Planned Parenthood Votes! Field Directors
The Outreach Team is a field firm specializing in face-to-face canvassing operations. We partner with the nation's leading progressive groups and organizations to impact critical elections.
We are currently seeking Field Directors to join us on an important and exciting campaign to help Planned Parenthood Votes! South Atlantic rally the vote for candidates who will protect our right to make our own decisions and keep the government out of our health care. We are hiring for multiple Lead Director and Deputy Director positions in Charlotte, Raleigh, and Wilmington.
North Carolina’s sweeping abortion ban and restrictions on reproductive health care are harming real people. Bans on any health care put politics above people and put our futures on the line.
We’re working to ensure that everyone can live, thrive, and raise families in healthy communities. When people can make decisions about their own reproductive health care, they have more control over their economic security, their health and well-being, and can build the future they see for themselves.
Politicians have no business interfering with private health care decisions. We’re fighting to stop this government intrusion and put the power back in the hands of the people.
Field Directors will recruit, train, and manage a team of local canvassers to talk to voters about voting in the November election. Additionally, the Lead Campaign Director will manage a team of three or more Deputy Directors, and will be responsible for building an office to scale from the ground up. This position reports to the Project Director.
COVID-19 has altered the political landscape, but one thing remains the same - we will need to have in-person conversations with people to get out the vote. Thankfully, we can do this in a way that is low risk. We will provide PPE and substantial health and safety training, we will work outside, and we will all follow the canvassing protocols that will allow us to do this critical work while keeping ourselves and everyone else in our communities safe.
We are hiring immediately. This position can run through November 5th, 2024, with opportunities to extend.
Locations: Asheville, Durham, Charlotte, Raleigh, and Wilmington. Strong preference for in-state candidates, short-term travel may be required.
