Our Workplace

At the Roosevelt Institute, you can build a rewarding career within the progressive movement; help make our economy and democracy work for the many and not the few; and find the support, coaching, and training you need to advance your career. We recognize that the culture of the workplace and opportunities for career growth and development are important to all. We believe that diversity of background and experience among our people make our work to rewrite the rules of our economy and society stronger and better.

Our Work

Roosevelt takes on today’s greatest challenges by advancing bold, cutting-edge research and policy ideas. We believe that the future of the American economy and our democracy depends on a new way of thinking about markets and government. Too few people hold too much economic and political power today, and we know that a stronger society is possible if we rectify this imbalance between private actors and the public. With a commitment to transforming corporations, restructuring markets, reviving democratic institutions, and reimagining the role of government, our work moves our nation toward a more resilient, equitable, and green future. Join us in restructuring our economy to make both the private and public sectors better serve more Americans.

Roosevelt Society Author-in-Residence
The Roosevelt Society’s Author-in-Residence program provides experts with the resources, community, and expanded platform to work on a book manuscript that explores bold paradigms for creating a healthier, more democratic economy. This fellowship is a key component of Roosevelt’s mission both to build the progressive economic field and to reframe the most pressing challenges of our day so they are understood not just as technical problems, but as issues of power relations and political economy. We hope the Author-in-Residence program will provide much-needed infrastructure for authors to incubate their ideas, push public discourse forward, and open new possibilities for realizing a more just and more resilient future.
