The Sylvester Turner for Mayor Campaign - Field Organizer
The Sylvester Turner for Mayor Campaign is seeking full-time field organizers for a data driven volunteer field operation. Field organizers are responsible for building a grassroots network of volunteers capable of turning out enough voters to deliver a margin of victory within their assigned turf.
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. Here is who you would be working for.
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.
Responsibilities include but are not limited to:
· Recruiting, managing and training volunteers to participate in direct voter contact activities including canvassing, phone banking, and voter registration.
· Meeting and exceeding strict daily, weekly, and monthly goals including volunteer recruitment dials, volunteer shift recruitment, volunteer shift completion, and volunteer productivity.
· Preparing canvass and phonebank materials for volunteer activities.
· Adhering to a strict daily reporting schedule.
Qualifications:
· Strong interpersonal skills, including the ability to successfully relate to voters and volunteers from a wide range of backgrounds.
· Ability to work independently and in team settings.
· Ability to work long and irregular hours in a fast paced, metrics driven work environment.
· Basic computer literacy and database skills.
· Must have reliable access to a vehicle and a valid driver's license.
· One year of campaign experience or community organizing experience preferred but not necessary.
