Pennsylvania Voter Contact Canvass Directors -- Reading
Vote Blue Reading, PA
Vote Blue’s mission is to mobilize progressive voters to get to the polls in the 2020 election using door-to-door canvassing. We are currently seeking Canvass Directors to join us on an important and exciting campaign to provide the strategic field operation necessary to win this fall. We are hiring for multiple Lead Director and Deputy Director positions. There is so much at stake in this election. As we have seen over the last 4 years, leadership in government matters more than ever. Nearly 200,000 Americans have died of COVID19, and Donald Trump is on the record saying that he intentionally withheld information about it and downplayed its severity. Millions of acres are currently burning in wildfires in Washington, Oregon, and California in one of the largest natural disasters in history. We need our government proactively addressing climate change, not trying to open up the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to new oil drilling. Systemic racism is real and clearly at the forefront of our collective daily lives. Yet as more Black people are shot or killed by police, Donald Trump and Republicans stoke racial tension for political gain. We need a change in leadership, and we need it fast. The election on November 3 will be the most important of our lifetimes. Very likely, this race will decide which party controls the Senate. The key to winning is a strong ground game. Canvass Directors will recruit, train, and manage a team of local canvassers to go door-to-door in strategic locations and speak with voters about their voting plans. Additionally, the Lead Campaign Director will manage a team of one or more Deputy Directors, and will be responsible for building an office to scale from the ground up. This position reports to the Project Director. COVID-19 has altered the political landscape, but one thing remains the same - we will need to have in-person conversations with people to get out the vote. Thankfully, we can do this with low risk. We will provide PPE and substantial health and safety training, and we have developed a canvassing protocol that will allow us to do this critical work while keeping our staff and the people in our communities safe. We are hiring immediately. This position runs through November 3, with opportunities to extend through the Election and beyond. Locations: This listing is for Reading, PA. Short-term travel may be required. Canvass Management Responsibilities: • Work with a voter targeting list to build walk lists and train others to do so • Collaborate with our recruitment team to identify and hire members of the community to work as canvassers who will make contact with targeted voters to speak with them about the upcoming election • Manage a team of 20-70 canvassers, setting and driving goals along the way • Implement health and safety protocol, including ensuring adequate PPE for all staff and compliance with daily health and safety guidelines • Knock doors several days a week yourself to train staff and help drive office goals by having effective conversations with voters • Administrative duties, including working with the HR Director on payroll, onboarding and offboarding staff, and compliance Qualifications: • Leadership experience, ability to motivate, grow, and manage a large team • Prior experience running a canvassing operation is preferred. We will consider candidates with comparable management experience. • Ability to work long hours, including evenings and weekends • Familiarity with VAN a plus • Extreme attention to detail and a proven ability to instill that quality in others • Self-starter with excellent problem-solving skills • Strong passion for community organizing and fostering civic engagement Salary: The salary range for this position is $1,200-$1,400 per week. We offer a generous benefits package, including paid vacation and sick leave, health insurance, and hands-on training. At the end of the campaign, there may be opportunities for advancement and bonuses. At Vote Blue, we prioritize equity and inclusion. We are an equal opportunity employer and we strongly encourage Black, indigenous, people of color, women, people with previous felony convictions, members of the LGBTQIA+ community, and others who identify with underrepresented groups to apply.

American Oversight
State Program Coordinator
American Oversight Washington D.C., DC, USA
American Oversight is seeking an extraordinary candidate to coordinate a major new initiative to bring our investigative watchdog expertise to bear on the problem of voter suppression and the corruption of democracy at the state level. American Oversight uses state and federal open records requests, backed by aggressive litigation, to expose corruption in government. Now, in addition to American Oversight’s extensive federal anti-corruption mission, we are using the same tools to uncover the paper trail left behind when politicians, activist groups, and dark money conspire to entrench themselves in power by limiting who can vote. Secrecy makes their efforts possible. The evidence we uncover will inform the public, support civil rights litigation, and augment policy advocacy for change. As State Program Coordinator, you will be American Oversight’s internal and external hub for anti-voter suppression efforts, coordinating our litigators, investigators, and communicators with like-minded organizations and actors. You will help us identify investigative targets and find ways to put the evidence we obtain to use for change. An ideal candidate is an excellent organizer and relationship builder, a sponge for information, and a master at distilling complex or voluminous information to make it compelling. A typical day will involve tracking the news, digging into substance with American Oversight staff, reviewing documents, and staying in close contact with partner organizations at the state and federal levels. American Oversight currently is active in Florida, Georgia, and Texas, but is exploring expansion into new jurisdictions. In the future, American Oversight’s state-level work may expand beyond voter defense to other corruption issues. The State Program Coordinator will work closely with American Oversight’s leadership to chart strategy and inform resource allocation decisions. At the same time, they will be close to the work, often jumping on opportunities as they arise to ensure maximum impact.

RESPONSIBILITIES Coordinate and develop strategies for open records investigations in individual states, as well as for American Oversight’s broader state-level program. Develop and manage upward and downward communications about the state program to keep everyone informed and working together. Work with American Oversight management to coordinate efforts of American Oversight staff focused on state-based work. Read widely to stay abreast of relevant news and identify information germane to existing investigations or potential new ones. Cultivate relationships with other organizations at the state and national levels to identify potential lines of inquiry, understand local dynamics, and discover opportunities for impact. Participate in the drafting and review of open records requests. Review documents obtained through open records requests. Work with American Oversight’s investigations team and partner organizations to identify significant information in the documents we uncover. Work with American Oversight’s communications and investigations teams as well as partner organizations to leverage and publicize finds and create messaging materials. Represent American Oversight in meetings with coalition partners. QUALIFICATIONS Four or more years of experience in organizing or issue advocacy. Familiarity with working in coalitions or with partner organizations. A strong foundation in voting rights issues preferred. Excellent organizational and project management abilities. Demonstrated people management experience. Exceptional writing, research, and verbal communications skills. Sound judgment and analysis. Familiarity with open records laws or tools is helpful but not required. A passion for details and for seeing the full puzzle from a handful of pieces. An entrepreneurial spirit and passion for helping American Oversight build something new. Comfortable in an evolving startup environment. Ability to work effectively on multiple projects, balance priorities, and excel in a team-based, collegial environment is essential. Spanish language skills are helpful but not required. We believe the above qualifications do a good job describing the kind of candidate we are seeking; however, if you think you’re perfect for the job but don’t check every box, please apply and tell us why you’d be a great fit. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION American Oversight is proudly an equal opportunity employer and is committed to building a diverse team.

The salary range for this position is $80,000 to $100,000, commensurate with experience. We offer a 403(b) plan with an employer match and generous health-care benefits.
