Strategy Director, Command Centers

Responsibilities

• Partner closely with clients to develop a narrative strategy tailored to their organization, goals, and context—guiding them through the process and building internal alignment and buy-in across their organization
• Articulate the core elements, including key messages, target audiences, brand pillars, and the thematic frames that anchor all content and creator activity
• Collaborate with the data and research team to develop the audience insights that ground the strategy—identifying who to reach, what moves them, and where to find them
• Stand up the Creator Command Center, establishing the workflows and tools the team needs to operate at speed
• Manage relationships with partner agencies and vendors, coordinating on creator recruitment, onboarding, timelines, and deliverables
• Build and steward a roster of creators across platforms, earning the trust they need to engage on high-stakes issues

Requirements

• Demonstrated ability to develop overarching narrative and messaging frameworks across complex, fast-moving issue landscapes
• Proven ability to engage and build trust with senior, high-level clients—guiding executives and organizational leaders through strategic processes, sustaining and deepening relationships over the arc of an engagement
• Exceptional synthesis and writing skills—you can take dense research or competing signals and distill them into clear strategic direction
• A collaborative leadership style—you make teams around you sharper without overriding the voices and expertise they bring
• Entrepreneurial orientation—you’re energized by scaling something proven, comfortable with ambiguity, and rigorous about learning from what you launch
• Experience designing or refining organizational offerings, products, or service models, whether in a consultancy, agency, startup, or advocacy context
• Experience in movement communications, advocacy, or issue-area campaigning outside traditional electoral contexts
• Familiarity with creator ecosystems and influencer strategy—you understand how narrative translates to platform-native content, even if you’re not a platform specialist
