Description The American Immigration Council works to strengthen America by shaping how America thinks about and acts towards immigrants and immigration, and by working toward a more fair and just immigration system that opens its doors to those in need of protection and unleashes the energy and skills that immigrants bring. The Council brings together individuals adept at solving problems and employs four coordinated approaches to advance change—litigation, research, legislative and administrative advocacy, and communications.

Preferred Qualifications: Interest in Web Development: A keen interest in learning front-end web development skills (HTML, CSS, or basic CMS templating) is a plus. Experience with Google Ads: Experience managing or assisting with Pay-Per-Click (PPC) campaigns, particularly Google Ad Grant campaigns, is highly desirable. Familiarity with a Content Management System (CMS) like WordPress, Drupal, or similar. Experience in a non-profit, advocacy, or mission-driven environment. Occasional travel may be required for this role, including attendance at meetings, conferences, or events as necessary to support the organization’s initiatives and objectives. Compensation and Benefits: The salary range provided reflects a reasonable estimate of the annual salary based on The Council's commitment to equitable and market-competitive pay. The actual salary offered will depend on several factors, including, but not limited to, relevant education, qualifications, years of experience, certifications or professional licenses, job-related skills, internal equity, and business needs.

Typically, individuals are hired at or near the starting point of the salary range for their role.

Additionally, full-time and part-time employees working at least 20 hours per week on a regular basis are eligible to participate in The Council's comprehensive benefits program, which includes medical, dental, and vision insurance, an employee assistance program, a 401(k) retirement savings plan with matching contributions after 3 months of employment, generous paid time off, paid parental leave, professional development opportunities, and employer-paid life insurance and disability benefits.
