The Alliance is currently looking for a part time LPSC Education Coordinator, to educate Louisiana residents on state level, electric utility regulation and opportunities for engagement at the Louisiana Public Service Commission (LPSC), as well as work with partner organizations who do Get Out The Vote efforts.

This is a part-time (20-30 hours/week) temporary contract position through December 2024. Apply by submitting your resume and a cover letter to info@all4energy.org.

​The LPSC is often referred to as one of the most impactful, elected positions that no one knows about and we aim to change that through this position. Nearly all of Louisiana’s energy decisions are made at the LPSC, including the applications for new power plants, review of rate increases, intrastate oil pipelines, and the fate of our long awaited Energy Efficiency programs. This year is an election year for one of the five elected Commissioners. Each term runs six years, with a three term limit, totaling up to a possible 18 years in office. This election is crucial for Louisiana residents, and we need engaged voters who understand the power of the LPSC.

We seek someone with existing ties to communities and civic organizations in District 2, with organizing and outreach experience. This person would need to be confident in working closely with Louisiana’s diverse communities to empower individuals to engage with elected officials in a potentially unfamiliar place. A relevant college degree or equivalent experience is preferred, although not required.
