Job Description

CDM is hiring a smart, driven, and intellectually curious team member to help us decode the chaos and build strategic narratives that matter. This is a hybrid role with a strong emphasis on research and strategy, paired with real-world communications execution. You’ll dive deep into policy topics, information integrity, emerging technologies, and the shifting dynamics of political and cultural power – and help translate those insights into compelling communications, briefs, events, and campaigns. We don’t do traditional job descriptions because we’re not a traditional company. But if you’re the kind of person who reads the news, questions everything, and figures stuff out faster than anyone else in the room – keep reading.

• Track and analyze key cultural, political, and policy trends – from climate to technology to democracy to industrial policy
• Write high-quality research briefs, memos, and strategic recommendations
• Draft and edit articles, one-pagers, and communications for internal and external use
• Help design and execute events that convene business, political, and cultural leaders
• Support multimedia content or podcast prep
• Keep operations running smoothly – manage calendars, track invoices, and support logistics as needed

• A sharp writer and clear thinker who thrives in fast-paced, ambiguity-filled environments
• Insatiably curious about politics, economics, sustainability, and how narratives shape power
• Comfortable toggling between research and execution – you can think big  and get things done
• Confident working directly with senior leaders and external stakeholders
• Bonus if you’ve worked on comms campaigns, media production, research projects, or policy events
  

• Bachelor’s degree (required)
• 1–3 years of relevant work experience preferred
• Writing sample required
• Highly organized and detail-oriented
• Strong critical thinking and communication skills
• Flexibility to travel or work non-traditional hours occasionally
  

• 401(k)
• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• Flexible hybrid work environment
• Mentorship and rapid growth potential
