Are you passionate about economic fairness and social justice? Do you want to improve the lives of working people and strengthen the labor movement?

We are the largest federation of labor unions in the United States, and our team of dynamic professionals is dedicated to growing worker power and ensuring every working person has a voice on the job. When you work at the AFL-CIO, you’re more than just an individual employee—you’re helping to lead a movement with a proud history and a bright future ahead.

The Analyst and Visualization Specialist will support critical reporting and polling work that helps inform and drive the Federation's programs. This position will help transform quantitative and qualitative analysis into compelling visuals, and build and support reporting dashboards for the political program, organizing work, and other organizational infrastructure needs. This position will also work with analytics team members and engineers to produce the required data in the right shape and format for dashboards to work with. It will also help coordinate a national polling plan, as well as support ongoing research projects inside of the analytics team.

The Data, Analytics & Infrastructure Resource Department’s goal is to generate lasting power for the labor movement, by building the Federation's programmatic tools, web development, data systems, and analytics capacity. This team serves a broad range of clients across the labor movement--from other AFL-CIO departments to AFL-CIO affiliates, and state and local labor bodies. Through investment in central infrastructure, training, and direct service work, the department aims to empower its partners to run stronger and more cost-effective political and legislative mobilization, digital, and organizing campaigns.
