Reporting to ITIF’s chief communications officer and managing editor, the position will work closely with ITIF’s communications team and policy analysts to create and disseminate digital content that promotes ITIF’s policy research, markets its public events, and expands its social media presence to enhance its reputation and influence as the world’s leading think tank for science and technology policy.

The ideal candidate will have a keen interest in technology and innovation issues and may have gained their previous professional experience in journalism, government, or an organization such as a public policy think tank, industry trade association, advocacy group, public relations or public affairs agency.

They will be an excellent writer and communicator, adept at distilling nuance and complexity into sharp, engaging digital content.

The digital content and social media manager’s primary responsibility is to draw attention to all this activity through social media and email newsletters.

This is an exciting opportunity for a rising digital communications professional to deepen their expertise while helping to influence policy debates on important technology-related issues.

Duties

Partner with the communications team and ITIF policy analysts to execute a digital content and social media program that showcases ITIF’s policy publications, podcasts, events, and expertise.

Compose social media posts that capture key messages, big ideas, and policy recommendations from ITIF publications in concise, accessible language.

Produce short videos, take photographs at ITIF events, and create other digital content to boost social media engagement.

Monitor trending tech policy issues and expand ITIF’s social media following on Twitter (X), LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, Threads, Post, and other emerging platforms by strategically following and engaging with other policy thought leaders and influencers.

Work with the communications team to compile ITIF’s widely disseminated weekly email newsletter.

Partner with ITIF’s digital communications manager on collateral materials and website updates.

Track digital communications performance metrics and provide regular reports for staff as well as ITIF’s board.
