WERE HIRING A DIRECT MAIL ACCOUNT ASSOCIATE Are you ready to be a part of our team? JVA Campaigns is an award-winning national political consulting and direct mail firm in need of a passionate, creative, and fun-loving Account Associate who can keep up with a fast-paced environment in a fast-growing firm. If youre just looking for a paycheck, then move on to other postings. If you like to leave your work at the office and have a strict 40-hour week with 9-to-5 hours, then this probably isn’t the job for you. BUT, if youre ready to join a team of awesome people, work hard, learn a lot, and beat the snot out of Republicans, then keep reading. What the heck is this job? Our clients span the spectrum of the progressive movement – candidates, labor unions, state parties, caucuses, advocacy organizations, and nonprofits. We are a fun group of people who like to work hard and play hard. As an Account Associate on our team, you will work side-by-side with senior staff to execute comprehensive mail campaigns – from developing the initial concept and strategy to ensuring on-time and accurate delivery to voters. Typical job duties include: • Developing direct mail concepts and copywriting • Liaising between graphic artists and clients to make revisions to direct mail pieces and arrive at a finished product • Preparing direct mail plans, budgets, and timelines • Conducting internet research and preparing research memos • Serving as a point of contact for clients • Generally doing whatever it takes to get the job done right At JVA Campaigns, we all chip in whenever necessary, which means from time to time you may also be asked to answer phones, run errands, and do other small administrative tasks. While this will be a small part of the job, it’s important that you are committed to being a strong team player and are always ready to lend a helping hand around the office. Still interested? You would probably be a great fit for this position if: • Your friends tease you for being excessively neat and/or a little anal retentive. • Back in high school or college, all your friends asked you to proofread their term papers. • You are a good writer and always impress your friends with your witty Tweets and Facebook posts. • You watch nasty political attack ads on TV and think, “Wimps... I would have hit harder.” • Asked which Pulp Fiction character is most like you, your immediate reply is, “the Wolf – Winston Wolfe.” • Family holidays usually end up with you arguing with your Sean Hannity-loving, Tea Party uncle. (Previous political experience is not required, but getting fired up about beating Republicans is!) • You have a Bachelor’s degree from an accredited college or university, preferably in Journalism, English, Communications, Marketing, Political Science, or related fields. • No one has ever told you to, “Slow your roll,” in reference to your conduct towards fellow employees. • You believe strong people don’t put others down – they pick them up. To apply: Send your resume, cover letter, and salary requirements to jobs@jvacampaigns. Extra credit will be awarded for creative submissions. YouTube and Vimeo self-interviews are welcome! A few more things: This is a full-time, seasonal position that will last through December 2014, with the possibility of becoming a permanent employee if you prove to be truly awesome. We provide healthcare the very first day of employment, a 401k retirement plan with company match and immediate vesting, election-season chair massages, and we have a cool office. If you’re ready to learn more, then please apply.
