Senior Writer, Events Communications

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. As a Senior Writer, Events Communications, you will lead donor-facing communications for our flagship in‑person events. You will work at the intersection of program, fundraising, and storytelling—owning the written experience that recruits the right partners into the room, prepares them to participate meaningfully on site, and converts that engagement into sustained involvement and philanthropic outcomes after the event. This position is ideal for a writer‑strategist who thrives in complex, high‑stakes environments; is comfortable translating ambitious event objectives into clear, compelling communications; and can operate confidently across multiple stakeholders, tight timelines, and iterative review cycles. Own donor event communications end‑to‑end Write and steward all major donor‑facing communications tied to tentpole events, including invitation letters and emails, recruitment and retention messaging, anticipation and preparation materials, on‑site welcome and contextual pieces, and post‑event follow‑up communications designed to advance fundraising and engagement goals. Ensure communications are aligned across the full partner journey—from first invitation through post‑event conversion—while adapting tone, framing, and calls to action by audience segment and event phase. Develop adjacent event content that shapes the on‑site experience Draft and refine event‑adjacent content such as session titles and descriptions, app and digital platform copy, and on‑site storytelling elements (e.g., partner features, installations, or printed materials) that help partners understand where they fit in the work and how to engage. Translate programming objectives and partner strategy into clear, motivating language that sets expectations and elevates the quality of on‑site participation. Enable and reinforce 1:1 partner engagement Create scaled communications, frameworks, and toolkits that reinforce and amplify one‑to‑one outreach led by Partnership Advisors. Design messaging that tees up advisor conversations, reinforces key themes, and helps partners connect event participation to broader philanthropic opportunities. Navigate complex, high‑velocity workflows Operate comfortably in a fast‑moving environment with parallel reviews, evolving inputs, and firm production deadlines. Manage drafts and revisions across shared documents and source‑of‑truth materials, incorporating feedback efficiently while maintaining narrative clarity and quality. Prepare communications for senior internal signers, including C‑suite executives, with attention to voice, credibility, and strategic intent. Qualifications Significant experience writing high‑stakes communications for senior leaders, donors, or partners, ideally in philanthropy, nonprofit, mission‑driven, or complex stakeholder environments. Proven ability to own a communications stream end‑to‑end, from strategy and framing through execution and revision. Strong editorial judgment and narrative instincts, paired with comfort working through dense feedback, multiple reviewers, and evolving direction. Experience collaborating across functions such as events, marketing, fundraising, or partnerships. Confidence writing for senior internal signers and navigating voice, tone, and positioning accordingly. Exceptional organizational skills and attention to detail, especially in deadline‑driven, multi‑workstream contexts. 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.
