About The Position

Turning Point Action is seeking a highly analytical, detail-oriented Political Administrator to support the strategic execution and continued expansion of the Scorecard project across key battleground states. This role sits at the intersection of political research, data integrity, and strategic influence, ensuring that our legislative analysis and endorsement efforts are grounded in accuracy, discipline, and long-term vision.
The Political Administrator will serve as a critical operational backbone for the Scorecard initiative — maintaining precise data on elected officials and key races, conducting in-depth legislative research, and supporting targeted endorsements that align with Turning Point Action’s mission and electoral strategy. This individual will help translate complex policy and voting records into clear internal analysis and externally facing materials that strengthen our political footprint.
This role requires a disciplined operator who thrives in structured environments, values clean systems, and understands that political influence depends on both backend precision and effective public messaging. The ideal candidate is comfortable working with large datasets, legislative documents, and digital platforms, and can execute administrative processes with consistency and independence.
Political experience is a bonus, not a prerequisite. What is essential is strategic thinking, technological competence, intellectual rigor, and extreme attention to detail. The successful candidate will demonstrate sound judgment, strong written communication skills, and the ability to manage sensitive political information with discretion and professionalism.

• Demonstrated confidentiality, professionalism, and discretion when handling sensitive political information
• Strategic thinking and the ability to connect research and data to broader organizational objectives
• A self-starter mentality with a growth mindset and strong desire to continuously learn and improve
• Clear alignment with Turning Point Action’s mission and values
