Senior Writer and Press Manager
RepresentUs
Title: Senior Writer and Press Manager Location: Remote, USA Department: Marketing – Marketing & Communications Job Description: RepresentUs fuels a grassroots movement to make government answer to people, not just the powerful.

You’ll translate complex policy and political stories into things people actually care about, and inspire them to action, in a rapidly changing media landscape. You’ll think ahead to where audiences will be months from now, and build now for that moment. This role operates in two modes: fast-turnaround content tied to news and campaign moments, and longer-term narrative work, including developing our core messaging, structuring how we tell our story on the website, and building evergreen content that holds up over time. The best candidates will be energized by both. We believe change is possible, because we’ve helped make it happen. Our content is hopeful and action-oriented, not just outraged. We need someone who can hold that tone even when the news is bad. We value curiosity and planned experimentation. We test, we measure, and we learn. We don’t have all the answers and we want someone who’s energized by figuring them out.
