Email Marketer & Copywriter @ 4degre.es

You will be responsible for writing persuasive emails and fundraising emails, loading copy into error-free html email templates, setting up segments and targets, and sending blast emails. You will be accountable to hit fundraising targets.

We think political email has become stale, and we especially do not like gimmicky spam. Your copy should fit the personality and voice of the client. You will be responsible for multiple clients. You should have a pulse on current events and strive to be proactive not reactive. This position requires odd hours and flexibility.

Politics is a fast-paced environment, and we are looking for passionate staff who want to create change or make a difference. 4degre.es maintains an unstructured office environment (remote OK) with no set office hours because political client demands can pop up at any time and we expect senior staff to pitch in when timely client needs arise. Organized planners & staff with experience working in campaigns or other rapid response environments tend to perform better in this sometimes high stress environment. Despite the sometimes unpredictable nature of political campaigns, our work is seasonal and offers flexible work hours.

Required Skills

  • A self-starter with impeccable attention to detail and proofreading skills
  • Excellent time management & organizational skills to manage multiple accounts in a fast-paced election
