Job Description:

Hiring Immediately - $24-27/hr + bonuses, Full-time & Part-time

Door-to-door Canvassing Team Leaders will engage with voters in a friendly and safe way to help them make a plan to vote by mail, early/absentee, or in-person on Election Day. In Wisconsin, a swing state that was decided by fewer than 23,000 votes in 2016, every vote matters!

We need strong leadership to guide us to a healthy and more equitable economic recovery. On November 3rd voters who want to make Wisconsin a healthier, more affordable place to live, work, and raise a family will have the opportunity to make their voices heard. For this reason, we are supporting candidates who are fighting to expand Medicare, support a living wage, reduce tax burdens on hard-working Wisconsinites, and protect them from health crises. Join us on this exciting campaign to help turn out like-minded voters.

We have experience doing this work during the COVID19 pandemic and have developed strict health and safety protocols that include a contactless approach to keep our staff and communities safe - we provide all of the training and Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) you will need!

We are hiring immediately, all positions run through early November with possibilities for advancement afterwards. Shifts are available 7 days/week with the possibility to work part-time or full-time.

Team Leader Responsibilities ($24-27/hr):

- Engage with the public in a friendly and professional manner

- Deliver a compelling script, and collect complete survey answers from voters

- Strictly follow the campaign's safety protocols, including the use of PPE and compliance with daily health and safety guidelines

- Manage a small group of canvassers out in the field by checking in with them periodically throughout the day and debriefing with them at the end of the day

- Ensure each canvasser has all of the materials they need to be safe and successful

-Assist directors with canvasser training and administrative work

The ideal candidate is:

- Charismatic, energetic, and passionate about economic fairness and fostering democracy

- Experienced with providing customer service; you should enjoy working with other people and be willing to speak with everyone

- Goal-oriented, determined, motivated and able to see the bigger picture

Prior canvassing experience is a plus but not required.

We offer driver bonuses, paid training, sick pay, and bonuses for data plans and friend referrals ( $200/referral ). All full-time staff have the option to opt into our company healthcare plan.
