Senior Associate, Cross-Cutting, Safer Chemicals Project

Please include both a resume and a cover letter with your application. Safer Chemicals Project Pew's Safer Chemicals Project aims to measurably reduce Americans' exposure to harmful endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs). The project focuses on reducing exposure to the most harmful EDCs in use in the near-term, while laying the foundation for longer-term policy reform to prevent additional harmful EDCs from being introduced. The Safer Chemicals Project is a collaboration between Pew's Environment and Government Performance portfolios. The Environment Portfolio focuses on science-based, nonpartisan, and sustainable solutions to help protect the planet and people. We work in partnership with governments, Indigenous rights holders, intergovernmental organizations, non-governmental organizations, local stakeholders, scientists, and other researchers to advance public policy so that nature and communities can thrive. The Government Performance portfolio provides the nonpartisan research, solutions, and momentum decisionmakers need to ensure our institutions improve the health of people in the United States and enable them to successfully climb the economic ladder. Those goals are pursued through a wide range of the portfolio's policy-focused projects (with explorations into new areas underway)-from ensuring states' finances are prepared for future volatility, to unlocking gateways to mental health care, to addressing the nation's lack of attainable housing.
