Reproductive Freedom For All - Communications Director

Michigan-based - through mid-Nov. 2022
$9,000/mo plus insurance stipend

Reproductive Freedom for All is a grassroots campaign of individuals and organizations committed to ensuring that every person in Michigan has the fundamental right to reproductive freedom, which involves the right to make and carry out decisions without political interference about all matters relating to pregnancy, including birth control, abortion, prenatal care, and childbirth.

The Reproductive Freedom for All ballot committee seeks to qualify a constitutional amendment
designed to safeguard the fundamental right to reproductive freedom, including the right to
make decisions related to pregnancy and childbirth without interference. Specifically, this
measure will ensure that all Michiganders have the right to safe and respectful care during
birthing, everyone has the right to use temporary or permanent birth control, everyone has the right to continue or end a pregnancy, and no one can be punished for having a miscarriage, stillbirth, or abortion.

RFFA is searching for an experienced, detail-oriented & enthusiastic
Communications Director to lead a broad portfolio of communications work for the 2022
election cycle in one of the country’s most exciting Ballot Initiative elections. This position will start ASAP and will continue to Nov. 15, 2022. Position is based in Michigan and reports to the Campaign Manager.

Responsibilities:
● Develop and implement an aggressive communications strategy for the campaign, driving
earned media coverage and emphasizing message continuity across all communications
platforms.
● Develop and maintain extremely strong relationships with the Michigan and National
press corps and serve as an on-the-record spokesperson for the campaign.
● Lead all preparation work with the Coalition for media opportunities and interviews.
● Oversee all media requests, press releases, op-eds, public statements, speeches,
talking points, presentations, media advisories, and proactive story pitches.
● Drive daily messaging through earned media and social media, including a robust
calendar of earned media events.
● Maintain a nimble rapid response program.
● Frequently communicate updates, ideas, and progress on long-term communications
goals to senior staff, consultants, and the Coalition Partners.
● Coordinate with state-based and national organizations who are part of the campaign on
earned and social media work.

Qualifications:
● Self-starter with a robust work ethic who is willing to work occasional weekends and
evenings in a fast-paced, high-pressure environment, with a high level of attention to
detail.
● Strong writer who can clearly communicate complex ideas in written form.
● Confident verbal communicator who can clearly communicate up and down
organizational hierarchy, and externally to reporters and other stakeholders.
● At least four years or two election cycles’ worth of experience working in political
communications.
● On-the-record experience with print, radio, and TV news reporters.
● Ties to Michigan or knowledge of the Michigan press corps strongly preferred but not
required.

This is a full-time position and will at times require weekend and evening work, both remote and in person work, and when national health conditions allow, you may be expected to travel to support the campaign’s activities.

Salary range for this position is $9,000 per month, commensurate with experience, and
includes a $1,000 per month healthcare stipend as well as a $100 per month cell phone stipend.
