New Majority is running a major outreach program in the lead up to our provincial election to increase youth participation in our democracy. We’ll be having face-to-face conversations with thousands of youth to get them out to vote!
This is a short term position; you will need to be available for at least 5 days of work between October 9th and October 19th.
Job Responsibilities
- Engage with youth to encourage them to vote
- Memorize and recite scripts to encourage voting in a professional, unbiased way
- Approach and engage with the public in a friendly and professional manner
- Be flexible to commute with your manager and team to different locations
- Attend training, with potential to lead trainings in the future
- Report to shifts in a timely manner, communicate clearly with your manager and maintain mutual respect with coworkers and your manager
- Meet quotas and goals set by the manager
You:
- Have strong communication skills and a good work ethic
- Are able to work within a team or independently, and value feedback
- Are willing and able to approach members of the public in a fast paced environment and cover a large territory each day
- Are able to remain non-partisan at all times while representing New Majority
- Can comfortably stand and walk outdoors for up to 8 hours a day
- Are comfortable traveling within your region to canvassing turf with your team and manager
By hiring people who are representative of local communities, we make sure we’re having genuine peer to peer conversations. New Majority’s goal is to reach young people who are often left out of the democratic conversation. That means no knowledge of or interest in politics is required - if you love talking to people, working on a team, and bringing the energy all fall long, you’ll be a great fit!
