Federal Campaigns Assistant
Reporting to: Federal Outreach Manager
WHO WE ARE:
ActBlue builds and maintains a powerful online fundraising platform for Democratic campaigns, progressive organizations, and nonprofits working to create a better future. We put power in the hands of small-dollar donors by making it easier for grassroots supporters to make their voices heard and by helping thousands of groups — from presidential candidates to environmental organizations — build people-powered movements.
We're a nonprofit organization, and our team has a big impact on the future of our country. Each and every one of us, from the political activists to the tech innovators to the customer service pros, is fully committed to our mission. We're excited to grow this team and get ready to take on even bigger challenges as we look toward 2020 and beyond.
THIS ROLE:
The Outreach Team attracts, supports, and trains all of the Democratic campaigns and progressive organizations that ActBlue partners with. This is an entry level position on our Federal Campaigns team, which focuses on working with new and established federal campaigns plus related organizations. We get new and existing campaigns signed up to use our tools and train them to build successful grassroots fundraising programs.
We're looking for someone with campaign experience who is interested in digital fundraising and online organizing. The Federal Campaigns Assistant will work to track federal campaigns and identify key decision makers, maintain our visibility within the federal space, and closely support the rest of the Federal Campaigns team as we teach campaigns about our fundraising platform while making sure that they are getting the most out of our tools.
ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:
Identify and reach out to new federal campaigns and related organization leads.
Actively establish initial relationships with decision makers on federal campaigns.
Research and organize our knowledge of federal campaigns, related organizations, and their digital capacity.
Travel to events and conferences once or twice per quarter to represent ActBlue and the Federal Campaigns team in person.
Work as part of a small team to develop priorities and outreach strategies in the federal space.
Own metrics associated with relationship building and auditing the current state of federal digital organizing.
QUALIFICATIONS:
Entry level with some campaign experience.
Genuine passion for small-dollar, digital fundraising and providing the best service to every campaign and organization we work with.
Strong written and verbal communication skills. You understand that details can make or break a successful project.
Enthusiasm about initiating and building strong relationships with campaigns.
Experience working independently. While you'll be collaborating and strategizing as part of a team, lots of your day-to-day work and outreach will be independently driven and managed.
Flexibility. We are looking for someone who is adaptable, can handle a wide range of projects, and work with a wide variety of clients.
Bonus points: Someone with expertise in Google sheets who is comfortable collecting, organizing and tidying datasets. Experience with other CRMs and software products such as NGP, Action Kit, or Blue State Digital and interest in digital organizing is a plus.
LOCATION & COMPENSATION:
ActBlue's office is located in Davis Square in Somerville, MA, just a few blocks from Boston's MBTA Red Line train. This posting is for a full-time, in-office, salaried position. We offer a competitive salary and a generous compensation package, which includes commuter benefits, fully paid and trans-inclusive health, dental, and vision insurance, an employer-sponsored 401k contribution plan, and a flexible time off policy.
