ABOUT THE ROLE

The Deputy Director for Voter Protection leads the strategy and execution behind how we deliver voting information to participants across our programs. This work is centered on making sure every Voting Ambassador has the knowledge and confidence to serve as a steward for voting in their community. We're looking for someone ready to jump in, navigate complicated systems, and turn complex information into clear, actionable guidance that helps people overcome barriers, exercise their rights, and help the people they love do so too.

You'll be responsible for building out a repository of accurate, understandable, and actionable voting information which powers our vote plan builder and everything participants see in Rally. You'll also work closely with the content team to make sure every event script, FAQ, and participant resource that touches voting is clear, accurate, and actionable.

This is a role where you’ll build the system and then run it. Ahead of the program you'll build out our voter education content from the ground up. Once programs are running at scale, you shift into live operations: captaining the our rapid response Voter Protection channels, triaging questions in real time , deciding what we can answer and what gets escalated, and making sure everyone else fielding voting questions is trained and knows where to look to find the answer.

To succeed in this role, you don't have to be a lawyer and you don't have to know all the answers off the top of your head. The most important thing is that you're thoughtful, you will rigorously and creatively work to get accurate answers to voting questions, and that you will treat every vote and voter as if they matter, because you believe deeply that they do.

This is a full-time cycle role with an end date of November 15th, 2026.

DETAILS & COMPENSATION

Location: Remote

Compensation: $7,000/mo (August–November 15, 2026)

Reports to: Partnerships Director

Schedule: Full-time

Hours expectations:This role requires a flexible schedule, including some evenings and weekends, to accommodate recruitment and event volume. We anticipate a six day workweek in the final stretch, starting in October and running through Election Day.

JOB DUTIES

Own and maintain the voter education repository end to end. Build the initial content for every program state, manage the update workflow from research through fact-check and approval, and confirm changes sync correctly and display accurately on the participant side in Rally.
Build and own the voter education calendar: registration deadlines, mail ballot request and return dates, early vote windows, and Election Day, and our schedule and cadence for communicating about these things to voters. Serve as the source of truth on voting rules and process for both staff and participants. Track changes in law, procedure, and litigation that affect our program states, translate statute and administrative guidance into plain language people actually use, and know where the line sits between info we can provide and what needs to be escalated.
Review and approve any script, FAQ, saved reply, or piece of participant-facing content that touches voting before it goes out.
Vet and maintain the list of approved external resources staff can share without additional approval, such as Secretary of State sites, county election office pages, and the Election Protection hotline.
Create and oversee participant-facing voter education materials: FAQs, one-pagers, and content, in partnership with the events and content teams.
Act as voter protection captain in Slack during events, coordinating real-time voter education support, answering questions live, and owning the escalation path when a question can't be resolved in the moment.
Own the intake and escalation process for voter education questions from participants, prioritizing by urgency and resolving directly, including calling county election offices on a voter's behalf to make sure they get the most accurate answer.
Partner with the participant experience and partnerships teams to make sure voter education is built into event curriculum, inbox templates, and staff training.
Take on additional responsibilities as they arise, with the expectation that your day-to-day mix of work will shift as the program moves from build to peak season.

DESIRED QUALIFICATIONS

We don't expect any one person to bring everything below, and you certainly don't need to check every box to apply. If some of this describes you and the work excites you, we'd love to hear from you.

3–4 years of experience in digital organizing, voter protection, voter education, research, election administration, or voting rights advocacy.
Working knowledge of voting rights law and know-your-rights protocols, with the ability to read statute or official election guidance and translate it accurately into plain language.
Experience managing content in a CMS or similar tool, and comfort working in structured content systems, trackers, and databases.
Demonstrated judgment and precision — you're comfortable saying "I don't know yet, let me confirm," and you'd rather escalate than guess.
Strong plain-language writing skills, especially for audiences who may be voting for the first time or navigating an unfamiliar process.
Experience training, coaching, or serving as the escalation point for frontline staff or volunteers.
Comfortable serving as a go-to resource in Slack during live, fast-moving events, including making judgment calls under time pressure.
Existing relationships with or experience working alongside voter protection or state voting rights organizations are a plus.
Comfort building a function that doesn't exist yet — this work is currently unowned, and you'll be designing the systems as much as running them.
Spanish/English bilingual skills are a plus.
A strong commitment to non-partisan accuracy in voter education, and comfort holding that line firmly even when a program is moving fast.
Access to a computer, reliable internet, and a quiet workspace for live event support.
Availability to flex hours during high-volume recruitment and event periods, including some evenings and weekends as we approach November.
