The positions we are hiring for will afford new staff the opportunity to impact the world around them by winning a monumental Presidential Election while learning invaluable skills. Our campaign staff is trained on all aspects of running a grassroots campaign - from recruiting, training, and managing staff/volunteers to overseeing the finances associated with running a local campaign office. Grassroots Campaigns' current and past clients include MoveOn.org, the Democratic National Committee, the ACLU, and the League of Conservation Voters.

In fall 2008 Field Organizers will help run one of the largest get-out-the-vote drives in the country.

Qualifications:
Sound communication and motivational skills, work ethic, and desire for political change are essential. Previous field organizing or canvass management experience is a plus, but not an absolute pre-requisite, although prior leadership experience is critical.
