Job Details
Key Responsibilities:
• Contribute to the campaign plan to win the 2026 local elections in Merton. Own the delivery and execution of key parts of that plan.
• You will help craft powerful material to inspire voters, donors and supporters. However, you don’t need extensive graphic design experience – as you will work from templates and we can train you up to design leaflets.
• You will co-ordinate the printing and distribution of campaign leaflets.
• You will help plan and manage a rigorous schedule of campaign activity to get the message out to voters across Merton and Wimbledon.
• You will help organise training to arm our volunteers with the skills, tips and tricks they need to make an impact when meeting voters on the doorsteps.
• You will work with the rest of the campaign team to recruit talented and committed new activists.
• You will understand how a data driven campaign works and is organised.
• You will support the team with fundraising activities and management of donors.
Key things we’re after from you:
You know how to get things done:
• Deadlines matter, making sure team members know what tasks they need to do.
• You have experience of managing a project with lots of strands and maintaining budgets.
• You are good at setting priorities and sticking to them.
• You have good organisational and stakeholder management skills.
You can fire up passionate volunteers:
• You have the enthusiasm and empathy to motivate our team of activists.
• You might have experience recruiting, managing, or training volunteers.
You’re a wordsmith with an eye for design:
• You can write copy that wins hearts and minds.
• With sharp attention to detail, you know the difference between a good leaflet and a bad one.
• A bonus would be experience using desktop publishing tools.
You can multitask with ease:
• You are organised enough to manage lots of simultaneous demands from volunteers, the rest of the campaign team and the candidate without losing your calm and patience.
• Previous experience organising events would be a bonus.
You care enough to get stuck right in:
• You are invested in our mission to drive positive change locally and nationally.
• You are not afraid to roll up your sleeves to get the job done.
