Job description


The Organization

Our Mission:
CAMERA, the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting and Analysis,is the leading organization exposing and countering anti-Israel narrativesin the media, online, and in schools. 

Foundedin1982 tomonitor bias in print andnetwork media, CAMERA has since broadened itsexpertisetoconfront misinformation directed at Israel and its supporters, wherever it exists. CAMERA corrects falsehoodsand distortionsinthe legacy media,expose disinformationonsocial mediaandother digital platforms, tackleantisemitism in K-12 education, support pro-Israel students on college campuses,and challenge anti-Israel campaigns targeting Evangelical Christian churches and communities. 

With offices in Boston, Massachusetts and Jerusalem, Israel, and staff workingvirtually acrossthe United States and United Kingdom, CAMERA operatesat the forefront of the information battlefield to expose biasandpromote truth,in turnstrengtheningsupport for Israel worldwide.CAMERA's mission and work have never been more important. 

Our challenge, the scope of the problem:
Inaccurate and distorted accounts of events in Israel and the Middle East are found everywhere - online, on campus, in the press, and in the pews. Sources of bias have expanded from television and newspapers to fashion magazines, architectural publications, encyclopedias, textbooks, and travel guides. Social media and podcasts now spread misinformation with unparalleled reach and speed. These inaccurate and skewed characterizations of Israel and of events in the Middle East fuel anti-Israel and anti-Jewish prejudice, putting Jewish life and lives at risk.

How CAMERA works:
CAMERA systematically monitors, fact checks, and critiques Middle East coverage and commentary. Staffers directly contact reporters, editors, producers and publishers about distorted and inaccurate coverage, offering factual information to refute errors. CAMERA supporters are encouraged to write letters for publication in the print media and to communicate with correspondents, anchors and network officials in the electronic media. CAMERA's combination of rigorous monitoring, research, fact checking, careful analysis, and grassroots efforts have had a documented impact.

How the public is kept informed:
Supporters receive periodic mailings, magazines and monographs detailing key media issues.
Supporters of CAMERA's e-mail team receive frequent Action Alerts and information.
Frequent articles on this website.
CAMERA's Facebook page: www.facebook.com/CAMERA4Truth
CAMERA's Twitter feed: www.twitter.com/CAMERA4Truth
CAMERA's YouTube page: www.youtube.com/CAMERA4Truth

In addition, CAMERA staffers regularly assist supporters seeking specific information.
CAMERA's work is frequently cited in the secular and Jewish press and in journalism reviews.

CAMERA on Campus
Increasingly, campuses have been the scene of propagandistic assaults on Israel. Distorted literature, extreme speakers and false, inflammatory images are all too common, creating harmful misperceptions of Israel. This hostile environment can be intimidating to students seeking fair and objective information on Middle East issues.

CAMERA's campus website, Camera on Campus, and its affiliated blog, give students access to specialized information useful in countering misinformation. CAMERA also provides one-on-one assistance to students who encounter Middle East distortions in campus publications, flyers, rallies and classroom teaching.

K-12 Education
Anti-Israel activists have increasingly turned to K-12 schools to target students with slanted accounts of the Middle East. CAMERA is confronting the problem with its K-12 work. 

International monitoring
CAMERA engages with the media internationally through its international-facing programs: CAMERA UK, CAMERA Espanol, CAMERA Arabic, and CAMERA Hebrew.

Partnership of Christians and Jews
CAMERA's Partnership of Christians & Jews is a powerful response to the intensifying effort to delegitimize Israel in Evangelical churches throughout North America and Europe, and to the media's shameful silence about the alarming rise of Jew-hatred worldwide.

Position Summary
The next Chief Executive Officer will lead one of the largest and most respected media-monitoring organizations in the United States with an annual budget of $9 million and a staff of approximately 64 in three offices on three continents, Boston, London, and Jerusalem and will be based in Boston.

The CEO will lead at a pivotal moment in a rapidly evolving 24/7 digital information landscape and must be both strategically forward-looking and digitally savvy, able to leverage social media and emerging platforms to expand CAMERA's reach, shape narratives in real time, and significantly broaden the organization's impact.

Key Responsibilities

They will bring emotional intelligence, strong presence, and the ability to galvanize stakeholders around a shared purpose, fostering alignment, energy, and commitment.
