Term: 11 months (contract)
Senior Associates are outstanding project managers, writers, and editors — and the engine of our social media client work. Key to our small teams, Senior Associates drive critical deliverables, run key client interactions, and help develop the next generation of GHS talent. You will work across communications, advocacy, and project management, typically supporting two or more client accounts at once.
We’re looking for people who bring entrepreneurial energy and out-of-the-box thinking to complex problems, who are as passionate about the craft of communications as they are about the issues, and who understand that impactful work — especially in a global, fast-moving field — doesn’t always fit neatly into a 9-to-5. If that sounds like you, we’d love to be in touch.

Making complex concepts accessible and actionable to a wide audience by creating and polishing key messages, fact sheets, social media posts and creative digital materials

Elevating the voice and expertise of high-level influencers by polishing opinion pieces at key moments, prepping them for interviews and drafting speeches and talking points for events
