DESCRIPTION
An Idaho Health Care Campaign is Hiring a Campaign Manager for a 2018 Ballot Campaign
Our Campaign: Our ballot measure will expand Medicaid for 78,000 Idahoans, ensuring they have access to quality, affordable health care, a basic foundation of a fair economy and a decent life. It will provide health care to individuals earning less than $17,000 per year, like working moms and near-retirees who got laid off because of their age and can't get a job with health benefits. It will ensure people are not forced to decide whether they can afford life-saving care – like cancer treatment or heart medication – for themselves or their families. This statewide ballot campaign will give voters the opportunity to weigh in on this issue and to make progress for people of Idaho. The campaign is currently in the signature-gathering phase.
This Job: First and foremost, the Campaign Manager is responsible for developing a path to victory for the Medicaid expansion campaign and managing staff, consultants, and resources to achieve that goal. The Campaign Manager will manage the budget and campaign strategy and timeline, coordinate cash flow and fundraising, and manage staff and consultants to design and execute the communication strategy (earned and paid) and field strategy. The campaign manager will serve as point person for stakeholders, funders and others to get most up-to-date information about the campaign. They will also coordinate compliance activities and be responsible for recruiting and managing campaign consultants from research to direct mail and paid media. The campaign manager reports directly to the Steering Committee.
