establishes Industrious Labs as a national leader in industrial decarbonization and a go-to resource for policymakers, policy influencers, climate advocates, and community leaders.Industrious Labs is poised to kick off a new Clean Heat initiative, initially focusing on California and a parallel national effort. Working collaboratively with partners over the past year, we have identified an exciting strategy to dramatically reduce greenhouse gas emissions and dangerous air pollution from industrial heaters and boilers. Today, these heaters and boilers burn fossil fuels to produce needed heat for industrial processes, but in many cases, this equipment can be replaced with all-electric or other zero-emission alternatives. Thanks to a visionary funder, we have received sufficient early-stage backing to begin pursuing this opportunity.Along with this role, Industrious Labs is currently hiring a Senior Campaign Strategist and Senior Campaign Analyst for the Clean Heat initiative. The Senior Field Strategist will work within this new, dynamic team. Our high-level objectives for the Clean Heat initiative include (but are not limited to):<ul><li>Accelerate zero-emission state policies and regulations that clean up and transform industrial facilities;</li><li>Launch a coalition focused on industrial electrification to build power and pressure on policy-makers; and </li><li>Increase the urgency for policy-makers to act by building awareness of the harms created by fossil combustion at industrial facilities and the benefits of transformation.</li></ul>The Senior Field Strategist holds key responsibilities that will evolve over time as the team grows and functions are distributed. During the first year of the role, we anticipate a push to build our own understanding of current and potential coalition partners, including community-based organizations, and to deepen relationships with stakeholders who will be impacted by cleaning up industrial process heat.
