• Collaborate with our creative and communications teams to align content with project goals.

What We’re Looking For:

• Proven experience sourcing or creating original content for social media, with strong familiarity in handling video.
• Strong understanding of today’s political landscape, including ways the Republican Party has moved away from traditional conservative values during the Trump era.
• Ability to track multiple news streams, content sources, and rapid-response opportunities simultaneously.
• Collaborative mindset and enthusiasm for teamwork.
• You’re able to be in the office (downtown DC) five days a week.
