Help make sure no Republican gets a free pass into office!
Every year, hundreds of thousands of public offices go uncontested nationwide. Contest Every Race recruits regular people with good values to run for office in red and purple states, so we compete everywhere while building the Dem bench and helping get out the vote.
We're hiring a Political Research Team Organizer to help lead a team of volunteers who search online and make hundreds of phone calls to county and municipal election officials, learn which races are up for election and to check who has filed to run, and to help with other volunteer-driven research projects as needed.
This job is a great way to make a real difference in American politics from anywhere in the US. We're getting traction and proving that our methods work, so our program is growing. You can grow with us as a key member of a small, distributed team, led by people with high-level experience. You'll work directly with volunteers who are passionate about turning our country around. Your role will be to help manage the day-to-day volunteer operation, structure the volunteers' work, monitor their progress, check their accuracy, and keep their spirits up.
You are naturally systematic in your approach, detail-oriented, have great online research skills, are comfortable with repetitive research-oriented work, have a positive, assertive, yet tactful phone manner, are driven toward efficiency, have strong, persuasive writing skills, and you love making sure google sheets are filled out meticulously. Your attitude is to "get things done". And you have a passion for politics or for beating back racism and fascism.
Part time for first month / probationary period at $20 per hour, then ramping up to full time if the fit is right. Health benefits after 6 weeks of successful onboarding. Seeking a commitment through December 2020.
Mostly remote, though we have a co-working space as well in Oakland. Email Peter@resistancelabs.com with your resume, availability, and a bit about how your background and interests are a fit for this role. Be sure to begin your subject line with "Research Team Organizer".
