Job Description

Digital Organizer

Project 26 is the home for Pennsylvania youth who are ready to challenge the far-right's attack on our futures and build a Pennsylvania where Gen-Z can lead and thrive.

In 2025 alone, Trump has signed over 200 Executive Orders that have directly impacted millions of Americans and led to:

• The loss of basic human rights and the separation of families due to unjust ICE raids
• A massive increase in the wealth of the top 1% at the expense of basic healthcare and unbiased public media funding
• An economy where tariffs and inflation is so high millions of people are working multiple jobs and still can't pay their bills
• Widespread feelings of hopelessness and outrage amongst young voters

The outcome of Pennsylvania's 2026 elections will determine the balance of power in the House which will influence the make-up of Congress, as some of the most competitive congressional races will happen in our backyard. Which will allow us to create a congress that can hold the President accountable to representing the people, not billionaires.

In 2026, young Pennsylvanians will have the opportunity to elect a Governor, who will be instrumental in standing up to a government that has constantly overlooked the youth. At an estimated 793,555 registered voters across the state, Gen-Z has the power to determine the outcomes of these elections–but only if we get organized now.

Since 2023, P26 has built a team of strong youth advocates for Gen-Z, and has worked to create a community for us in politics, through peer-to-peer outreach, and we're building a scrappy and innovative team that will organize and inspire thousands of PA youth to vote in both the Primary and General Elections in 2026.

What Will You Do?

Our Digital Organizer will direct our in-house influencers cohort and work alongside our Campus Organizing team to:

• Hire a team of Digital Fellows who will:
• build our own social media following and engagement through working with professional social media & comms strategists.
• Film and edit short-form (up to 3 min) creative videos that will help mobilize students for Pennsylvania's 2026 elections.
• Film and edit short-ish form (up to 5 min) creative content to educate and mobilize Gen-Z on YouTube
• Create static content and designs that will engage and educate student voters.
• Build regional social media strategies and amplify key content to engage youth voters around PA's 2026 elections.
• Review content created by digital fellows and content plans for accuracy and compliance
• Manage social media accounts for project 26 on Instagram, Youtube, TikTok and Discord
• Develop platform-specific civic education content plan for 2026

This is an excellent opportunity to get an inside look at how campaigns work and gain pivotal experience in crafting content that emphasizes key messages, while providing critical resources for young voters.

Our Digital Organizers will start in Feb and run through November 13, 2026. Organizers will focus on managing fellow teams to mobilizing and engaging voters in their regions, and talking to youth about the importance of the upcoming elections. Content will be shared on our statewide Project 26 accounts including Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube, students' personal and/or influencer accounts, and region-specific social accounts.
