About EHS
We are solutions-focused and equity-driven.
We work with and within science and journalism to elevate power within communities and create opportunities so that race, gender, and/or ZIP code do not predict your health or environment.
We believe that progress is never a result of scientific discovery alone; it requires other forces: crusading journalism, advocacy, politics.
The Graphics Designer joins EHS at a time of growth and expanded opportunity – and in fact is essential to building that energy as EHS marks its 20th anniversary and expands to new work, markets and audiences.
We value diversity, work in the open and do everything we can to give back to the journalism, research and nonprofit communities. EHS is an equal opportunity employer, and we’re actively seeking to increase diversity in our operation and across the fields of science, communications and journalism. We encourage applications from communities traditionally underrepresented in science and news media.
If you have any questions about this role before applying, you may book a 20-minute hiring hotline call with EHS director Douglas Fischer.
