A progressive candidate in the upcoming Queens Borough President (NYC) special election is seeking a Field Director to manage the day-to-day execution of the campaign field plan. This position will oversee an extensive staff and have significant autonomy to execute on campaign strategy within the bounds set. This position is for immediate hire and will likely last through March 2020, though the date is dependent on the exact date of the special election.
Key candidate skills:
- Strong organizational skills
- Strong verbal and written communications skills.
- A keen understanding of the importance of good data
- Enthusiastic about progressive politics, particularly climate change advocacy
- Attention to detail and an ability to work independently towards success under the intense time pressure that is a three-month long special election campaign
- Grace and enthusiasm under pressure
Relevant Notes:
- Prior experience in a field or management position on a campaign is required. This is a senior position with more than a half-dozen direct reports.
- This position will be coordinated with but does not include a significant paid canvass operation; the Field Director will be primarily responsible for management of the volunteer and organizational field program.
- Experience in New York City a plus but not required if a candidate has sufficient other experience.
- Queens is the most diverse big County in America and we are looking to build a campaign team to match. Women, People of Color, LGBTQIA individuals, young people, and other historically disenfranchised populations are strongly encouraged to apply.
Salary is highly competitive.
To apply, please submit a cover letter and resume to BarryJCaro@gmail.com with the subject line "Queens Field Director."
