About the Working Families Party

The Working Families Party (WFP) is the progressive party for the multiracial working class, fighting for a nation that works for the many, not the few. We recruit, train, and support transformational candidates up and down the ballot — and run them to win.

We believe that no matter where we come from or what our color, most of us want the same things. We want to earn enough to thrive, not just survive, and leave a better future for our kids. We want healthy food and clean water, safe neighborhoods and a safe world. We want to be free.

The Working Families Party is regular people coming together across our differences to make a better future for us all. We’re a multiracial party that fights for workers over bosses and people over the powerful. We want an America which realizes the promise – unrealized in our history – of freedom and equality for all.

The Southwest Campaign Services Manager coordinates our Southwest Campaign Services Program. Through our bulk purchasing and unique partnerships, this program offers access to do-it-yourself campaign tools as well as full service packages to run successful voter contact programs. The majority of this positions’ time will be spent working to deliver high-quality and cost-effective campaign services to internal WFP campaigns as well as external candidates and partner organizations. In addition to campaign services, this role assists our southwest state teams with digital communications. The person should have an entrepreneurial mind-set that is coupled with a deep commitment to racial, economic and environmental justice within an anti-oppression framework. Above all, we are looking for someone who is proactive with a strong work ethic, a never give up attitude, and a problem-solving approach to big challenges.
