Salary: $85,000 - $130,000

The National Center on Sexual Exploitation (NCOSE) is a nonpartisan 501c(3) nonprofit with a mission to prevent sexual abuse and exploitation at mass-scale by eliminating institutional practices and societal norms that perpetuate these harms. Every person and child deserves to live free from sexual harm. NCOSE advances human dignity through 1) civil litigation against institutional facilitators of sexual abuse, 2) corporate advocacy to hold the private sector accountable to stop enabling or profiting from sexual exploitation, 3) public policy at the state and federal level to advance commonsense solutions. NCOSE exposes the links between all forms of sexual exploitation and prioritizes key issues such as pornography, sex trafficking / prostitution, online child sexual abuse and grooming, sex buyers, deepfake/AI sexual abuse, and more. NCOSEs advocacy has led to victories with Google, Instagram, Hilton Worldwide, Walmart, TikTok, legislation like the Take It Down Act, and active litigation against Pornhub and X (formerly Twitter) on behalf of abuse/sex trafficking survivors.

Join this high-energy, high-impact team to be a part of creating a better world for generations to come.

Position Overview:

The Director of Corporate Advocacy will play a central role in advancing NCOSEs mission by galvanizing private sector companies to no longer normalize or profit from sexual exploitation. This position is ideal for someone who is energized by investigating and exposing harmful corporate practices, continual learning about established and emerging technologies, and building relationships with allies, survivors, and corporate executives.

This role will lead the corporate advocacy department to roll out public activism campaigns like the Dirty Dozen List, which names 12 mainstream companies that facilitate sexual exploitation, providing proof and talking points for media, and laying out recommendations for corporate policy changes.
