Who We Are
At Murmuration, we believe that America’s promise is shaped and reshaped by the best ideas and ideals of its communities and the dreams of the people who believe in a better life for themselves, their families, and each other.
We help organizations build power in their communities in four key ways: we organize a network of values-aligned partners; we provide deep, data-driven insights into people, places, and perspectives; we develop tools that make organizing and engagement easy and more effective; and we offer services that strengthen our partners’ capacity to build power and lead change in their communities.
We envision an America where every community has what it needs to help people lead healthy, free, and dignified lives. We work to redesign the systems and structures we all depend on — how we learn, live, govern, and solve problems — so that they are just, equitable, resilient, and rooted in shared responsibility. By strengthening the ties that hold communities together, we aim for civic life defined by collective action and care, with effective leadership that truly represents everyone.
We are a collaborative, curious, and creative team of organizers, scientists, teachers, technologists, campaign veterans, and more who share the unwavering belief that we can use our gifts in service of transforming America — together. We’ve built our team guided by the belief that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. And so we support each other relentlessly — rallying together to face challenges the same way we celebrate each other’s wins.
About the Position
Murmuration is seeking an exceptional Lead Creative Strategist to lead the development and production of innovative, compelling, and effective campaign creative.
We're looking for someone who understands what makes great political and advocacy advertising work and has the creative instincts, strategic judgment, and hands-on experience to make it happen.
The ideal candidate is a creative strategist and storyteller who can take a complex issue, identify the most compelling way to communicate it, and turn that insight into content that captures attention, moves audiences, and inspires action. They are equally comfortable developing a big campaign concept, writing a powerful 30-second ad, and producing digital-first content designed for the way people actually consume information today.
This is a senior, hands-on creative leadership role with people-management responsibility. We're not simply looking for someone to manage agencies or review creative produced by others. We want someone who can conceive, write, develop, and lead the production of outstanding creative work, while building the capabilities and partnerships needed to deliver that work at scale.
We have a particular interest in candidates with deep expertise in digital-first creative, including short-form video, social media advertising, and creator-led content. The ideal candidate understands how the media landscape is changing and knows how to develop content that feels native to the platforms and communities where audiences spend their time. They should also be able to create compelling concepts for political mail.
This person will work closely with Murmuration's campaign strategists and partners to translate strategic insights into high-impact creative campaigns.
