Assistant Campaign Director - Grassroots Campaigns (Seattle)

Assistant Campaign Director:
Posted by: Grassroots Campaigns, Inc.
Seattle, WA, US
Completing your college degree shouldn’t mean the end of your idealism - don't let your next step in life mean sitting behind a desk doing something you don't love, everyday.

Instead, stand up for progressive causes, work with amazing people and make an impact every day. It's not just a dream job, it could be your job.

Grassroots Campaigns is hiring recent college graduates to run our campaign offices across the country to stand up for equality.

If hired, you will manage one of our campaign offices, build community support, educate the public, and recruit new members for leading non-profit partner organizations, like the ACLU, the Nature Conservancy, or Save the Children. Grassroots Campaigns is actively working on campaigns to protect the environment, fight poverty, and protect women’s rights.

In this position, you will take on leadership and responsibility, while learning how to run a field campaign. You will need strong communication and motivational skills, work ethic and the desire for political change. You must have the leadership ability to oversee a team and an orientation towards handling substantial responsibility.

Applications are considered on a rolling basis. Qualified applicants will be contacted about opportunities with Grassroots Campaigns within a week.
