Social media/marketing intern

Otter makes it easier for people to choose the products and services that are best for them and their world. Our goal is to help overcome the barriers faced by consumers who want to make ethical consumption choices.

Otter is a start-up social enterprise. We develop tools to better enable consumers to make consumption choices consistent with their values, and through those choices promote environmental sustainability, fair trade, human rights, consumer safety and ethical treatment of animals.

In June 2013 we launched Otter as a fortnightly curated eNewsletter that provides readers with hand-picked tips and guides, consumer actions, events and more. We are working on further tools to support consumers make ethical consumption decisions.

The following positions are now available.

  • Development director this position has been filled
