RESPONSIBILITIES
As a Project Lead, you will manage a team to deliver industry-leading results for a host of clients. Drawing on your experience with progressive politics and team management, you will develop innovative digital advocacy, fundraising, and advertising campaigns that shape your community and the country’s future!
To accomplish that, our Project Leads need to:
- Manage client relationships -- from conference calls to budgets -- and an internal team of digital and communications specialists

- Provide final internal approval for all client deliverables
- Advise and collaborate with Trilogy's creative and development teams on significant client projects including websites and microsites
- Research, test, and implement new digital advertising and marketing strategies and tactics
- Leverage relationships for business development, participate in marketing and proposal development, and represent Trilogy at industry conferences
REQUIRED SKILLS
People with all types of experiences, backgrounds and interests can excel at this position. But here are a few traits most successful account leads will bring to the table:

- You are creative: You love to write (or edit!) and you’re always coming up with new strategic ideas to try out.
- You are never satisfied: You aren't just interested in checking boxes, but in continually pushing your team to test out new strategies that improve results.
- You love building relationships: Your communications in person or by phone and email aren't just about the next task, but also about growing a long-term rapport with clients, partners, and fellow team members.
- You've got a political gut: Clients trust you because they know you get it: the politics, the context, the positions, and the issues that drive them.
- You are curious: What's the newest digital organizing trend? How can we use today's news in our work? What's going on in a client's community?
- You are a leader: You take an interest in the personal and professional growth of your fellow team members. You contribute to a positive workplace culture.
- You have experience: Probably about 3-5 years, either in progressive politics, organizing, or digital media.
