Blue Wave is a leading national political consulting firm that delivers compliance, fundraising, and digital services to clients throughout the country. Founded in 2014, the firm represents political committees at every level of government from presidential and congressional races to state and local candidates, as well as political action committees and state parties.

Blue Wave Political Partners, a political fundraising, compliance, and digital consulting firm based in Washington state, is seeking a Client Manager to join our company based in the Portland, Oregon metro area. This is a great opportunity for those wishing to gain experience in progressive political campaigns, work for candidates that will make real change, and build a professional network.

This role would be remotely supporting our main office in Seattle but would be based in Oregon for client staffing responsibilities.

We believe that political campaigns have traditionally excluded many of those that are the most marginalized in society, including BIPOC, women, LGBTQ people, and people who have faced historical and structural barriers. Because we believe that these communities should be centered in the work we do, we strongly encourage applications from people with these identities or who are members of other marginalized communities.
