About The Outreach Team
The Outreach Team is a leader in providing innovative campaign services to nonprofits and political campaigns. Specializing in managing large-scale voter contact initiatives, we are committed to fostering civic engagement and promoting positive change. This year, we are excited to expand our reach by running numerous voter contact canvass offices across the country, aiming to make significant impacts in key areas.
This is a full-time position for an experienced campaigner with an eye for details and a passion for behind-the-scenes work and helping offices succeed when they are in a bind. At The Outreach Team, the Roving Admin Director is expected to collaborate closely with the Project Directors and various field office Director Teams to cover for administrative directors when they need to be out of the office for more than a day at a time. You will ‘parachute in’ to various offices across the country as needed to maintain and drive the use of administrative systems and reports. You will play an integral role in ensuring our canvassing operations run smoothly and efficiently, achieving ambitious growth targets and maximizing our on-ground impact.
The position is primarily on the road, but you will have some time to be remote from your home base when you are in between field assignments. You should expect to work 40-60 hours per week, depending on how close to elections or other deadlines your project is. We cover the cost of travel and housing when you are out on assignments.
