Job Details

The Liberal Democrats in East Surrey are on the move — and we’re looking for a dynamic Campaign Organiser to help lead the charge. Off the back of an incredible breakthrough at the last General Election, where Helen Maguire, Monica Harding, and Chris Coghlan were all elected to Parliament, we’re ready to take things to the next level.

Our current team of passionate volunteers, experienced councillors, and our three newly elected MPs is buzzing with energy. Now, with the biggest local elections in a generation on the horizon, we’re building the core team that will drive us to victory.

The May 2026 elections for the brand-new Unitary Councils will be a defining moment. Here in East Surrey, our mission is clear: to win control of the new Unitary Authority and cement the Liberal Democrats as the force of change for our communities. Success here will be key to defending our three seats in Parliament and making further gains at the next General Election.

As our Campaign Organiser, you won’t just be part of the team — you’ll be at the heart of our success, shaping the campaign that will define East Surrey’s political future.
