Key Responsibilities:

· Excellent Communication Skills: Strong verbal communication skills, with the ability to engage with diverse groups of people.

· Self-Starter: Ability to work independently and as part of a team in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.

· Detail Oriented: Strong attention to detail, especially when handling data and tracking outreach efforts.

· Organizational Skills: Ability to manage multiple tasks and prioritize effectively in a busy environment.

· Flexible Schedule: Availability to work evenings and weekends as required, especially during peak campaign periods.

· Technology Proficiency: Comfort with basic technology (email, social media, spreadsheets, etc.) and willingness to learn campaign-specific tools and databases.

Preferred Qualifications:

· Previous experience with political campaigns or volunteer organizing is a plus but not required.

· Familiarity with local political issues, demographics, and community organizations.

· Fluency in Spanish is a plus if working in a multilingual area.

Learning Opportunities:
