Description
A Rhode Island Democrat running for Attorney General is hiring a Campaign Manager to help build and run the campaign through the September 2026 primary. This is a ground-floor opportunity to play a central role in a competitive statewide race. We're looking for someone with at least one cycle of campaign experience who is ready to take the next step and grow into a leadership role. All who are interested should submit a resume and two relevant writing samples.
Position Summary
We're building a team for a competitive four-way Democratic primary for Attorney General, and the Campaign Manager will be at the center of it. This person will serve as the campaign's day-to-day operational lead — running the fundraising program, managing the candidate's schedule, coordinating with consultants, and keeping the campaign organized and on track.
The right candidate is someone who has worked on a campaign before — maybe in field, finance, or operations — and is ready to own more responsibility. You'll work directly with the candidate and senior advisors in a collaborative, supportive environment where your ideas and initiative will matter. If you've been looking for the chance to step up and run things, this is it.
How to Apply
Please submit your resume and two relevant writing samples to the Google Forms link in the posting. Note: You will need to sign in to Google to submit. Resumes will be reviewed on a rolling basis and selected candidates will be contacted for an interview.

• Comfort on the phone and a genuine ability to build relationships with people
• Organizational skills to manage multiple priorities and keep the trains running
