Senior Regional Organizer - GA/FL

Indivisible is a progressive grassroots movement of millions of activists across every state, fueled by a partnership between thousands of autonomous local Indivisible groups and a nationwide staff that offers strategic leadership, coordination, and support.

Our organizing model is the intersection of organizing around national priorities and building and supporting local groups. We believe that our work on our national priorities overall and at strategic movement moments builds local group power and our work building and supporting groups sets groups up for success on our national campaigns. This reinforcement builds a stronger and more powerful network.

Indivisible is seeking creative, experienced Organizers to organize, support, and grow local groups in their state or states, and develop new groups. This includes working with Indivisible group leaders and activists to take action on Indivisible’s national campaigns, developing and supporting group leadership, building strong state structures and communication streams, growing our volunteer base and building an activist pipeline, and executing strategic turf plans in collaboration with group leadership.

This role presents a unique opportunity for dynamic self-starters who excel in relationship building, project management, and leadership development - and who want to grapple with how to build a powerful social movement.

About the Indivisible Project

We’re building something new. We’re a progressive grassroots organization that began in the aftermath of Trump’s election. We’re working to build a democracy that reflects a broad, multiracial “we the people,” one that works for all of us and is sustained by all of us.

We’re changing what’s politically possible. Indivisible is part of the powerful progressive movement reaction to Trump, fighting the racist, misogynistic, plutocratic, and authoritarian agenda trumpeted by Trump and the GOP congress. Don’t take our word for it; Indivisible has been featured on the Rachel Maddow Show multiple times, as well as in the New York Times and in pretty much every other major news outlet in the country.

We’re building together. We’re building a new organization every day - a rare opportunity to model what we want to see in the world. We’re deeply committed to equity and building a diverse and inclusive organization.

We’re looking for you. If you want to fight for the soul of American democracy, there’s no better place to be than Indivisible. We’re looking for more team members who are passionate about building an inclusive democracy and committed to getting results. It’s an exciting, fulfilling place if you’re someone who wants to fight fiercely for the progressive world we want to have.

Every one of us on the national team is here because we believe this movement is the best way to retake and build progressive power in this country. Does that ring true for you? If so, great - throw your hat in the ring to join our team. Let’s start #winning together. For more information about Indivisible’s organizational principles, click here.
