WHO WE ARE

The Humane League (THL) is a global nonprofit ending the abuse of animals raised for food. THL fosters a high-energy culture of teamwork and mission-driven problem solving, and we have earned recognition as Top Charity from Animal Charity Evaluators for all of their rating periods. Over the past few years, we’ve grown to a staff of 100+ talented individuals dispersed across the country and around the world. At The Humane League (THL), how animals are treated in the food system is at the forefront of our everyday work. As such, many of our staff are vegan by personal choice, and all of our THL-hosted events offer fully vegan menus. We welcome all mission-aligned candidates to apply, no matter where you are in your journey to end the abuse of animals raised for food.

YOUR OPPORTUNITY

The Humane League is seeking a tenacious, determined, and well-organized individual with deep knowledge of laying hen welfare and the drive to create progressive change for millions of animals. The Temporary Animal Welfare Specialist (known internally as the Temporary Global Technical Lead or Temporary Global Technical Manager) is part of a small, high-impact global team specializing in corporate outreach and policy. The primary focus of this position is to deliver advice on farm animal welfare science to inform animal welfare campaigns and corporate engagement efforts. This requires extensive research and close collaboration with other organizations in the Open Wing Alliance (a global coalition of animal protection groups) to prepare for meetings with food companies and strategize on advocacy tactics from a scientific perspective.

We want you because you are as comfortable reading and writing research papers as you are in the boardroom and on the farm. You have a deep understanding of how the egg industry works and are determined to use this knowledge to improve conditions for laying hens. You are excited to bring your knowledge to advocates around the world and work with them to put theory into practice. 

The ideal candidate is passionate about The Humane League’s mission of ending the abuse of animals raised for food and excited about working both independently and as a member of a team in a dynamic environment.

This position requires both domestic and international travel, equivalent to 3 or more week-long trips per year.

The new team member’s title will be either Temporary Global Technical Lead or Temporary Global Technical Manager, depending on their experience and qualifications. Please see below for more information about the responsibilities and qualifications which distinguish the Temporary Global Technical Lead role from the Temporary Global Technical Manager role.

We are only able to consider applicants who reside and possess work authorization in the United Kingdom.

We will be recording a webinar hosted by Mia Fernyhough, Sr. Director of Global Animal Welfare, and Siân Phillips, Sr. Global Technical Manager, Layers.
