Position OverviewSeed the Vote (STV) seeks to hire several people to fill multiple positions for our Financial and Logistics Support Team (Support Team) within STV’s Operations Department. These positions will work closely with the Organizing, Field, and Operations Teams to help manage the logistics and financial support needs for volunteers who will be canvassing for Seed the Vote in the 2026 election season across the country.
They will help implement effective, efficient, and scalable systems that facilitate the transportation, lodging, and tracking of our volunteer canvassers’ trip details. These positions require excellent communication, written and verbal, with STV staff, volunteers, and members of our partner organizations.
All positions will have the same core set of responsibilities but be assigned to distinct roles to ensure coverage of all activities on evenings and weekends. The Support Team Lead will have a higher level of oversight responsibility.
Support Team Associate (2-6 positions)- 20 hours with potential increase to full time. Some positions will start in August, and some in September.
- Team coverage for weekends and evenings (5-8PM Pacific Time) will be necessary; 2 or more positions will be scheduled specifically for these times. Scheduling for other positions will be flexible.

- Follow-up with individual volunteer canvassers to support the logistics of their canvassing trip (flights, rental cars, lodging), assess financial support according to protocols, and communicate reimbursement procedures.

- 20 hours starting in August with potential increase up to full time in September or October as needed.
- Weekend availability required.
- This position is distinguished from the Associate positions by performing work at a higher level of independence and responsibility, providing support to team manager with leading team spaces and oversight of Associates and super volunteers during weekend shifts, having higher level insight into operational needs, escalating urgent issues as needed, and making decisions to ensure volunteer logistics are handled efficiently.
- Identify vendors in canvassing locations as needed, develop strong relationships, and coordinate STV needs: e.g. hotels, meeting venues, transportation, etc.
