JOB DESCRIPTION

About Us:

Legion is an award winning, history-making outreach consultancy specializing in boots on the ground and phone outreach. From sales outsourcing to public pressure campaigns, we deploy canvassers and callers to identify, interact, and influence. Legion’s team claims major victories: COVID-19 frontline outreach, rolling out the nation’s largest curbside composting program, and deep canvassing in political swing districts. Phonebanking, surveying, persuasion, door-to-door canvassing, street canvassing, petitioning, flyering, tabling, we do it all. Rapidly scaling up and down, Legion’s hiring pipeline champions an automated system, while maintaining human oversight. 

 

But all that success and optimization is gravy. Legion’s truly unique advantage is our combined might: marrying military discipline, Fortune 500 Tactics, and political savvy. We create and maintain agile and disciplined operatives at every level who can work a political campaign one month, then a real estate persuasion or corporate sales project the next. 

 

That’s why unions, politicians, government agencies, developers, hotels, and even movie theaters all trust Legion.
