  • Lead the creation of sales enablement and development tools, including messaging guides, strategy decks, onepagers, campaign collateral, and donor or investorspecific materials.
  • Translate complex, oftenintersecting issue areas into clear, compelling narratives, including education, the economy, health care, free speech, constitutionally limited government, and strong & safe communities.
  • Surface, shape, and package powerful stories across culture, music, sports, entertainment, and social impact. 
  • Partner with Communications on rapidresponse storytelling that converts solutions into cultural momentum. 
  • Produce multiformat content-web, video, newsletters, social, fundraising materials, partner collateral, pitch decks, investment overviews, and sales enablement assets-tailored to funders, partners, social entrepreneurs, and consumer audiences. 
  • Integrate AI tools to streamline editorial workflows, speed production, and unlock new creative approaches. 
  • Collaborate with Analytics to optimize content placement, performance, and impact, while working with external partners to amplify reach. 
  • Lead, mentor, and inspire a core editorial team, effectively scaling impact through contractors, freelancers, and agencies. 
  • Partner closely with Communications, Marketing, and executives to align strategy, messaging, and storytelling across the organization. 
  • Build a selflearning editorial system powered by testing, realtime analytics, and reputation insights.

What You Will Bring
  • 15+ years leading editorial teams in highlevel journalism, policy-driven organizations and/or globally recognized brands, and 10+ years managing large, diverse teams. 
  • Enthusiasm to contribute to Stand Together's vision and principled approach to solving problems, and a commitment to stewarding our culture, which champions values including transformation and innovation, entrepreneurialism, humility, and respect. 
  • Proven experience leading the development of sales enablement tools such as messaging guides, strategy guides, one pagers, pitch decks, investment overviews, and collateral.
  • A leadership style that elevates people, inspires bold ideas, and embraces transformation. 
  • Exceptional editing, writing, coaching, and storytelling skills. 
  • Experience introducing and scaling new AI tools within content or editorial environments.

  • A calm, thoughtful approach to fastpaced, deadlinedriven decisionmaking. 
  • Expertise managing multichannel editorial workflows and modern project management tools. 
  • A proven ability to audit and improve editorial processes for quality, speed, and impact. 
  • Comfort working directly with executives and navigating complex organizations. 
What We Offer
  • Competitive benefits: Enjoy a 6% 401(k) match with immediate vesting, flexible time off, comprehensive health and dental plans, plus wellness and mental health support through Peloton and Talkspace. 
  • A meaningful career: Join a passionate community of over 1,300 employees dedicated to improving lives and driving innovative solutions to complex social challenges. 
  • Commitment to growth: Thrive in a non-hierarchical environment that empowers employees to discover, develop and apply their unique talents.

Our Principles-Based Management (PBM) compensation philosophy is grounded in an individualized approach that rewards the long-term value each person creates for the organization. Compensation decisions are informed by a variety of factors, including relevant experience, capabilities, demonstrated skills, role responsibilities, and expected contribution. Consistent with this approach, base salary may vary within or outside of the anticipated range based on these considerations.
Our Values: Working for an organization within the Stand Together philanthropic community is different from many other places. The culture is deeply rooted in Principle Based Management (PBM), a framework guided by the principles that drive human progress, such as dignity, openness, and bottom-up empowerment. PBM empowers employees to be entrepreneurial, to innovate, and to continually drive transformation.   
 
We believe diversity fuels creativity, broadens knowledge, and helps drive success.  That is why we're proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer and strive to treat all employees and applicants with honesty, dignity, and respect.
We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
