Digital Platforms and Content Manager

About the Working Families Party

The Working Families Party (WFP) is the progressive party for the multiracial working class, fighting for a nation that works for the many, not the few. We recruit, train, and support transformational candidates up and down the ballot — and run them to win.  

We believe that no matter where we come from or what our color, most of us want the same things. We want to earn enough to thrive, not just survive, and leave a better future for our kids. We want healthy food and clean water, safe neighborhoods and a safe world. We want to be free.

The Working Families Party is regular people coming together across our differences to make a better future for us all. We’re a multiracial party that fights for workers over bosses and people over the powerful. We want an America which realizes the promise – unrealized in our history – of freedom and equality for all.

ABOUT THIS ROLE

The Digital Platforms and Content Manager will oversee all of California WFP's public-facing digital communications and design strategy during an exciting period of growth for our California chapter. This includes managing CA WFP’s social media accounts, website, and developing digital and creative content to engage our membership, partners, and candidates. 

The ideal candidate is passionate about cultivating and growing online communities, understands the role of visual design in movements, and knows what it takes to break through online noise in 2026.  

*Applicants must be based in California (Bay area, Central Valley, Los Angeles, or San Diego preferred). While this is a remote role, it will require occasional travel within the state of California for event coverage.
