Assistant to the CEO

Movement Labs is a movement incubator and the leading peer-to-peer text political consultancy supporting progressives and grassroots activists nationwide. Our clients span both establishment and movement efforts, from senior Democratic Congressional leadership to Black Lives Matter.

At Movement Labs, our mission is to build a country that works for everyone. We combine data, technology and experimental methods with an army of passionate volunteers to build power. We use peer-to-peer texting to help grassroots organizing, recruit candidates to run for office, and help those candidates win. We look for opportunities to work in red and rural areas, and with communities that have too often been ignored.

This job is for you if you’re quick, confident, and coachable. You’re filled with a burning desire to stop fascism. You love the idea of being a crucial team-member at Movement Labs, directing the attention of senior leadership. You are obsessively organized and during fast-paced meetings quickly take down notes on action items and decisions, flagging when more specificity is needed. You’re a fast study with new material and comfortable with Excel and Powerpoint. You’re efficient and happy getting any task done. You’re unrelentingly positive while being willing to hold those around you accountable for agreements.

Scheduling is strategy, so you’ll help organize the CEO’s time – detailing goals, to-do’s, scheduling and other administrative work as needed. You’ll support potential client outreach by reaching out to high level leaders of progressive organizations. You’ll drive special projects forward and help our interns to execute research assignments.
