Field Manager, Chicago, Working America
Scott A Seeborg
We're serious about building power. Develop new strategies to build the labor movement, lead a team of organizers, and mobilize working families to exercise power in the community as well as in the workplace.
Field Managers start at $36,156 a year, including health insurance, paid vacation and sick leave.
Working America organizes crucial issue and electoral campaigns at the national, state and municipal level on behalf of working families. Our highly successful outreach models have raised the minimum wage in Albuquerque, won a much needed earned sick day law for workers in Portland, OR and a new law preventing wage theft in Houston, TX was passed unanimously by mobilizing members to pressure city council (to name a few).
There is no better time to join Working America. When there is strength in numbers we build movements and WIN on issues.
We are looking for natural leaders to supervise and train canvass staff. Each night, Field Managers lead a canvass team to go door-to-door to learn about the needs of working people and talk with them about our common goals- good jobs and a just economy.
Field Managers gain experience in managing logistics, maintaining data systems, and developing new leaders.
Candidates should possess strong leadership and communication skills, a commitment to working-class issues, and demonstrate the ability to connect with our members. Because our work is expanding, geographically flexible individuals are highly preferred.
