The Resident Commissioner of Puerto Rico, Pablo José Hernández, seeks a Field Representative/Projects Coordinator based in his Caguas, Puerto Rico office. This is an in-person position, not a remote position. In close collaboration with the District Director, Deputy District Director, and other District Staff, the Field Representative/Projects Coordinator will act as a liaison to federal, state, and local government entities and agencies on behalf of the Resident Commissioner's constituents. The individual will also be responsible for overseeing and coordinating congressional programs focused on youth engagement, including the Congressional Art Competition and other related initiatives, as well as managing additional outreach projects and assignments delegated by District Office leadership. This position reports to the District Director and is not an entry-level position.
Responsibilities include managing incoming and outgoing constituent casework within assigned areas of expertise; assisting constituents in identifying and pursuing federal grant opportunities; planning, coordinating, and executing congressional programs and delegated outreach projects; preparing and coordinating letters of support and other congressional correspondence and documentation, as appropriate; and representing the Resident Commissioner at events and meetings throughout the District.
Candidates should be fully fluent in Spanish and English languages, have a minimum of 2-4 years of similar experience, and strong writing and organizational skills. The ideal candidate is collaborative, energetic, detail-oriented, able to multi-task, and committed to public service while working in a fast-paced and demanding setting. Puerto Rico ties, extensive knowledge of Puerto Rican issues, and prior government experience are strongly preferred.
