Voter Contact Field Directors in the West Valley and South LA About The Outreach Team The Outreach Team is the national engine of campaigners and organizers building a fairer, cleaner, safer, and more peaceful world. Every campaign is our opportunity to make the world better. We show up because we believe in what's possible—politically, personally and collectively. We invest in people at every level—industry-leading pay/benefits, rigorous training and support, real paths to leadership. About the Campaign The Western States Regional Council of Carpenters represents over 60,000 carpenters. Los Angeles is the heart of our union. Training is key to our work. One of our 250 training centers is in Sylmar, just up the road from the district. We build nearly every kind of structure you see and we build careers, not just jobs. The Carpenter's Union knows what successful organizing and true leadership can accomplish and that's why they are working to turn out the vote for City Council candidates that share their values. Our campaign will be going door to door in CD-3 to help elect Barri Worth Girvan and CD-9 to help elect Jose Ugarte to the LA City Council on behalf of the Carpenter's Union for the fall midterm elections. Additionally, the Lead Campaign Director will manage a team of one or more Deputy Directors and will be responsible for building an office to scale from the ground up. The Lead Director position reports to the Project Director, and the Deputy Director position reports to the Lead Director. The Field Director will recruit, train, and manage a team of local canvassers to contact voters at the door. Directors are expected to train voter contact canvassers in the field while canvassing themselves to lead by example; they must also communicate long and short-term goals to staff and manage campaign reporting.
