Convergence Targeted Communications is seeking an Associate for full-time employment in our Washington, DC office. The Associate reports to the Vice President and also works directly with the firm's President.
About the company: Convergence Targeted Communications is a boutique strategic communications consultancy based in Washington, DC, focused on electoral politics. We create and produce targeted communications (including but not limited to direct mail and digital advertising) for political campaigns and forward-thinking causes and coalitions. We're proud that our client base encompasses a full spectrum of progressive/Democratic thought, and of our corporate and nonprofit/advocacy work.
We're a small company with big reach – our clients have ranged from candidates for City Council to President, and we've worked in 40 states (so far).
About the job: In addition to administrative work (including billing/invoicing, production, research, and other tasks), you'll work on nearly every phase of the communications process, from drafting communications to working with our design team and clients to edit and produce top-notch, error-free work. This will include some 'finishing' print design work, using the Adobe Creative Suite.
At a larger firm, an associate might work in one particular 'silo,' but at Convergence, you'll have the opportunity to do a bit of everything, while enjoying a laid back (though still professional) working environment and a "bureaucracy-free zone" that you won't find at larger firms. Convergence takes professional development seriously; in this role, you'll have the opportunity to participate in technical trainings and attend industry events.
Salary is commensurate with experience and includes 100% coverage of health insurance costs.
About you: You may have political campaign experience, or have studied politics or campaigns as an undergraduate. You're passionate about progressive, results-oriented politics, and may have been told by friends that you're obsessed with detail. You want to do good while doing well, and you don't mind working odd hours (only) when necessary. Ideally, you have some experience with social media, or political or traditional marketing writing. Administrative experience is also a plus.
Qualifications:
- 0-2 years of professional experience in communications or political campaigns
- Record of attention to detail in an occasionally stressful environment
If you have experience with any of the following, please let us know: Adobe Creative Suite, especially InDesign, Photoshop, or Illustrator; Facebook Business Manager; Google Advertising Platform; WordPress; HTML; CSS; Votebuilder/Targetsmartvan; Nationbuilder; PDI; Labels and Lists (L2).
How to apply: Apply here, or email a resume and a writing sample to nmildebrath@convergencetargeted.com. That writing sample can be a cover letter, short published or unpublished work, or anything that demonstrates your ability to clearly express yourself in short form.
Convergence Targeted Communications is an equal opportunity employer committed to assembling a diverse, broadly trained staff. Women, people of color, people with disabilities and veterans are strongly encouraged to apply.
