This Director should be energetic, entrepreneurial, and ready to grow the team's digital campaign skills while helping the fight to end gun violence in this country.

This is a full-time position with Everytown for Gun Safety Action Fund, based in our New York City or Washington, D.C. office and following a hybrid work schedule.

SCOPE OF WORK

The Director of Email and SMS Campaigns will lead Everytown's email and SMS campaign strategy, overseeing a team of digital campaigners and working across the organization to strengthen supporter engagement. The Director will help ensure state and national campaigns are strategic, coordinated, and responsive to the needs of the organization and the movement.

WE TRUST YOU TO
  • Oversee a team of digital campaigners who manage all regional and national email and SMS campaigns.
    • Through regular check-ins and coaching, grow direct reports' digital strategy, project management, people management, and communication skills.
    • Lead a weekly team meeting where direct reports collaborate on campaign strategy, messaging, and team process projects.
    • Based on team needs, provide solutions-oriented feedback to organizational leaders on how to improve campaign planning and other internal processes.
  • Monitor and report out on big-picture email and SMS campaign performance, recommending optimizations consistently.
  • Collaborate with leadership of other departments to develop ambitious goals and creative strategies for engagement and supporter-centric campaigns.
    • Lead cross-department coordination with Support Growth and Cultivation, including identifying opportunities for increased collaboration.

  • Act in a leadership role in partnering with the Data and Field teams to create integrated user journeys and segmentation strategies.
  • Leverage lapsed data to identify ways to grow our movement and re-engage supporters.
  • Coordinate the creation and dissemination of digital content (websites, email, online actions, videos, social and multimedia content) for priority campaigns and mobilizations.
  • Bring flexibility and responsiveness to urgent, time-sensitive moments; this role will occasionally require work outside of standard hours to support rapid-response needs.

YOU WILL HAVE
