Position Descrip tion

Congresswoman Kelly Morrison is hiring for a Digital Director to run our digital communications strategy based out of Washington, DC. We’re looking for a sharp, creative, and deeply online digital strategist who lives at the intersection of culture and politics. This senior-level position will lead on turning traditional media, legislative efforts, and live events into compelling, shareable content – with an emphasis on short-form video and creative rapid-response.

The Digital Director will be responsible for creating and executing digital strategy for the first and only pro-choice OBGYN in Congress. We’re excited to bring on a strategic thinker, a thoughtful writer, and a digital native who thrives on turning creative ideas into content that resonates.

Hill experience is not required. Campaign, firm, and/or video production experience is strongly preferred.

Responsibilities:

• Develop and lead a proactive, cross-platform digital strategy aligned with the Congresswoman’s legislative priorities and communications goals
• Oversee all digital platforms and manage the day-to-day content calendar in coordination with the communications director
• Write and produce persuasive video scripts for direct-to-camera, green screen, and influencer-style formats
• Create engaging, accessible content across formats—graphics, videos, infographics, and short-form storytelling
• Work closely with press and legislative teams to translate hearings, speeches, and media hits into digital-first content
• Support rapid response efforts with timely, platform-specific content
• Pitch and execute bold digital ideas that push beyond traditional Hill communications
• Build and manage relationships with content creators, journalists, and digital media partners
• Track analytics and engagement data to assess performance and refine strategy

Qualifications:

• 3–5+ years of experience in digital communications, social media, video production, or multimedia storytelling (campaign experience strongly preferred)
• Proficiency in design tools like Canva or Adobe Creative Suite
• Strong experience with video editing and captioning tools, as well as photography and graphic design
• Fast, sharp writer with a strong visual and narrative instinct
• Strong political instincts and a habit of consuming a wide range of traditional and digital media, from news to niche internet culture
• Demonstrated experience working with creators or influencer collaborations
• Highly organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable managing multiple projects under pressure
• Self-starter with good judgment, creative instincts, and the ability to work independently
