Communications Director, Strong and Safe Communities

Arlington, Virginia

Stand Together is a philanthropic community that helps America's boldest changemakers tackle the root causes of our country's biggest problems, from education to the economy, broken communities, and toxic division, among dozens of other pressing issues. We provide our partners with access to resources including funding, thought leadership, a network of peers, and a playbook for applying proven principles to transform lives and society.

We're seeking a Communications Director to lead external communications and earned media strategy for our Strong & Safe Communities portfolio. This person will be responsible for elevating the voices of community leaders and advancing Stand Together's vision for safe, thriving neighborhoods where every person can realize their potential. You'll drive national, regional, and local visibility through compelling storytelling, earned media engagement, and thought leadership that challenge conventional narratives and highlight bottom-up solutions.

How You Will Contribute

Develop and execute integrated communications strategies that break through in earned media and align with broader Stand Together initiatives.

Craft and oversee the development of press releases, statements, messaging frameworks, and other content that advance the strong and safe communities vision.

Build and manage Tier 1 media and influencer relationships, proactively securing coverage that positions community experts and partners as trusted voices.

Partner closely with marketing, digital, and internal comms teams to ensure messages are amplified across owned and paid channels.

Provide strategic counsel to senior leaders; prepare principals for interviews, panels, and thought leadership engagements.

Monitor results, set KPIs, and manage budgets and agency partnerships with a focus on impact and continuous improvement.

Anticipate risks, protect brand reputation, and adapt strategies quickly in a fast-moving environment.

What You Will Bring

8+ years of experience in nonprofit, philanthropy, or PR / agency communications with proven media results.

Strong writing and editing skills; ability to simplify complex issues into compelling stories.

Demonstrated success leading earned media strategies and managing high-stakes communications.

Experience navigating a matrixed organization and aligning multiple stakeholders.

A relationship-builder who thrives in fast-paced, dynamic environments and can influence at senior levels.

Leadership ability to mentor and develop talent, while collaborating across teams and partners.

Enthusiasm to contribute to Stand Together's vision and principled approach to solving problems, and a commitment to stewarding our culture, which champions values including transformation and innovation, entrepreneurialism, humility, and respect.

What We Offer

Competitive benefits : Enjoy a 6% 401(k) match with immediate vesting, flexible time off, comprehensive health and dental plans, plus wellness and mental health support through Peloton and Talkspace.

A meaningful career : Join a passionate community of over 1,300 employees dedicated to improving lives and driving innovative solutions to complex social challenges.

Commitment to growth : Thrive in a non-hierarchical environment that empowers employees to discover, develop and apply their unique talents.

Competitive compensation : Our approach rewards the value you create through competitive salaries and bonus opportunities, allowing you to share in the success you help drive.

Our Values : Working at Stand Together is different from many other organizations. Our culture is deeply rooted in Principle Based Management (PBM), a framework guided by the principles that drive human progress, such as dignity, openness, and bottom-up empowerment. PBM empowers our employees to be entrepreneurial, to innovate, and to continually drive transformation.

We believe diversity fuels creativity, broadens knowledge, and helps drive success, and that is why we're proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer and strive to treat all employees and applicants with honesty, dignity, respect and sensitivity.
