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 Operations Team ensures the smooth functioning of one of the most complex political financial operations in the country. The Financial Operations Associate will assist the Operations Team in managing ActBlue's unique internal finances. A successful candidate will have previous bookkeeping experience, be able to effectively prioritize and solve problems, and be comfortable with self-directed independent work. The position involves handling highly sensitive financial information, so serious attention to detail and discretion are a necessity. The successful candidate must also be able to adapt to our particular financial and bookkeeping idiosyncrasies!


YOU WILL:

  • Process invoices and credit card charges using QuickBooks Online software
  • Manage staff reimbursements using Expensify reimbursement software
  • Prepare and make bank deposits
  • Manage cost-sharing among related organizations
  • Organize and file various financial records

YOU ARE:

  • Averse to errors
  • Compelled to arrive at the correct answer
  • A fan of systems and driven to find efficiencies within them
  • Able to effectively exercise independent judgment when applying internal financial standards
  • Able to manage competing priorities and meet hard deadlines
  • Able to adapt and grow professionally as position and responsibilities evolve
  • Familiar with QuickBooks or a similar application
  • Excited about our mission of empowering grassroots donors and increasing participation in our democracy and society. We love what we do, and you should too!

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.


ActBlue is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate against candidates on the basis of race, ethnicity, religion, sex, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability status, or veteran status. Women, people of color, LGBTQ individuals, and members of other minority or marginalized groups are strongly encouraged to apply.


ActBlue cannot at this time sponsor work visas.


WHAT TO EXPECT NEXT:


We will be reviewing resumes and scheduling phone interviews on a rolling basis for this role over the next few weeks.  


After a brief phone interview, candidates that we are interested in moving forward with will be invited to a face-to-face interview with our Operations Team (in person or via video based on location). This interview will be the last step in the process for candidates. We will then contact professional references for those candidates still in consideration.


We will communicate with active candidates at each stage of the process about our timeline.
