Cuomo for NYC – Manhattan, NY
Compensation: $7,000-$9,000 per month
Start Date / End Date: 08/15/2025 - 11/05/2025

Position Summary:

The Office and Team Manager for Cuomo for NYC will be the heart and soul of the campaign operation. This person will hire and oversee almost all members of the team, open a campaign office and make it run beautifully. Most important, the office and team manager will set and enforce a culture of teamwork, camaraderie, fun, excellence, hard work, iteration, and determination. 

The office and team manager will be responsible for the purchasing, monitoring, and dissemination of campaign materials such as signs, palm cards, and tee shirts. Office supplies, subscriptions, and some finance management will also fall under this person’s purview.

Working closely with campaign lawyers and treasurer, the office and team manager will oversee all of the campaign’s contracts, ensuring appropriate review and filing, as well as tracking the obligations of the parties to contracts, ensuring that expectations are met. (An example of this would be a contract with a consulting company that requires deliverables in both directions to be tracked.)
