If you thrive in a fast-paced environment and want the chance to work directly with our principal and senior team while shaping meaningful political advocacy, we’d love to hear from you!

About the Role

As our Office Manager / Administrative Assistant, you’ll be the go-to person for keeping our office running smoothly and supporting our team at every level—especially our principal and senior staff. You’ll manage a variety of tasks, from scheduling meetings and running errands, to organizing office supplies and greeting visitors.

Your responsibilities will include:

Office Management:

• Keep supplies stocked, organized, and tidy
• Coordinate with building management and external vendors for maintenance and repairs
• Greet visitors and direct them to the right people
• Set up conference rooms and meeting areas

Administrative Support:

• Manage calendars, schedule (and sometimes reschedule) meetings, calls, and appointments
• Arrange detailed travel plans and itineraries
• Assist with daily rundowns, reminders, and occasional personal tasks

What We’re Looking For

• Highly Organized Multi-Tasker: You’re great at juggling deadlines and staying on top of multiple to-dos.
• Independent Problem-Solver: You can work under limited supervision and figure out creative solutions on the fly.
• Clear Communicator: You communicate confidently—both in writing and on the phone—and can represent the firm professionally.
• Professionalism: Maintain a high standard of conduct, including professional communication (written and verbal) and representing the firm’s brand in all interactions.”
• Team Player with Confidentiality: You work well with diverse groups and handle sensitive information discreetly.
• In-Office Availability: You’re able to be in the office (downtown DC) five days a week.
• Education: Bachelor’s Degree

It would be nice to have:

Accounting & HR Assistance:

• Help reconcile credit card statements and expense reports
• Process bank deposits
• Assist with onboarding, mail sorting, and other admin tasks as needed

Previous administrative or office management experience is a plus, but what matters most is your ability to be proactive, flexible, and keep things running smoothly.

Why Join Us?

• Competitive Salary, Commensurate with Experience
• 100% Covered Medical Insurance
• Metro-Accessible, Gorgeous Downtown DC Location
• Collaborative, Supportive Team: Work with smart, dedicated people who are great at what they do—and fun to be around.

• Room for Growth: We offer plenty of opportunities to learn, grow, and move up within the firm.
