HIRING Senior Digital Strategist

The firm already has a book of exciting established candidates and non-profit clients who are working to reform and safeguard America’s democracy while challenging the Trump administration and its collaborators across all issue areas and on every communications platform.
The position will require an individual who understands that we’ve entered a new era of political communications in this country, and the tactics that we’ve employed for a generation to influence voters and compel them to action simply aren’t working anymore. The ideal candidate will understand that progressive messaging needs to be put directly into the hands of the people who need to hear it in order for them to successfully take action. The Senior Digital Strategist will understand that this messaging needs to be written in a way so that target audiences will emotionally connect with it and feel compelled to share those messages with others.
