**WHO WE ARE**

Founded in 2009, Point Blank Creative is a national full-service agency working to unleash the power of progressive movements by bringing together best practices in traditional advertising, digital, and community organizing. We work with movements and causes we care about, with a particular focus on the labour movement, electoral politics, health care, and issues of economic, social, and environmental justice.

Our team is an incredible group of progressives who have all chosen to work at Point Blank for the same reason it was founded: to help progressive organizations build effective tools, winning campaigns, and game-changing movements. We’re proud to say that our 50+ staff hail from 8+ countries, speak 6+ languages, 64% are women, non-binary or gender non-conforming —and we have BIPOC & 2SLGBTQIA+ across the agency.

You’ll support their work overseeing everything we do at Point Blank, as well as assisting with internal company operations and administration.

Here’s a bit more about them:
Ash has been with Point Blank for more than seven years, directing most of our major campaigns and overseeing and growing the business. Ash brings world-class public narrative, stakeholder management, and community organizing capabilities gleaned from her work as a teaching fellow at Harvard with Marshall Ganz, the legendary organizer behind Barack Obama’s winning 2008 campaign, and Hoggan and Associates, an award-winning crisis management and stakeholder engagement firm.
