It's a legit question. Everyone is trying to hire "digital" staff. But what do they mean? If you've read 10 "digital" job descriptions today, you've read 10 different definitions of digital.
Bottom line: This job is about using any and every tool in the digital arsenal to win state & local ballot initiatives that advance economic justice. The Fairness Project is a growing, winning team, and this is a big role there.
If you have significant digital experience, here are a few reasons you should apply:
- To us, "digital" = creativity. There are a thousand jobs you could take to write fundraising emails or manage member acquisition. But at TFP, we need you to bring creative ideas for deploying a huge range of online tools in service of ballot initiative campaigns around the country. (See below for our strategy.) If you want to experiment and break new ground, talk to us.
- We do our politics outside DC. If you sit in that Venn diagram of "cares about progressive change" and "thinks Congress is super dysfunctional," you've found your people. We make real political change -- big change -- using progressive ballot initiatives. It's smart, it flies under the radar, and it delivers wins like healthcare to 830,000 people, $15.6 billion into working families' pockets, and won economic gains for 15 million Americans.
- You'll be a top leader. This role reports directly to the Executive Director, and will have at least two staff and multiple contractors underneath you. You'll be at the strategy table with top talent around the country, making tough calls on pivotal programs.
- If you like to win, you'll like it here. We're 18 wins and one loss, and poised to rack up more wins on Nov 3.
- We actually enjoy our work. TFP is barely five years old, but in that time we've built a fun, open, motivated team that puts impact above ego and gets s*** done. Make no mistake, the work can be hard. But when you genuinely like each other, and when you win victory after victory together, it's hard not to enjoy your job.
- You're tired of looking for a new gig every cycle. TFP is always on -- running campaigns while building the next set of them. You won't need to move to a new state, look for a new job the second Wednesday in November, or go work for a firm.
LOCATION: TFP is headquartered in DC, but remote candidates are very welcome.
SALARY & BENEFITS: $110,000-125,000, negotiable within that range. TFP offers fully paid health, dental, and vision and a generous paid time off program.
The Fairness Project is committed to the values of diversity, equity, and inclusion. Our campaign work reflects these values that fight racial, gender, sexual, and economic inequality. Internally, we seek to build and empower a diverse staff and leadership team. People of color, people with disabilities, women, and LGBT candidates are strongly encouraged to apply. The Fairness Project is an Equal Opportunity Employer without regard to race, color, religion, gender or gender identity, pregnancy, sexual orientation, age, national origin, marital status, disability, veteran status, or any other protected characteristic as established under law.
