| Deputy Digital Advisor
The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC), the campaign committee dedicated to retaking the Democratic Senate majority, is hiring a Deputy Digital Advisor for the 2026 election cycle.
The Deputy Digital Advisor will serve on the Campaign Services Team, working under the Senior Digital Advisor and in close partnership with the Senior Campaign Advisors.
This is a critical role within the department that requires the routine exercise of discretion and independent judgment on significant issues, and so does require significant prior campaign experience including statewide campaign digital director or deputy director-level experience.
This is not always a 9-6, M-F job and will require work outside of normal business hours. This position is based in Washington, DC and expected to regularly come into the DSCC office and may occasionally require travel throughout the cycle and travel to a battleground state for GOTV efforts ahead of Election Day.
Please submit a resume and list of references if you’d like to apply.
