About the Working Families Party The Working Families Party (WFP) is the progressive party for the multiracial working class, fighting for a nation that works for the many, not the few. We recruit, train, and support transformational candidates up and down the ballot — and run them to win. We believe that no matter where we come from or what our color, most of us want the same things. We want to earn enough to thrive, not just survive, and leave a better future for our kids. We want healthy food and clean water, safe neighborhoods and a safe world. We want to be free. The Working Families Party is regular people coming together across our differences to make a better future for us all. We’re a multiracial party that fights for workers over bosses and people over the powerful. We want an America which realizes the promise – unrealized in our history – of freedom and equality for all. ABOUT THIS ROLE The Working Families Party is seeking a California Senior Finance Director to set and drive the fundraising strategy for our work across the state. Working under the strategic direction of the Director of Individual Giving, the Senior Finance Director owns the California revenue plan, personally manages significant donor relationships, and builds infrastructure required to meet ambitious multi-cycle goals. The Senior Finance Director will carry a portfolio of the state’s highest-capacity donors, bundlers, and serve as a trusted advisor to state and national principals on their donor engagement. Day-to-day call time management, donor research, and event logistics are directed by you and executed by the staff and consultants you supervise.
