GoodPower operates at the intersection of organizing, digital media, data science, smart tech and renewable energy advocacy - connecting everyday economic concerns, including energy costs, jobs, and local economic opportunity, to political action and public accountability. Their programs reach millions of people annually to cut costs, create jobs and accelerate renewable deployment by shaping beliefs, behaviors and ballot-box outcomes.

The organizer will be expected to spend significant time in the community developing local knowledge, identifying trusted messengers, understanding community concerns and building the relationships necessary to create lasting district-level power.

It is about building real relationships, moving people up the engagement ladder, fostering repeat volunteer participation, developing local leaders and translating community energy into measurable political pressure and electoral power.

Requirements Key Responsibilities District Field Organizing & Community Engagement Implement the district field plan for PA-10 in alignment with GoodPower's broader Pennsylvania strategy, including volunteer recruitment, voter engagement, community events, accountability actions and issue-based organizing. Identify community influencers, trusted messengers, and emerging leaders who can help expand GoodPower’s reach and effectiveness through their own relationships and networks. Build strong local knowledge of the district's communities, institutions, stakeholders, political dynamics and opportunities for grassroots engagement. Build an ongoing field presence across priority geographies in the district, including campuses, community events, high-traffic public spaces, town halls, neighborhood gatherings and other key locations where target constituencies are present. Conduct direct voter and community outreach through canvassing, tabling, phone calls, text outreach, relational organizing, 1:1 meetings and follow-up conversations. Identify the most effective places, moments and tactics to recruit supporters and move them into action. Represent GoodPower in the district with professionalism, discipline and strong message alignment. Volunteer Recruitment, Development & Leadership Recruit new volunteers through field outreach, events, relational organizing, digital-to-field follow-up and community-based engagement. Conduct welcome calls, onboarding conversations and follow-up systems to ensure new supporters are moved quickly into meaningful activity. Build a recurring volunteer base in PA-10, focusing on turning first-time participants into regular volunteers and emerging leaders. Develop volunteers through clear leadership pathways that move supporters from participation to ownership, responsibility and leadership. Success is measured not simply by recruiting volunteers, but by retaining them, increasing their level of engagement and developing them into leaders who can recruit and organize others. Support a district volunteer structure that reflects GoodPower's organizing model, including identification of potential team leaders, captains, event leads and trusted messengers. Train volunteers on canvassing, voter persuasion, event support, turnout tactics, storytelling and other organizing activities as assigned. Maintain consistent communication with volunteers to keep them engaged, activated and connected to the broader purpose of the work. Voter Contact & Electoral Engagement Execute district-level voter contact program(s) focused on persuasion, turnout, public education and political accountability. Support voter education, absentee and early vote outreach, GOTV and issue-based electoral engagement as required by campaign goals. Conduct high-quality voter contact that connects everyday economic concerns, such as energy bills, cost of living and job opportunities, to political choices and public accountability. Ensure that outreach is timely, well-targeted, properly tracked and aligned with evolving campaign priorities. Help test and refine field tactics that improve supporter recruitment, volunteer retention, leadership development, persuasion and turnout. Participate in rapid response organizing when political moments, district events, legislative developments or accountability opportunities arise. Local Storytelling, Accountability & Public Pressure Identify community members, supporters, and volunteers whose stories can illustrate the impact of rising costs, energy affordability challenges, economic pressures and the promise of renewable energy investment. Gather stories, quotes and local context that can support media work, digital content, public events and accountability campaigns. Help plan and execute district-level accountability tactics, such as town hall attendance, petition deliveries, public actions, story-collection events, press-support events and community visibility moments. Build productive relationships with local organizations, labor allies, community leaders, campus stakeholders and other trusted institutions where doing so advances district organizing goals. Ensure that field activity contributes to broader efforts to shape local narrative, raise issue salience and influence public officials. Data, Reporting & Performance Management Maintain clean, accurate and timely data entry in VAN and any other required organizing platforms. Track volunteer engagement, event attendance, follow-up status, voter contact results, leadership development and district activity consistently and accurately. Meet weekly and monthly performance goals related to voter contact, volunteer recruitment, volunteer retention, leadership development and event execution. Performance evaluation will emphasize supporter recruitment, volunteer retention, leadership development, quality of voter contact and overall contribution to district power-building goals, not simply activity volume. Prepare regular written reports on district activity, key learnings, challenges, emerging opportunities and recommendations for improvement. Use field data and field observations to help improve tactics, targeting, messaging and resource allocation. Participate in regular check-ins, planning meetings and performance review processes with district and state leadership. Physical & Work Requirements Ability to canvass, stand, walk, and engage in field activity for extended periods of time. Ability to lift and transport field materials, event supplies, clipboards, signage and tabling materials. Ability to work outdoors in varying weather conditions and travel frequently within the district. Ability to use digital systems for reporting, communication and data entry. Qualifications The ideal candidate is a strong field organizer who knows how to build relationships, move people to action and execute consistently in a fast-paced, metrics-driven environment. Required Qualifications At least 2 to 4 years of experience in community organizing, issue advocacy, labor organizing, electoral organizing, campus organizing or field campaigning. Demonstrated success in recruiting, motivating, and retaining volunteers or supporters. Experience conducting direct voter or community contact, including canvassing, phone banking, text banking, tabling or relational organizing. Strong follow-up habits and a clear understanding that organizing success depends on repetition, discipline and relationship-building. Ability to work evenings and weekends and travel regularly throughout the district. Comfort working toward goals, managing multiple priorities and adapting quickly in a changing political environment. Experience with VAN, EveryAction or similar voter/contact management systems. Must have a valid driver's license and reliable access to a personal vehicle for frequent travel throughout the district. Preferred Qualifications Strong familiarity with PA-10, Central Pennsylvania and regional political and community dynamics. Experience organizing young voters, infrequent voters, working-class communities or other constituencies traditionally underrepresented in civic participation. Experience developing volunteer leaders, team captains or event leads. Experience in issue campaigns connected to affordability, cost of living, energy, economic opportunity, workforce development or public accountability. Bilingual skills are a plus, though not required. Characteristics of a Strong Candidate Understands that successful organizing depends on disciplined follow-up and consistent relationship-building. Highly relational and comfortable talking with new people every day. Seeks out leaders, trusted messengers and community connectors rather than relying solely on direct recruitment. Self-directed and able to execute without constant supervision. Organized, responsive and detail-oriented. Motivated by measurable outcomes and continuous improvement. Calm under pressure and solutions-oriented. Grounded in the belief that local organizing can shape broader political outcomes. Excited to build real district infrastructure, not just complete isolated tasks.
