Who you are

- 3 years of experience in a customer success/account management role or equivalent experience working in political campaigns/parties, nonprofits, or advocacy organizations
- Experience using NationBuilder or comparable softwares is a major plus, but not required
- Exceptional verbal & written communication skills in English; you should be comfortable communicating frequently on the phone, over video call, and in written form

- Passion for technology and familiarity with key concepts of online engagement
- We are fiercely nonpartisan; you must be open to working with political parties, campaigns, and organizations from all backgrounds and with diverse missions
- Bring your whole self to work: a positive, constructive and open attitude is welcomed and expected, but we also don’t want people who put on a “work face.” You should feel free to be yourself and help the company grow by doing so

Our take
Communities of people can have an enormous impact on the success of charities, political campaigns, and activism movements, but organizing them can be difficult. Whilst social network platforms are generally the solution to this, these are generally not designed for such purposes, presenting a demand for a platform specifically designed for community project management.
NationBuilder provides a community project management platform with the aim to empower the communities behind nonprofits, social movements, and political campaigns to drive change. The software consists of an integrated system of tools for purposes such as building websites that track community engagement, fundraising and financial growth, personalized email and SMS services, and dynamic databasing of supporters.
Whilst NationBuilder’s software and its features resemble many other pre-existing project management platforms, it has taken a unique stance by specifically tackling the gap in the market around community management. By providing an integrated platform of tools for such projects, the company claims that they can help grow revenues for community projects which will ultimately speed up change.
