About The Position

Americans for Prosperity (AFP) is the premier grassroots organization focused on advocating solutions to the country's greatest challenges. We recognize that tens of millions of Americans are frustrated with the extreme partisanship in government that keeps common-sense reforms from being passed, and instead seek to stand with policy leaders who are committed to finding a better way. As a Regional Field Manager (internally referred to as Grassroots Engagement Director) you will identify, recruit, and engage grassroots leaders in Texas, mobilize them to take action, and drive policy reforms that open opportunities for all. This is a Texas based position, and will require frequent travel across the state of Texas.
