Job Description

Do you want to craft communications for the biggest names and brands, at a place that demands creativity and values the Oxford comma? If so, let us hear from you. We are always on the lookout for talented writers to join our team. If you do not see a specific position listed, you can submit a resume and writing samples for future consideration below. If we're interested in your application, a member of our recruitment committee may reach out for a chat to get to know you, even if we aren't currently hiring.

West Wing Writers is a strategic communications firm with offices in Washington, DC and New York City, as well as employees located across the country. We’re veterans of the Obama White House and the Clinton White House, of presidential campaigns, governors’ offices, and Capitol Hill. We’re journalists and teachers; novelists and activists; comedians, poets, and foreign policy experts.

Today, we craft messaging for some of the most compelling leaders and thinkers. We’ve helped CEOs tell their stories on the world’s biggest stages. We’ve helped global foundations make the case for a new wave of philanthropy. We’ve helped politicians rally national political conventions, companies launch products to global markets, and people from all walks of life hold TED audiences in rapt attention.

Every day we come to work, we partner with a wide array of clients around the world—from Fortune 500 Companies to progressive activists—to find their voice, hone their message, and push for change. We love what we do, and we’d love you to join us.

‍We’re committed to a diverse and inclusive work environment. We strongly encourage members of historically underrepresented groups to reach out, including people of color, women, LGBTQ+ individuals, gender-nonconforming people, neurodivergent individuals, veterans, individuals with disabilities, and multilingual individuals.

Requirements

  • Extensive research experience
  • Excellent written and oral communications skills
  • The ability to work with clients of different backgrounds and styles, who request a variety of deliverables
  • Interest and experience in writing and communications
  • The skills to craft compelling, original prose, while balancing client goals and internal guidance; and
  • The ability to accept, internalize, and implement feedback

We hire at two levels, depending on our needs and the candidate’s experience and abilities: Associate and Director. We also conduct a robust internship program available to all, three times a year.

  • Interns: 0+ years of experience, $3,300 monthly, please see our website for more information on how to apply;
  • Associates: 0+ years of relevant experience, salary range of $65,000 - $86,300; and
  • Directors: 5+ years of relevant experience, salary range of $92,500 - $125,000.

Due to the amount of interest we receive we will not be able to respond to every request.

Benefits

All employees earn 15-20 days of vacation leave, 7 sick days, 2 floating holidays, and 12 paid holidays off every year. We also have a robust medical leave and parental leave policy.

As of 2023, West Wing Writers became employee-owned when we implemented an Employee Ownership Stock Plan (ESOP). This transfer of ownership reflects our people-centered values and culture and our mission to enhance our team-driven, outcome-oriented approach. Every year, employee-owners receive shares of our stock on top of a 3% safe harbor 401(k) contribution.
