Digital Production Assistant

WHO WE ARE:

At ActBlue, we build and run a powerful, modern online fundraising platform for Democratic campaigns, progressive organizations, and nonprofits working to create a better future. We’re a nonprofit organization ourselves, and we work to make it really easy for these groups to run grassroots fundraising programs. The result? We're putting power back in the hands of small-dollar donors.

Since 2004, campaigns and organizations across the country have raised over $2 billion using our tools, with a current average contribution size of $30. Thousands of groups from presidential candidates to environmental organizations to local school board members count on our fundraising tools to fuel their organizing work.

We’re a small (but growing!) team that has a big impact on the future of our country. Each and every one of us is fully committed to our mission and we are looking for new team members who match our passion and are ready to dive in!

We are looking for a Digital Production Assistant to help us manage the production of our email program and ensure accurate implementation of our team’s content across ActBlue’s platforms. This is an entry level position, and we’re ready to teach you what you need to know, but you should have a strong interest in using data and design to communicate effectively, be curious about data and excited to dive into a database to answer questions, and be ready to learn several new skills quickly.

• Interested in expanding your technical knowledge: This position will involve working with various coding languages and programs such as SQL, HTML, CSS, and Adobe Creative Cloud, as well as some statistics skills. We’re looking to bring in someone with basic knowledge of one or more of these who is ready to learn more! Extra points for SQL skills.
• Organized: We work on many different types of projects simultaneously. We need someone who can juggle tasks from various projects without losing sight of important details and deadlines.
• A team player: Our team is incredibly collaborative and it will be important for the person in this role to be able to coordinate well with the people around them. You will need strong interpersonal communication skills.
