WHAT YOU’VE GOT:

• Relationship Builder: Your friends (and their friends) turn to you to find out what’s happening at a local school board or in the community. You have a knack for inspiring other women to get involved by making it social and fun. Building a strong, engaged community of women around a common goal excites you, and you’re always looking for ways to keep that community empowered and connected.
• Connected: You understand the power of personal relationships and want to encourage others to find their voice and understand their ability to influence their networks.
• Socially Savvy: You like talking to individuals one-on-one as well as talking to groups – you are a people person. You enjoy communicating on social media and love using communication and digital tools.
• Technologically Savvy: You are excited to learn and use new technology for data and communication. Experience using Customer Relationship Management (CRM) is preferred. Previous experience with EveryAction CRM is highly preferred. You have a willingness to learn new systems and utilize technology to support working smarter, not harder.
• Inclusive: You work effectively with people of all ages, backgrounds, and perspectives. You know how to connect with women who may not consider themselves “political” or who may hold different views, finding common ground through shared values. You believe in building relationships based on trust, meeting people where they are, and helping them move forward toward shared goals.
• Flexible: You are comfortable navigating sometimes ambiguous work with competing priorities. You are nimble and can effectively shift focus when the need arises. You are able to work evening and weekend hours as needed for community events. 
• Organized & Productive: You have the ability to radically prioritize tasks and plan your days to meet goals. You thrive at managing projects remotely. 
• Growth Mindset: You have the ability to fail fast and win fast because you know that we learn as much from failure as we do success. You are not afraid to take risks, think outside the box, and give or receive feedback. You are willing to put yourself out there, whether it is speaking in public, creating videos, or talking to reporters. 

• Playfully Passionate: Your ability to get sh*t done is accompanied by your love for fun. You understand that we can do serious work without taking ourselves too seriously.
