This is an exciting new role overseeing the campaigning organisation and structure of the Party organisation across the County of Cumbria. The successful applicant will play a major part in developing collaboration between the local Conservative campaigning teams in the county.

This is a “rolling-up-the-sleeves”, do whatever needs to be done, constituency-based, campaigning role. Campaign Managers must be in a position to stay overnight away from home at times.

As a Campaign Manager you will be responsible for:
• Volunteer recruitment
• Managing volunteer phone banks and door-to-door canvassing
• Ensuring that candidates/MPs and councillors maintain a high profile
• Managing postal vote recruitment and Get Out The Vote campaigns
• Organising political meetings and events
