THE POSITION:
The City Auditor’s Office is seeking a professional that is curious, community-oriented, and knowledgeable about strong democratic policies to assist in Portland’s elections education and administration programs. This position will be critical to engaging and educating Portland voters on local and state law during a continued time of change and growth for Portland’s elections.

It employs nearly 52 staff members working in seven divisions.
This position joins four elections staff in the City Elections Division and reports to the Elections Education Supervisor. The Division oversees city elections processes such as required voter education, ballot qualification, petition and measure management, and elections results certification to City Council. The Division also carries out services under the umbrella of Campaign Finance and Lobbying Regulations, including investigations and enforcement procedures. The Division provides information and training to candidates and city officials and partners alongside other elections jurisdictions to carryout open, accountable, and transparent city elections.
In 2022, voters approved city government reforms, including a new system of ranked-choice voting and council election by geographic districts. The Elections Division leads the charter-mandated voter education for the City of Portland. During the 2026 election cycle, the Division will continue to improve upon its voter education approach, including facilitating vital community peer-to-peer education.
