About The Outreach Team

The Outreach Team is a premier national field firm. We partner with organizations working to solve some of the biggest problems facing our society -- from protecting human rights to fighting climate change -- and help them build the resources they need to make an impact. We are a people-powered enterprise; our campaigns are effective because we hire diverse teams of talented people, invest in our staff, and treat them well.  

We are hiring Canvassers to canvass in various locations across the country. Canvassers will talk to voters and educate them on the importance of voting in the upcoming election. Organizers will work in pairs to cover 13 different targeted geographic regions by going door-to-door to engage in conversations with the community. All Organizers are expected to work independently while reporting to the Lead Organizer in each state. 

Campaign Story: Now more than ever, it is imperative that people uplift their voices at the ballot box to vote for the change that they want to see in their communities. To ensure a high voter turnout later this year, we are working to mobilize voters across the country as part of the Reclaim Your Vote campaign. Our effort will engage voters across the country to increase voter turnout and empower our communities to make their voices heard to drive change where they live. We will connect with voters by going door-to-door and encouraging them to participate in the upcoming elections.

Mobilizing registered voters is a critical step to ensuring that elected officials reflect the diversity and wishes of the communities they serve. Too often, community members are invested in elections but lack the motivation or knowledge to vote. Our vote is our voice; it decides our future and shapes the world around us. In order to defend Democracy, demand diversity, and defeat poverty- we must vote. Through our efforts, we will empower thousands of voters across the country to cast their ballots and make their voices heard this election cycle.

We are hiring immediately. This position will run through November 5th 2024, with opportunities to extend.

Locations: Georgia  - Columbus, Atlanta North Carolina - Charlotte, Winston Salem Michigan -  Detroit, Grand Rapids, Battle Creek Pennsylvania - Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Shenango Valley, Wisconsin - Madison, Racine, Kenosha, Milwaukee. Strong preference for in-state candidates, short-term travel may be required.

Canvassers Responsibilities:

  • Each Canvasser is expected to canvass at least five days a week and hit a set of weekly production goals
  • Manage yourself as you will be educating voters
  • Work independently and hold self accountable for time management and goal-setting
  • Implement quality control and data security measures to ensure integrity of the work
  • Maintain a healthy and safe working environment 
  • Develop strategic plans to reach registered voters in assigned locations
  • Manage administrative duties, including reporting data, record keeping, and gathering of materials 
  • In the event that the program expands, Canvassers may grow into staff managers overseeing a larger full paid canvass operation
