Job Description

The Democratic Governors Association (DGA) is searching for qualified finance staff candidates for our Democratic gubernatorial campaigns across the country.
If you are interested in a finance team position on a gubernatorial race, please submit your resume here. The DGA works very closely with the campaigns of Democratic candidates for Governor and intends to share qualified resumes with these campaigns as the campaigns’ positions become available.
These are generic job descriptions. The roles and structures of finance teams will vary depending on the campaign. Applications submitted through this link are only for positions working directly on gubernatorial campaigns — not for any positions with the DGA in Washington, DC.
This posting will be taken down when campaigns are no longer searching for candidates.
