[jobsthatareLEFT by GAIN] Lift every voice in America’s fourth-largest and most diverse city (Deputy Field Director)

The Sylvester Turner for Mayor Campaign – Deputy Field Director

The Sylvester Turner for Mayor Campaign is seeking full‐time deputy field director applicants for a data driven volunteer field operation. Deputy field directors will be responsible for executing the field plan and for supervising regional field directors, along with their field organizers, within their assigned region. Deputy field directors will report directly to the field director. Sylvester Turner is running for a second term as Houston's mayor. Perhaps best known for leading his city with grace and grit through the devastation of Hurricane Harvey, Mayor Turner has been in public service for more than 30 years – fighting to lift up those who depend on government the most, so that everyone in Houston and Texas can live with dignity and respect. 


Houston is the 4th largest city in the country and this election will be one of the most competitive and important races of the 2019 election cycle. The November 5th election is nonpartisan and should no candidate earn a majority of votes, will head to a runoff election in December. Those battle-tested in Houston this year will be ready to be on the front lines of competitive races across the country in 2020 and beyond.
