Ed Hermes is a community activist, progressive leader, and the leading candidate for Phoenix City Council in district 4. Ed’s campaign is looking for an organized and detail-oriented individual with a passion for progressive politics to join his team as Finance Director. This position is through Election Day in November and could extend to a potential run‑off in mid‑March. The ideal candidate has experience in donor research, staffing call time, event planning, and is capable of supervising interns and volunteers.

Responsibilities:

• Implement the campaign’s fundraising plan and meet the set goals and timeline

• Plan and execute fundraising events

• Oversee intern support of call time and fundraising events

• Implement tracking and reporting to monitor progress toward meeting monthly and quarterly goals.

• Coordinate PAC and donor outreach

• Work with the candidate to recruit and maintain an aggressive finance committee

What We’re Looking For:

• A person who is highly organized, detail oriented, competitive, and results-driven. Some background in sales is helpful but not necessary

• Strong written and verbal communication skills

• Experience with campaign finance software, call time management, and event planning are a significant plus

• Willingness to work the sometimes irregular hours of political campaigns

• Based in the Phoenix area or willing to relocate
