For more than 80 years, NFIB has been the leading advocate for small business owners in Washington, D.C., and all 50 state capitals. As a nonprofit, nonpartisan, member-driven organization, we help ensure independent business owners have a voice in government and the resources they need to thrive.

Sales experience is helpful but not required. We're looking for individuals who demonstrate grit, resilience, coachability, and the drive to overcome challenges. If you bring a strong work ethic, a positive attitude, and the ability to build trust with others, your background matters less than your potential.
