WHO WE ARE:

ActBlue builds and maintains a powerful online fundraising platform for Democratic campaigns, progressive organizations, and nonprofits working to create a better future.

We’re a nonprofit organization, and our team has a big impact on the future of our country. Each and every one of us, from the political activists to the tech innovators to the customer service pros, is fully committed to our mission. We're excited to grow this team and get ready to take on even bigger challenges as we look toward 2020 and beyond.

We’re looking for someone with digital fundraising experience for this role.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills. You understand that details can make or break a successful project and always get the messaging right.
• Enthusiasm about building strong, ongoing relationships with campaigns and partners.
• Experience working independently. While you’ll be collaborating and strategizing as part of a team, lots of your day-to-day work and project management will be independently driven and organized.
• Flexibility. We are looking for someone who is adaptable, can manage a range of projects, and work with a wide variety of clients.
• Bonus points: Expertise in Google Sheets and an ability to collect, organize, and tidy datasets. Experience with tools and software products such as Relay, Hustle, NGP, Action Kit, or Blue State Digital is a plus.
