Civic Nation seeks a Talent & Entertainment Coordinator to support the day-to-day operations of WWAV’s Entertainment & Talent team. The successful candidate will be instrumental in managing day-to-day communications - both internally among Civic Nation colleagues and externally to partners in the Entertainment, Sports and Talent industries - managing internal reporting and tracking infrastructure that will help us tell the stories of our successes, and providing additional team capacity where needed. This person will lead and manage projects - both independently and with a team - that effectively reach our target audience and support When We All Vote’s mission to change the culture around voting.
OVERVIEW OF WHEN WE ALL VOTE
When We All Vote , a nonpartisan initiative of Civic Nation, is on a mission to change the culture around voting and to increase participation in each and every election by helping to close the race and age gap. Created by Michelle Obama, When We All Vote brings together individuals, institutions, brands, and organizations to advance civic education and awareness by empowering all eligible voters to take action not just through voting but by advocating for their rights.
In 2020, When We All Vote ran a robust digital organizing campaign through content, messaging, and events reaching more than 100 million people in an effort to educate them about the voting process, and get them registered and ready to vote. The organization led in voter education, registration, and volunteer engagement, and as a result, 512,000 people started or completed the voter registration process, and nearly 500 media, corporate, and nonprofit partners joined its efforts.
Michelle Obama launched When We All Vote in 2018 and is joined in this effort by fellow Co-Chairs Tom Hanks, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Janelle Monáe, Chris Paul, Selena Gomez, Liza Koshy, Megan Rapinoe, Shonda Rhimes, Tracee Ellis Ross, Kerry Washington, and Rita Wilson.
