Public Health Advocates

Date Posted: 5/19/2025

Public Health Advocates (PHA) works to advance health and racial justice across California by changing systems, policies, and norms that shape the well-being of communities. For over 25 years, we’ve helped more than 200 cities and counties enact over 600 transformative local and state policies — from getting soda out of schools to pioneering alternative response models that reduce police involvement in nonviolent crises.

THE OPPORTUNITY

PHA is seeking a bold and visionary Director of Advocacy Communications to lead our organization- wide communications strategy — positioning us to win policy campaigns, mobilize communities and elevate their narratives, inspire decision-makers and funders, and deepen our brand identity in this critical political moment.
The Director will play a senior leadership role across the organization, providing strategic direction and supervision for a small communications team, while also personally leading the design and execution of communications campaigns tied to two key PHA initiatives:

• All Children Thrive California (ACT): a statewide initiative engaging community members and youth leaders focused on childhood trauma prevention and local policy innovation — up for reauthorization in 2026.

• First Response Transformation Campaign (FRTC): a campaign to reimagine first response systems by investing in non-police alternatives grounded in community and equity.

We are looking for someone who brings creativity, conviction, and execution. This is not just a comms role — it’s a leadership role. If you can translate complexity into compelling messaging, strategize and implement campaigns, develop staff and train community members, and know how how to use communications to shift culture, build power, and win funding — we want to hear from you.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Leadership & Strategic Vision

• Serve as a senior leader within PHA, helping to shape the organization’s overall communications identity, policy positioning, and public presence.

• Supervise and mentor communications staff and consultants, fostering a high-performance, mission-driven team culture.

Campaign Communications & Policy Support

• Co-develop and lead communications strategies for ACT and FRTC, including message development, media engagement, storytelling, and content creation.

• Provide strategic comms support for local and state policy campaigns, including branding, talking points, digital strategy, earned media, and collateral.

• Collaborate with program staff to integrate data, research, and policy into clear, values-driven messaging.

Brand Stewardship & Visibility

• Ensure consistency and clarity across all organizational messaging and platforms.

• Elevate PHA’s presence as a bold and credible voice for health and racial justice policy change.

• Support fundraising communications, including donor outreach, proposals, reports, and impact stories.

IDEAL CANDIDATE PROFILE

Must-Haves

• Leadership Experience: At least 3 years managing staff and/or contractors, including performance support and hard conversations.

• Strategic Communications Expertise: Minimum 7 years in advocacy, nonprofit, or public interest communications, with demonstrated experience in campaign communications, media relations, and narrative strategy.

• Mission Alignment: Deep understanding of and commitment to health equity, racial justice, and community power-building.

• Policy Fluency: Ability to translate policy, research, and organizing strategies into accessible, actionable content.

• Creative Vision: Strong aesthetic and messaging instincts — you can craft compelling copy, visuals, and strategies that cut through noise.

Bonus Points

• Experience supporting fundraising or development communications.

• Familiarity with California’s political and media landscape.

• Bilingual in English and Spanish.

LOCATION, COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

PHA is a remote organization. Employees must reside in California. Occasional in-person travel required, particularly in Sacramento, Stockton, and key partner cities.

Compensation:

$111,473–$122,620 depending on experience.

We’re looking for a highly-organized, resourceful, curious, passionate “events person” to join our team and support the nitty gritty planning and execution of events of all shapes and sizes — from multi-day conferences to summits, salons, board meetings, team retreats, virtual gatherings and more.  Someone whose happy place is tracking the process and sweating each and every detail as events come together from idea to reality. Who believes networks matter and that bringing people together is a science and an art that takes a lot of pre-planning and organization!

If you’re the kind of person who lives for checklists, can juggle multiple moving parts with grace, and gets satisfaction from making sure no detail slips through the cracks, this role is for you.

We stay on track through video check-in meetings, Slack, and occasional IRL team meetings/retreats. We’re an innovative, learning-oriented organization that values candid feedback, open conversations, having fun, and bringing a quality GIF game. We’re a busy bunch and we need the help of a smart, enthusiastic, organized go-getter.

This full-time position is an integral member of The Communications Network’s remote/DC-based team and reports to the VP of  Events and Community.   

What You Will Do: 

This role is all about making sure events, gatherings, and meetings run smoothly — before, during, and after. Your work will support leadership’s vision and you’ll be trusted with a variety of administrative and logistical responsibilities, including:

• Event Admin Support: Managing spreadsheets (guest lists, budgets, runs-of-show), tracking expenses, and keeping records organized. Scheduling and confirming internal and external meetings. 

