The Ohio River Valley institute (ORVI) – an independent
nonprofit providing research and solutions for a more
sustainable, equitable, democratic, and prosperous
Appalachia – is hiring for the newly created position of Senior Communications Strategist. This is not a traditional communications role.

Words, images, and metaphors help us stake out areas of
common ground, connect policy to people’s lives, and can even shape the underlying cultural mythologies that define a region’s choices. This belief is at the heart of this new position. Along with our team of regionally-focused experts producing substantive research on the most pressing issues facing our communities, the Senior Communications Strategist will take an empirical, research-driven approach to communications that will boost the outreach and communication efforts of the Ohio River Valley’s entire progressive community.

Salary Range: $85,000 - $100,000
