Fight for the Future

What is Fight for the Future?

Fight for the Future is a digital rights advocacy organisation founded in 2011 and headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts. The organisation is widely recognised for leading high-profile campaigns defending internet freedom, online privacy, and free expression. Their campaigns have mobilised millions of people to take action on issues like net neutrality, mass surveillance, and content censorship.

Fight for the Future has played a pivotal role in some of the most significant digital rights victories of the past decade, including the successful campaign to preserve net neutrality and opposition to surveillance legislation. The organisation combines grassroots mobilisation, creative campaigning, and strategic advocacy to protect digital rights for everyone.

Where will I work?

Fight for the Future operates as a fully distributed, remote-first organisation. While nominally headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, team members work from locations across the United States. The remote-first model has been core to the organisation's culture from early on, enabling them to recruit talented advocates and technologists regardless of geography.

What is the team like?

With approximately 23 employees, Fight for the Future is a small but highly effective team of campaigners, technologists, designers, communications specialists, and policy advocates. The team is passionate about digital rights and has a track record of punching well above its weight in terms of impact. The culture is collaborative, mission-driven, and empowering.

Work-Life Balance

Fight for the Future operates a 4-day, 32-hour work week at full salary. The organisation recognises that advocacy work can be intense and unpredictable, with campaign surges requiring focused bursts of energy. The 4-day week ensures staff have adequate time to rest and recharge, sustaining the team's ability to respond effectively to emerging digital rights threats.
