Rising Tide Associates (RTA) is a public affairs firm that uniquely integrates government affairs, business development, and public relations services into strategies that lead to business growth. Consistently recognized by Bloomberg Government as one of the Top Performing Lobbying Firms in the United States, Rising Tide has a remarkably successful track record of delivering strategic counsel, marketing advice, policy direction, legislative advocacy, outreach planning, and media relations to our clients.
Our work is focused on supporting American manufacturing companies who produce the fiber, textiles, uniforms, armor, footwear and associated clothing and equipment utilized by the members of the U.S. Armed Services. Distinctively different from traditional lobbying firms, we develop long-term relationships with our clients and apply our decades of experience to deliver measurable results.

The successful candidate will possess an entrepreneurial spirit, outstanding writing and public speaking skills, and a work ethic focused on helping our clients succeed. The ability to build strong relationships with senior executives and elected officials is essential. Responsibilities of this position include:
· Analyze, recommend and direct federal government affairs strategies that support the needs of Rising Tide’s clients.
· Communicate client’s public policy positions and business needs in a compelling manner to Members of Congress, Congressional staff, federal agency representatives, state legislators, regulators and other officials
· Provide government affairs and strategic business advice to client’s senior leadership on key issues, trends, legislative and regulatory activities.
· Write press releases, marketing material, and business development strategies on behalf of our clients.

· As necessary, develop relationships with outside lobbying firms for effective teaming.
