North Carolina Deputy Field Organizer (Asheville):


THE ROLE: 

NextGen America is seeking passionate and hardworking candidates to join our youth organizing program in North Carolina, working to engage young people in electoral politics by registering thousands of young people to vote across the state. NextGen is committed to engaging young people in North Carolina in the political process and increasing participation among 18-35 year olds. This role will be focused on organizing in one of several regions in North Carolina as part of this ambitious effort.

In North Carolina, this effort will focus on organizing young people on campuses and the surrounding communities to bring progressive change to government through voting. Our work will engage young people in voter registration efforts, volunteer recruitment, and pledging young people to vote. Organizers need to be comfortable and confident in: mobilizing their own community, growing their network to include new volunteers to train, and motivating community leaders to help register and mobilize their own networks. Organizers are directly responsible for managing a team of volunteers in their region to hit weekly and phase metric goals. 


This role reports to the Regional Organizing Director.

  • General availability to work weekends
  • A high capacity work schedule during designated events (For example: campus welcome weeks, the weeks leading up to voter registration deadlines) consisting of approximately 3-5 hours per day, 4 days per week


ABOUT YOU:

  • Ability to work independently and remotely
  • Effective communicator in 1:1, group, or public environments
  • Driven by a strong work ethic
  • Excellent oral and written communication skills
