Full-time Associate

ABOUT YOU

We’re looking for an ambitious self-starter to join our growing team. You’re hungry, smart, interested in problem solving, and have a passion for written and verbal communication. You also:

  • Are entrepreneurial – comfortable solving problems and creating a process from scratch

  • Are comfortable with tasks large and small: You can prep a major executive or principal for media, but you’re also comfortable running to FedEx

  • Are a critical thinker who understands the drivers of the business and policy ecosystem, beyond communications

  • Are deeply committed to client service and value delivery

  • Are willing to work full-time and in-person in Washington, DC

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES


Your job will be somewhat amorphous as we scale – and you’ll have the opportunity to take on additional and significant responsibilities as we grow, with access to major decision-makers in media, policy, and Corporate America. You’ll initially:

  • Conduct regular media monitoring 

  • Prepare briefing documents for interactions with the press and/or Capitol Hill 

  • Conduct research to drive press outreach and engage in creative storytelling with the media 

  • Assist in logistics and planning for events, gatherings, and productions

  • Bring your unique, outside skills – data analysis, AI operationalization, policy research, etc – to the table
