In particular, you’ll be responsible for:
- Categorizing volunteers and supporters through list creation for email campaigns, phone banking and various forms of offline organising
- Improving and maintaining online profiles of volunteers and supporters
- Developing a thorough understanding of NationBuilder and strategies on how it can be used to improve engagement with volunteers and supporters
