TeamCivX Field Associate

 

Position Overview

The Field Associate is responsible for executing comprehensive voter contact and field programs for client campaigns.

If a client needs a list pulled, a texting campaign set up, or a turf cut, you are the one responsible for completion. You will manage these requests through Airtable, fix issues before they become emergencies, and set up Zoom trainings to teach clients how to use the tools themselves.
