### **About the Program:**
Ahead of the 2024 elections, Movement Labs is launching a political tactic incubator with unprecedented ambition.

These efforts will target low-turnout, high-opportunity voters in marginalized communities, persuade Republican voters toward President Biden, and enhance voter registration efforts. The objective is to garner 50,000 votes for Biden ahead of the November Election.
### **Details & Compensation **
Location: Remote

### **About the Role**
Movement labs is hiring for the role of Digital Director for the 2024 cycle. This role is a mission critical position for our Political Innovation Incubator - it leads execution for any political innovation idea that involves implementing any digital paid media.

If pilots are successful, work includes scaling those ideas up ahead of the 2024 election. This role will report to and work closely with the VP of Political Innovation.
This role will oversee several pilot projects. One example: Online Voter Registration - targeting different unregistered universes with digital ads to see if they’re more likely to register to vote if we send them to the government’s online voter registration site versus sending them to our Movement Labs registration portal. This role will be responsible for quickly testing the effectiveness and feasibility of such programs and then scaling up those that prove most effective.

- Vendor Management: Maintain relationships with creative agency/contractor and other external vendors or consultants, establishing clear expectations to ensure timely delivery of campaign assets/services.
- Data-Driven Decision Making: Utilize data and analytics to inform strategies and make adjustments to campaigns in real time to enhance effectiveness.
- Reporting & Systems: Create all campaign tracking systems and regularly report out on campaign performance and experimental results to organization’s leadership, offering insights and recommendations for future initiatives.
## **Requirements**
- Cycle Experience: At least two cycles of experience in a digital role on a campaign or digital agency, preferably within or on behalf of a political, advocacy, or nonprofit organization.

- Proven Problem Solving: Ability to think creatively and strategically to get a project executed, including trying novel and new tactics and an ability to seek expert input.
- Communication Skills: Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to effectively convey complex ideas to a variety of audiences.
- Agency Management: Demonstrated ability working with creative agencies or graphic designers, including the ability to write effective creative briefs and provide actionable feedback on creative deliverables to ensure creative assets are aligned with research goals.
