Elections Organizers - Los Angeles/Orange County/Riverside County

Change. This role will involve managing recruitment, negotiation, and onboarding of both distribution and endorsing partners for Change. You will report to our Partnerships Lead, Emily Jakobsen. As a key member of our Elections team, you’ll drive traffic to Change.

Change.

At a time when dissatisfaction with democracy globally is at an all-time high, we’re investing heavily in using AI to build an operating system for modern democracy. This includes our platform for giving people greater voice, a personalized voter guide for elections, and a new product which aims to bring people across the political spectrum together to identify shared solutions.

Change. Our goal for 2026 is bold: scale Change.

To realize this vision, we're building a team at the intersection of technology and civic engagement — bringing together top talent focused on giving citizens a direct voice, strengthening accountability, and building stronger, more resilient democracies.

Key Outcomes:

• Identify and build relationships with civic, advocacy, and community organizations across target markets, mostly cities
• Build and manage distribution partnerships with civic organizations, nonprofits, and other non-partisan entities (e.g., corporations) across the state
  • Map the local nonprofit landscape in each target market and prioritize organizations with existing voter engagement infrastructure
  • Provide orgs with simple, ready-to-use distribution assets — flyers, social copy, email blurbs, QR codes — so adoption requires minimal lift on their end
  • Coordinate distribution moments tied to their existing calendar: community events, service days, open enrollment periods, back-to-school nights, etc.
• Help recruit and fully manage campus representatives within your assigned markets with specific outreach goals
• Recruit organizations to contribute their endorsements and commentary to Change.
  • Navigate each organization's approval process — often multiple stakeholders, sometimes state or national sign-off
  • Get endorsement data into change.
• Track outreach results and pipeline status in a specific CRM
• Provide feedback to the Change.

The most important core competencies for the role are:

• An existing network of civic or advocacy contacts; ideally local/field-level, not just statewide leadership
• Comfortable initiating cold outreach and closing relationships independently; Outreach volume will determine success in this role
• Experience managing volunteers or interns
• Can work independently and adapt tactics without needing a rigid script
• AI experience needed: fluent and increasingly strategic
• Nice to have: bilingual (English and Spanish)

Target experience:

• At least two cycles of campaign or advocacy work, specifically in organizing, field, political, comms, or marketing (digital or otherwise)
