MFStrategies, LLC is looking to hire a new Finance Associate to help maintain current accounts in Western Pennsylvania and grow our profile in the region.
About the Job
Day to day responsibilities will include building and implementing campaign finance plans for clients, managing candidate call time/follow-up, managing fundraiser logistics (host coordination, guest list development, RSVP tracking, processing contributions, pledge follow-up, etc.), and conducting relevant research for donor information. We're a small company, so other tasks might be assigned to you on an as needed basis.
This is a "seasonal" job, so you'll be part of our team until December 31, 2018. In the past, we've been able to grow and make seasonal hires part of our permanent staff, so it is possible the position will be extended through 2019.
The position's responsibilities will primarily be in Western Pennsylvania with regular travel to Harrisburg (2 to 4 times a month). Expect to start between March 5, 2018 and March 19, 2018.
About You
We're looking for a creative, detail-oriented, self-motivated campaign finance professional with 1 to 3 prior cycles of campaign experience.
Our internal donor research is stored in NGP and we encourage all of our clients to also get subscriptions, so experience with at least NGP 7 is required. Experience with NGP 8 is a huge plus. Advanced knowledge of Microsoft Excel will be helpful and be sure to let us know if you have any experience writing computer code (any language).
Above all, be willing to learn new skills and be open to approaching common problems in new ways.
About Us
MFStrategies was founded in 2015 by Marty Santalucia as a way to develop new, exciting, and creative ways of helping progressive candidates and organizations achieve their goals. We have since grown to a team of three full-time staff, helped our clients raise millions of dollars, and have never stopped looking for better ways to build winning campaigns. Be sure to check out our website: www.MFStrategies.com!
One big thing that sets us apart is how we approach campaign work as a whole. We focus on fostering a healthy work environment where staff can maintain a work-life balance, even during the chaos of an election. We do the best work for our clients when we've got something to look forward to at the end of the day.
We're proud of what we offer our team:
- Competitive pay
Everyone's time and effort is valuable so we make sure our staff is paid well for all the amazing work they do. - 40 hour work weeks
Campaigners have this idea that good work can only be done by sitting at your desk for 12 hours a day, even if 6 of those hours are spent socializing or on Facebook. Rather than trying to outlast each other, we go home to get some actual rest. The work we do the next day is better for it. - Work from where you want
MFStrategies is a completely remote company with employees working where and how they are most comfortable. We have a small shared space in Harrisburg for meetings but ditched our formal office in 2017. - Open PTO policy
Campaign work is exhausting, which is why it is important to take time and recoup every once in a while. As long as everything is getting done, work should move around life — not the other way around. - Paid holidays
Vacations are great even when they're just spent at home relaxing, and they give us all something to look forward to. We offer a number of paid holidays each year (16 in 2018) that are announced well ahead of time so everyone has the chance to maximize their hard-earned time off.
Ready to Apply?
If all of this sounds like a great fit for you, send a cover letter, a sample campaign finance plan for a hypothetical state house candidate, and your resume to marty@mfstrategies.com.
