Regional Campaign Director
The Missouri House Democrats are seeking experienced Regional Campaign Directors to run an aggressive, results-driven grassroots operation to help elect Democrats across Missouri — and to break the Republican supermajority in the Missouri House in 2026.
Missouri House districts contain approximately 38,000 residents, which means races are won through disciplined targeting, strong local organizing, and tight execution. Regional Campaign Directors will provide an essential on-the-ground presence and serve as the caucus’s primary point of support and accountability for a portfolio of priority campaigns.
This role is ideal for someone who can operate as a strategic partner to candidates, build a durable volunteer infrastructure, and ensure campaigns meet fundraising and field benchmarks.
Key Responsibilities
- Primary point of contact for assigned candidates and campaign teams, assisting with day-to-day strategy and execution across field, budgeting, staffing, scheduling, and communications.
- Implementing district-specific campaign plans that provide a clear path to victory, including persuasion, turnout, and volunteer development strategies.
- Holding candidates and campaign teams accountable to performance goals, including:
- Voter contact benchmarks (doors, phones, texts)
- Volunteer recruitment and leadership development
- Fundraising goals and call time discipline
- Providing fundraising support to campaigns, including call time planning, donor research coordination, event planning support, and helping candidates build sustainable finance routines.
- Managing structured campaign check-ins, including calls and meetings with candidates, staff, and caucus leadership, and producing clear written updates.
- Building and executing data-driven field programs, including:
- Precinct targeting and turf planning
- Volunteer recruitment pipelines
- Get Out the Vote (GOTV) preparation and execution
- Developing local leadership by recruiting and training volunteer team leaders and empowering volunteers to run meaningful parts of the program.
- Building and maintaining relationships with local stakeholders, including activists, community leaders, allied organizations, and party infrastructure.
- Coordinating with consultants/vendors as needed to support mail and digital execution, ensuring alignment with campaign goals and timelines.
- Ensuring campaigns remain operationally disciplined — timelines met, plans updated, and decisions made based on data and realities on the ground.
Required Qualifications
- At least one full cycle of paid campaign experience (two cycles preferred).
- Strong working knowledge of VAN/Vote Builder and basic targeting principles.
- Proficiency with Google Suite and campaign operations tools.
- Demonstrated ability to think critically, problem-solve quickly, and stay calm under pressure.

- Strong interpersonal skills and ability to work effectively with candidates, staff, volunteers, and stakeholders.
- Willingness to work long and irregular hours during peak cycle periods.
