Description:
The Office of Congressman Don Davis (NC-01) is seeking a District Press Secretary/Digital
Manager to join a fast-paced, collaborative communications team serving one of the most
rural and agriculturally vital districts in the country. Working closely with the
Communications Director, the District Press Secretary/Digital Manager helps execute a dynamic communications plan and manages day-to-day relationships with constituents
and local and national media. Congressman Davis lives by a simple motto - meet people
where they are - and we're looking for a storyteller who does the same: someone who can
capture the people, places, and priorities of eastern North Carolina. This is not an entrylevel position, and it is based full-time in the community and district offices.
Responsibilities:
Responsibilities include developing and implementing a comprehensive communications
strategy that promotes the Member's priorities; drafting press releases, advisories, talking
points, op-eds, speeches, and digital content; managing all social media channels and
web content; producing original photo and video content that reflects the district;
monitoring news coverage and anticipating press inquiries; preparing the Member for
interviews and public appearances; building relationships with local and national
reporters; overseeing the Member's newsletter and questionnaires; and managing the
Franking program.
Qualifications:
Qualified candidates will bring at least two years of professional communications
experience; strong writing, editing, and proofreading skills; proficiency in graphic design,
photography, and videography; a sharp eye for social media content that resonates with a
rural audience; knowledge of the legislative process and the organization of the House;
and the ability to juggle multiple priorities under tight deadlines, including a flexible
schedule that entails nights and weekends. A bachelor's degree in journalism, public
relations, or a related field is preferred but not required. Ties to eastern North Carolina and
a genuine understanding of rural and agricultural communities are strongly preferred. Applicants with North Carolina ties are a plus.
Instructions:
Qualified candidates should submit a
resume, cover letter, three digital samples, and three writing samples in one
combined PDF with the subject line “District Press
Secretary/Digital Manager - Last Name, First Name.”

The Office of Representative Don Davis is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, gender identity, sexual orientation, marital status, parental status, military status, or any other factor or basis prohibited by applicable federal law.
