JOB DESCRIPTION

This position is responsible for the implementation of a strategic field program including grassroots organizing through voter identification, voter engagement, and community mobilization programs. The RFO directs community outreach, fieldwork, advocate cultivation and volunteer training and is responsible for recruiting and supporting advocates in targeted geographic areas.

**Total Rewards: **The full wage range for this position is $52,000 to $75,473 annually. At PPAO we’re proud to _calculate _a wage offer based on candidate experience, rather than _negotiate _an offer which leads to pay inequity. New hire wage placement typically does not exceed the midpoint of the wage range. You'll receive a comprehensive benefits package, including competitive salaries, health insurance, retirement plans, and more. Our benefits include:

  • Up to 4 weeks of annual paid time off (increases with tenure)
