Project coordinator

We wish the next few lines were self-explanatory, but we know they're not. At Republik, our mission is clear: to help brands change the world. To do that, we need to create an inclusive environment and build a diverse team where everyone feels free to put their convictions to work and where they can feel heard and encouraged. We believe in recruitment, hiring, training, compensation and promotion that doesn’t discriminate on the basis of race, religion, skin color, nationality, gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, physical disability, age, language, accent or any other characteristic that makes us unique. We also believe that bringing people together with different identities, experiences and abilities helps us to truly understand the communities we work with, so we can be even more creative. And so the industries we work with can change.

Republik is seeking a coordinator interested in working with brands that take concrete actions for the environment and society. The ideal candidate will work closely with the entire advisory team and serve, among other roles, as the right hand to the advisors. They should have strong organizational skills, a high level of autonomy, and the ability to communicate easily with various stakeholders.

Working with us means taking the time to imagine a more sustainable and equitable world through projects driven by conviction, conversation, and change. Our multidisciplinary talents work in synergy to co-create brand and societal projects that match their ambitions.

Alright, so what's the job?
