Santa Clara Stadium Campaign Seeking Experienced Field Staff
A committee formed in support of the Santa Clara stadium project is gearing up for a field campaign in advance of a citywide vote in June 2010.
The committee is currently seeking resumes from experienced campaign organizers for their field staff. Available positions include Campaign Manager and Field Organizer(s). Duties will include but not be limited to: coordinating field efforts; organizing volunteers; and managing a storefront campaign office in Santa Clara. Compensation will be what you'd expect, but this is an exciting opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a historic campaign that will ultimately make Santa Clara and the South Bay a better place to live, work, and play.
Interviews will be taking place in the coming weeks. Positions will begin in late December or early January.
Interested applicants should send resumes ASAP to Mia White at [email protected].
P.S. You do not need to be a resident of Santa Clara to apply, but it's certainly a bonus.
