HeadCount is looking for Team Leaders in many cities across the country. Team Leaders represent the organization any time a HeadCount affiliated artist appears in the team’s metropolitan area. Team Leaders organize and schedule teams of volunteers (using HeadCount’s Intranet database), train them in HeadCount’s field procedure and manage the entire process of setting up a table at an event. They are responsible for ensuring that HeadCount engages as many music fans as possible and that we present ourselves in a professional manner. They are asked to be problem solvers, diplomats, motivators and mentors, identifying solutions for each challenge that presents itself in the live concert environment. They must be accessible throughout the week to local volunteers and Regional Coordinators, file show reports after each event and participate in regularly scheduled conference calls. Most of all, they must be able to organize and inspire volunteers to work together toward the common goal of getting music fans to become more active, involved citizens.
Volunteer position. Team Leaders are eligible for a yearly performance-based stipend of up to $1,000.

Field volunteers are the driving force behind HeadCount. Since our launch in 2004, music fans from all walks of life have signed on to help register other fans to vote and encourage participation in democracy. Our organizational mission is fulfilled through the interaction between our volunteers and thousands of other people. As the true frontline warriors in the fight for democracy, volunteers must be enthusiastic, good communicators and most of all reliable. They also must be willing to miss part (or, in some cases, all) of a concert and make HeadCount’s activities their priority the night of an event. Volunteers are asked to be at the concert venue before doors open to the public, help set up the table, and then proactively engage music fans. At the end of the night, volunteers help break down the HeadCount table and organize completed forms.
