Do you believe that California is uniquely positioned to set the standard for our country by serving as a beacon of progressive, equitable, and truly representative democracy?  Are you deeply frustrated by the failure of many Democrats to demonstrate the political courage necessary to defeat the right-wing assault on our democracy?  Do you believe that political organizing must center the New American Majority (young adults, people of color, and self-identified progressives) and cease pandering to mythical white “swing” voters? If so, you might be the person Courage Campaign is looking for to lead our communications work going forward. THE ORGANIZATION:  Founded in 2005, Courage Campaign organizes on a wide variety of issues and envisions California as a model of progressive, equitable, and truly representative democracy that sets the standard for our country. To get there, Courage Campaign believes that we must call out corruption and oppression, improve coordination and collaboration between progressive organizations, and demand that our representatives be both accountable to and reflective of the people they seek to serve. Courage Campaign’s analysis emphasizes the fact that most modern elections are not decided by ideology, as commonly presented in the media. Instead, in order to win, we must engage underrepresented base voters -- particularly young adults, people of color, and self-identified progressives -- who will provide more votes and support bolder policy solutions when compared with older, whiter, more conservative, “swing” voters. By expanding the base, Courage knows that we can win without sacrificing our values or transformational policy.  Courage also prioritizes deep collaboration with partners, constantly working to ensure that our policy goals reflect the needs of our communities, that our campaigns highlight work led by others, and our programs complement those of our allies. Lastly, Courage leverages cutting-edge technology to engage voters through innovative tactics and messaging via online, mobile, and social platforms/tools.   THE JOB:  The Communications Director will own Courage Campaign’s story. This includes supervising messaging on all of Courage Campaign’s external communications, including press releases, statements, media advisories, editorial content such as op-eds and LTEs, member emails, and social media. You will work with and direct our public relations consultants to develop relationships with reporters and media influencers, leading Courage Campaign’s effort to become the voice of the progressive left in California politics.  You will supervise our social media team and lead our strategy to increase the reach and impact of our social media presence. You will be responsible for owning messaging on all of our campaigns and consulting with experts, so that our campaigns are always using the most strategic and effective messaging frames and talking points. And you will participate in team discussions, leading brainstorms to develop earned media tactics to support campaigns. You will be the lead writer of all press releases and op-eds, while providing message guidance for colleagues to use in emails and social media posts.  MUST HAVES ( Work, volunteer, academic, and life experience are all acceptable) : ●      Extensive experience (ideally more than five years) working in public relations/communications/media, at an advocacy organization, or as part of a firm. ●     Ability to articulate progressive values and connect them to Courage Campaign’s programs in a way that is powerful and emotionally resonant ●     Deep interest in and knowledge of California politics and media ●      Experience in intersectional communications, bringing a strong equity lens to all aspects of the work ●     Ability to weave policy and advocacy into effective messages that move audiences ●     Knowledge of and/or direct experience with social media best practices ●     Extraordinary written and verbal communication skills ●     Sharp strategic instincts, analysis, and judgment ●     Ability to work well on a team with both colleagues and partners ●     Experience managing complex projects from start to finish, independently and as part of a team ●      Passion for progressive politics and social justice and interest in a broad set of issues ●      Strong work ethic and a marked ability to produce work independently    Benefits LOCATION:  California or willing to relocate to California.
