Priorities USA is hiring an Associate Creative Director to support its Marketing and Content team on paid digital voter programs. This is a remote, cycle-based role through the end of 2026, with occasional travel and working hours of 10AM–6PM ET regardless of location.

The ACD is a key creative partner reporting to the Creative Director, helping shape scripts, pitches, and creative concepts from initial brief to final delivery. You will bring cultural fluency and a strong digital instinct to content that connects with diverse voter audiences across digital platforms.

What you’ll do

• Write video scripts, narratives, and treatments that translate research and messaging strategy into compelling content for diverse voter audiences.
• Own video production end-to-end, including pre-production planning, hiring vendors and crews, on-site direction, and post-production oversight, with willingness to travel for field shoots.
• Track project-level budgets across individual productions, reconcile vendor invoices, and flag spend issues clearly and promptly to the Creative Director and the Director of Project Management.
• Apply cultural fluency and a sharp digital perspective to each brief, pushing creative beyond traditional ad formats.

What you bring

• 5+ years of experience in a creative role, including at least one election cycle in political advertising, campaigns, or issue advocacy.
• Exceptional script writing and narrative development, with the ability to craft short-form video concepts for diverse voter audiences.
• Strong conceptual thinking and pitching ability, able to develop original ideas from a brief and build compelling treatments independently.
• Hands-on video production experience, including comfort hiring and directing vendors and crews, managing talent, and overseeing logistics in the field.
• Deep cultural fluency and an up-to-date sense of the digital and social landscape, translating trends and cultural moments into innovative political content that moves people.
• Ability to track project-level budgets and reconcile vendor invoices, with clear and timely escalation of spend issues.
