[jobsthatareLEFT by GAIN] Basecamp Strategy (Washington, D.C. and remote) is seeking talented, passionate, and hardworking rock stars to join our political training program as Fellows.

It's clearly time for new leadership in Washington. If you want to break into politics and make an impact on the 2020 election, this is the program for you.


With campaigns moving online, digital fundraising is more important than ever and there's never been a better time to jump into our world. YOU can help the candidates we need in Washington get there by raising BIG $$$ for Democrats. 


This program will help you understand how campaigns are funded, how campaign teams operate, and how to get a full time job in politics. (Past fellows are now either working for us or are working on campaigns around the country.)


A Basecamp Strategy Fellowship isn't for the faint of heart. Our work demands a lot of us, and we love delivering the best possible results for our clients because the work of electing Democrats is too important to do it any other way. And because, above all else, we hate doing mediocre work.


We're seeking Fellows to join two programs: 


Digital Fundraising Fellowship: Our Digital Fundraising Fellows focuses on helping our data and production team by learning the ins and outs of database management and email production. You'll learn to produce and code emails (we'll teach you HTML if you don't know it!) and help prepare our digital content to be deployed flawlessly across digital platforms. You'll analyze results data to figure out what worked and what didn't, playing an essential role in our work to create digital fundraising content that drives results.


High Dollar Fundraising Fellowship: We are also looking for ONE High Dollar Fundraising Fellow to join our Director of High Dollar Fundraising in their effort to unseat some of our country's worst Republicans by raising millions of dollars before Election Day. This Fellow will learn how to prospect and build relationships with major donors using digital tools, traditional call time, and high end engagement strategies. 


Application process:
If you are detail-oriented and quick-learner, please send an email with a one-page resume, a 100 words or less statement on why you want to work in Democratic politics in 2020, and a 100 words or less statement on what previous experience has prepared you for this role to jobs@basecampstrategy.com


Please use the subject line "[Firstname Lastname] - Basecamp Strategy Fellowship" and indicate in the body of your email whether you are applying for the Digital Fundraising Fellowship or High Dollar Fundraising Fellowship.


Qualifications:

+ Results-oriented team player who can take direction and execute a variety of tasks flawlessly
+ Strong multitasker with ability to meet deadlines and follow checklists to ensure content goes out 100% error-free and on-time
+ Strong commitment to electing Democrats to office

+ Interest in impacting our country's future by raising money to unseat Republicans and re-elect progressive Democrats to office 



About Basecamp Strategy:

We win tough races and elect incredible people by raising our clients as much money as possible online. But we're a different kind of digital fundraising firm: We motivate with honesty and authenticity. We're digital storytellers. And not only do candidates, donors, and voters prefer our style but we've also seen time and again that this kind of content drives the strongest fundraising results.


The best digital strategies have yet to be invented -- and we're here to innovate and do just that. And we can only do exceptional work if we have the best team in the business. We're a team of specialists that's here to challenge assumptions and figure out what performs the best today, not what worked in 2012, 2014, 2016, or November 2018.


Our approach has garnered us notice, and our team is growing and evolving quickly. No one is doing the same job they were doing six months ago or even three months or a month ago. You'll be asked to learn quickly, and the moment you've nailed it, we hope you'll be ready to learn something new. If you love a fast-paced environment, doing tremendously good work efficiently, thinking outside the box, and figuring out how to go from great to incredibly great, then you'll love it here.


Details: 

Fellows will receive a $1,000/month stipend. Our office is located in Washington, D.C. but for now the program will be run remotely. We're looking for candidates who can start right away.


Equal Opportunity Employer: 

Basecamp Strategy is an equal-opportunity employer. We approach every hiring decision with a commitment to workplace diversity. We affirm and seek diversity in gender, race, color, ethnicity & national origin, age, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, class, religion, ability, life experiences, and background as both a positive contribution to our organizational environment and a critical asset for informing and enabling our work. 


Reasonable accommodation will be made so that all qualified applicants may participate in the application process. Please advise in writing of any necessary accommodations at the time of application.
