Who We Are

We are deeply committed to public service and progressive social change. We are 100% minority owned and operated with a diverse team, inclusive of gender, ethnicity, and race.

Politech seeks a Director of Sales and Marketing to join our team. We are looking for an individual with excellent communication skills who will work as a self-starter. The ideal candidate should have several cycles of progressive political or issue campaign experience and an extensive professional network in the progressive campaign space.

The individual should be highly motivated to make a difference and to move progressive issues forward. Interest and understanding of politics and campaigns is a must, as you will develop new business through prospecting your network, Democratic campaign staff, progressive issue advocacy groups and community organizing organizations.

Our employees are from all over the country and bring varying levels of experience to the company. First and foremost, we value honesty from all employees. We strongly encourage a work environment centered on open communication and conscientiousness. Working remotely gives our employees the ability to better maintain a work-life balance, but we expect that productivity and job performance will not be sacrificed.

We are a fully remote team so you will need to be flexible to work with staff in different time zones when requested.
