About the Job

MARKETING & FUNDRAISING COORDINATOR Are you a high-energy person who digs the details almost as much as helping a busy team exceed goals and deadlines? We're seeking a mission-driven person to "be the glue" for our marketing and fundraising efforts. You'll be in communication with our donors, making sure their questions are answered, helping them participate in fundraising events and mailing those coveted "Pants on Fire" stickers to our PolitiFact members. You'll also help us by pulling reports, updating dashboards and generally watching out to make sure everything that's supposed to happen is happening - all while providing a world-class experience for our donors, supporters and customers (internal and external). Qualified candidates will bring at least three years of solid coordinator experience, be extremely organized and have an ability to thrive in a fast-paced, deadline-oriented environment. You're proficient in Google (Gmail, Docs, Sheets, Slides) and Microsoft Office and technically proficient enough to work in our project management (Asana), customer management (Salesforce), email marketing (MailChimp) and publishing software (WordPress). Poynter is a nonprofit, non-partisan organization that exists to elevate journalism and its service to democracy. We teach journalists, educators, students and citizens across America and around the globe. We're the fact-checking capital of the world home of the International Fact-Checking Network, MediaWise and PolitiFact. This position is located in St. Petersburg, Florida. Relocation assistance is not available for this position. At the moment, we're working remotely mostly via Zoom, Google Meet, Slack and Asana. Someday, we'll be back at the office in some way, shape or form.
