Organiser at Compass

Compass is a growing organisation, with a network of local groups, and is looking for someone to help get these groups election-ready while strengthening our relationships across the progressive political landscape. This is a fantastic time to be working with a dynamic, progressive political organisation with big ambitions.

The Organiser will be responsible for powering Compass’ local groups, with a key focus on building our local groups ahead of the next election, and developing relationships across progressive political parties. They will play a key role in helping Compass strengthen its organising infrastructure while building productive relationships with partners outside Labour, including Liberal Democrats, Greens, and Welsh and Scottish nationalists, and with regional leaders working outside Westminster.

They will support work across the full range of Compass’ campaigns work, building powerful coalitions in key seats, growing the local groups infrastructure, developing cross-party relationships, and working on cutting through to key constituencies.

The role requires someone to use their excellent relationship building skills to work with diverse groups of people to build and grow teams around a shared vision and strategy.

The Organiser will work closely with Compass’ Deputy Director, as well as with the Executive Director, Campaigns Officer, Fundraising and Membership Manager, and Media and Press Officer, and alongside a broad network of partners, allies, associates and volunteers. We are looking for someone who is enthusiastic, relational, organised, committed and keen to learn. They should be comfortable working in a small, lively team and with groups and political traditions with different perspectives.
