JOB DESCRIPTION

Description

We are currently hiring 2 people for this role and are open to strong candidates in any major city anywhere in the country. Top priority cities are Chicago, San Diego, Denver, and San Jose/Bay Area.

About the Program: Movement Labs is launching 'Beers & Ballots,' an innovative program designed to leverage blue-city/-state volunteers for swing-state voter impact.

Beers & Ballots organizers and volunteers go to bars showing football games for swing state teams (or, in swing states, any bars), then buy patrons a drink who help mobilize their swing state friends to vote.

About the Role: We are seeking a dynamic, scrappy, dedicated, and goal-oriented Field Organizer to lead Beers & Ballots in their respective city.

Requirements

Key Responsibilities:

  • Get permission to run Beers & Ballots program at local bars.

  • Recruit, train, and oversee volunteers for game days.

  • Sign up bar patrons yourself (you will be responsible for around 25% of your signup goals).

  • Track and accurately report on data.

  • Perform other duties as assigned.

Qualifications:

  • At least one year or one cycle experience in community organizing, outreach, or electoral campaigns.

  • Ideally, experience with street or door canvassing, and certainly no hesitations about approaching strangers!

  • Strong interpersonal skills and a knack for relationship-building.

  • Strong leadership skills.

  • Recruitment and training experience.

  • Ability to work evenings and weekends.

  • Passionate about community engagement for social change.

  • Excellent communication and organizational skills.

  • Ability to adapt to a fast-paced environment and work independently.

  • Familiarity with local city.

Benefits

This is a temporary position through November 15.

Salary: $60,000/year, with possibility of performance bonuses for exceeding signup goals.

Movement Labs employees receive excellent health, dental, and vision benefits, 401k, and work-life-balance stipends.
