Overview

Join the fight for workers’ rights and dignity on the job! The Senior Data Organizer will work with our campaigners, Union leadership, and administrative staff to develop and run data systems needed to organize workers and win campaigns. At UNITE HERE we engage in ambitious and innovative projects to organize hospitality workers and are constantly working to strengthen our technology and data programs. Our team supports contract fights, strikes, new organizing campaigns, and political campaigns. 

UNITE HERE is a progressive labor union, dedicated to organizing workers in the hospitality industry to lift workplace standards in hotels, casinos, airports, and cafeterias across the United States and Canada. You will be part of a team that empowers workers – primarily women and people of color – in low-wage service sector jobs to achieve better wages, benefits, dignity, and rights at work.