• Vendor Coordination: Research, vet, and manage communications with venues, caterers, A/V teams, transportation providers, and other vendors. Request proposals, compare options, and track contracts and deliverables.

• Speaker & Participant Communications: Draft outreach pitches, event invitations, confirmation emails, prep materials, and logistical details. Maintain clean and accurate contact lists. Research contacts, send, follow up, and track correspondence. 

• Event Logistics & Planning: Update runs-of-show, draft timelines and travel itineraries, handle registration and RSVPs, coordinate shipments, and manage supplies.

• Payment Processing & Budget Tracking: Submit invoices, track payments, and help manage event-related invoices. Submit expense reports. Process payments and reimbursements accurately and on time.

• Event Planning Research: Support site selection, travel logistics, and speaker or venue research — you’ll be asked to do a lot of googling and researching of options.

• Meeting Coordination and Prep: Schedule and coordinate calls and meetings (both internal and external), create agendas, take notes, send reminders, send follow up, and keep everyone aligned and on track.

• Event Follow-Up: Supporting post-event wrap-up tasks like surveys and photo sorting.

• Inbox + Prioritization Support: You’ll monitor and manage incoming emails, flag what’s urgent, handle what you can, and keep things moving. 

• General Problem-Solving & Admin Support: When something pops up unexpectedly (because it always does), you fix it. You fill gaps and take pride in keeping things running smoothly behind the scenes.

• Other duties as assigned.

Qualifications and Experience:

Mindsets Needed

The job is not just about what you will do, but also how you will approach the work. 

These are the mindsets we expect you to show up with daily: 

• Logistics Lover + Systems Thinker
  You thrive on organizing chaos. You think in steps, timelines, and workflows — and you can spot potential roadblocks before they happen.

• Calm Under Pressure
  You stay composed, cool-headed, and effective even when timelines are tight, plans shift, or pressure is high. You don’t create more stress — you solve it.

• “No Job Too Big, No Task Too Small” Attitude
  You’re willing to do whatever it takes — stuffing gift bags, hauling boxes, fixing signage, updating the spreadsheet again — all in the name of a smooth, successful event.

• Anticipatory Thinking
  You don’t wait to be told what’s next. You’re always a step ahead, asking “What might we be forgetting?” and planning for it.

• Clear + Empathetic Communicator
  You communicate with clarity, kindness, and professionalism — with teammates, vendors, speakers, and guests alike.

• Flexible and Adaptable
  You can change directions quickly without resistance or frustration — taking updates or feedback with limited back-and-forth. Plans shift — you pivot, stay positive, and get it done. You make things happen — smoothly, efficiently, and without drama.

• Detail-Obsessed
  You notice what others don’t — the crooked tablecloth, the typo in the slide deck, the missing vegan entrée — because details create the experience.

• Team-Oriented + Service-Driven
  You take pride in supporting others and you go the extra mile to make work easier for your teammates. You enjoy working collaboratively and you’re happy to pitch in, support others, and help the whole team succeed. You think “we” is more than “me.”

• Sense of Urgency + Fast Execution
  You work with pace and purpose. You meet tight timelines, make quick decisions, and respond promptly when the pressure is on.

• Resourceful Problem-Solver
  You don’t just flag problems — you fix them. You’re creative, practical, and relentless in finding solutions with whatever resources are available.

Who You Are & Keys to Success (the must-haves)

• Must have 2-5 years of event planning experience.  

• Ability to work 40 hours a week (roughly 9:30-5:30pm Eastern Time) with occasional travel required as well as flexibility for on site, in-person event management (which may include occasional nights and weekends).

• You must be able to stand, walk, and be physically active for extended periods of time during event days.

• A calm, proactive approach when juggling multiple projects at once.

• Clear verbal and written communications skills — you’ll need to be able to quickly write clear, persuasive, messages to speakers, vendors, and partners.

• A deep love of logistics, checklists, and timelines. You will need to be highly organized, proactive, and detail-oriented, as well as have strong critical thinking and creative problem-solving skills. 

• An energetic, curious, positive, flexible, fun, and collaborative disposition. This is the most important qualification! 

Other information:

The Network offers terrific benefits, a tremendous opportunity to learn and grow, and a competitive total compensation package.

What’s the culture like?
