What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Digital Strategist position at Grassroots Analytics?
Grassroots Analytics' mission is to provide innovative data solutions to amplify forward-thinking voices, causes, and people.
Grassroots Analytics ("GA") maintains a detailed database on more than 20 million active American donors, including data on net worth, ideological preferences, political donation history, non-profit donation history, demographics, and contact information.
In GA's Digital Department, our team of digital experts works to democratize fundraising and set new standards for innovation. We can – and do – try something new every day, thanks to the power and scale of our database. In essence, we exist to jumpstart programs whose biggest barrier to success is the status quo.
Job Description
We're seeking a Senior Digital Strategist with the flexibility, creativity, and confidence of experience to deliver for both Peer to Peer texting clients and full-scale programs in our experimental Digital Lab.
To be clear, this role is focused on the power of text and email fundraising, and we're seeking someone passionate about those. While social media, brand marketing, advocacy, and programming may provide transferable skills, they will not feature in the Senior Digital Strategist's daily tasks.
Our ideal candidate will bring a wealth of fundraising copywriting experience and excellence, including a knack for teaching best practices. They will pitch, create, send, and analyze daily fundraising content for a range of Democratic and progressive clients; collaborate with our direct mail, nonprofit, and tech teams; and do it all with a commitment to curiosity and innovation.
This is a position designed for growth, both within the core role and as a member of a dynamic, expanding team. If you lean left, want to flip Congress and state houses (and school boards, and…!) blue, and care about how we raise the money to make those wins possible, we want to meet you!
Responsibilities
We offer 33 days of PTO two days for every year with GA; 11 federal holidays; and full office closure between Christmas and New Years. Additional benefits include healthcare, dental, and vision insurance; paid parental leave; mental health and sick days; 401K with employer match; profit sharing; and more.
Applicants should provide a resume and a one-page cover letter that describes the unique value they are prepared to bring to this role.
Grassroots Analytics is an equal opportunity employer, committed to providing a diverse, inclusive, and welcoming environment where everyone is empowered to do their best work. Grassroots Analytics does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, gender, gender expression, age, national origin, disability, marital status, sexual orientation, or military status.
