Organizers coordinate and help drive the overall effort for change, often culminating in a vote or demonstration of majority support, utilizing organizing, research, communications, political, legal and data management tools. Organizers adapt to quickly changing circumstances and overcome obstacles. Successful Organizers demonstrate a high degree of confidence, self-organization and ability to work with and through teams.

Qualifications:

Good writing, listening, reporting and assessment skills important. Proven ability to discern priorities and meet competing deadlines. Use of technology, including databases. Experience should demonstrate an ability to manage projects and a drive to succeed. Must be able to drive and maintain a valid driver's license, auto insurance and reliable car. Travel required. Be able to drive long distances, and travel throughout the country to different states and cities. Travel and work away from home.
