County Council Campaign Manager
10-15 hours per week
Now-Late August
Internship
Position Description:
The Pierce County Council is held by a slim 5-4 Republican
majority. Carolyn Edmonds (D) is running
to unseat a Republican incumbent and flip the balance.
The campaign manager will work directly with Carolyn while
under the supervision of the campaign consultant. The intern’s primary job is to help the
candidate maximize their time spent with voters and in fundraising. Responsibilities will include tracking and
organizing fundraising, event logistics, managing volunteers, data entry,
doorbelling and phonebanking. A reliable
form of transportation may be necessary depending on the campaign and intern’s
location. Some campaign related
experience is preferred – volunteer experience is fine – but more importantly,
we’re looking for someone with energy and a passion for getting involved in
local politics.
After August, this will be a paid position. Graduating seniors interested in paid
campaign work in the fall should consider applying and will be given first
preference for that position.
