    JOBS: New media directors needed for bold progressive Congressional campaigns

    POSITION SUMMARY:

    Do you have what it takes to run a new media program? Is your email writing clear, your testing kung fu strong, and your strategic mind sharp? And do you want to work to help elect bold, uncompromising, top-tier progressive Democratic Congressional candidates in 2012?

    The Progressive Change Campaign Committee (PCCC) is working with many campaigns this cycle to help them run the most efficient and effective new media programs out there, and we're building a collection of qualified people for our campaigns to hire to run these programs.

    The right candidates will be able to conceive and execute creative and strategic online campaigns in a fast-paced environment from start to finish -- everything from strategic planning, page creation, email writing, online advertising, blogging and outreach, and more -- as well as work hand-in-hand with other campaign departments like communications, finance, and field to help them use new media tools to make their operations more effective.


    RESPONSIBILITIES:

    Typical new media director responsibilities include:
    Operating within a campaign strategy to conceive and execute strategic, creative online programs that build an email list, swell grassroots support, recruit volunteers, raise small-dollar contributions online, garner media attention, and help your candidate win on election day
    Management of campaign website, including helping in the design and re-design process, updating content, and creating new pages
    Management of campaign email program, including list building, online fundraising, advocacy campaigns, email writing, effective testing, and analysis
    Management of campaign online advertising program, including working with outside consultants and creating effective campaigns to achieve benchmarks
    Management of online press outreach and social networking, including blogging, updating campaign social media assets, and blog/online press outreach
    Assisting other departments such as communications, field, and finance to help them be more effective using online tools

    QUALIFICATIONS:
    Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience
    Minimum 1 year prior online organizing experience, including strategic planning, email writing, and page creation
    Demonstrated experience and success with online campaigns
    Strong writing skills
    Proven creativity and initiative
    Knowledge of HTML, CSS, Salsa advocacy tools, ActBlue fundraising tools, and the Wordpress CMS
    Commitment to progressive values and drive to put bold progressive candidates in office
    Knowledge or experience in javascript/jQuery, Photoshop, advanced front-end web development, field operations, finance operations, communications operations, and electoral campaigns a plus
    Pay and benefits competitive. Must be ready to move and work day-to-day on the ground with the campaign, and work long, irregular hours as necessary.


    ABOUT THE PROGRESSIVE CHANGE CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE:

    Founded in January 2009, the Progressive Change Campaign Committee (PCCC) is an organization dedicated to helping better, bolder
    progressive candidates get elected. We provide candidates with the tools and knowledge to hit the ground running from Day One. Our staff includes senior organizers from top-tier congressional campaigns and progressive movement organizations. We’re a not-for-profit, one-stop shop for progressive candidates at the state and federal levels.
