Who We Are
Sunstone Strategies is a mission-driven communications and public affairs firm focused on equitable solutions to the climate crisis. We lead state and federal communications campaigns to phase out the nation's largest sources of fossil fuel pollution.
Sunstone was established in 2018, but our roots run deep—with a staff that pulls from decades of experience in issue communications, justice-oriented advocacy and climate policy. Sunstoners offer a rare mix of policy expertise, campaign strategy, digital communications and the best public relations skills in the business.
About the Role
We’re looking for an exceedingly competent, climate policy-obsessed addition to our team who is eager to strengthen their communications, PR and/or public affairs chops. This is a fantastic opportunity to learn from climate leaders and engage your skills by working on campaigns on behalf of diverse coalitions and stakeholders to secure climate policy advancement.
The ideal candidate has an interest in federal and state climate policy politics and in learning how to design and lead communications strategies for social change - with a driving passion for undoing the social license of the fossil fuel industry. Our issue areas include: the transition to 100% clean energy, pollution-free buildings, and zero-emission cars and trucks.
We are looking for a self-starter with strong attention to detail, and a determination to develop professionally, while exemplifying human-centered values as an overall reflection of the work.

Why Choose Sunstone?
Sunstone is a team of seasoned high-performers, dedicated to delivering unparalleled campaign communications support to partners. Our partners turn to us for our policy campaign expertise and ability to do what it takes to further the climate movement and to develop and lead winning media strategies.
While we work on the edge of what most think is impossible, we take care of ourselves and one another. We hold a highly effective and distinctive work practice, that is diligent and one that equitably centers care.
Our Commitment to Racial Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Climate Justice:
Sunstone Strategies is an equal opportunity employer and is committed to transparent and equitable recruitment, hiring and promotion processes that foster inclusion and belonging.
