ABOUT QUADRANT STRATEGIES

Quadrant Strategies is a research-driven consultancy that works with Fortune 100 companies, and a select number of major NGOs. Our specialty is helping companies facing significant challenges to their reputation or brand, or even full-blown crises. We help them pivot from defense to offense – to a place where they can move the brand and business forward. We do this using carefully crafted research to create the strategy and tactics for dealing with the short-term challenges and then determining what the company’s story should be for the long-term.

Quadrant Strategies was founded on a clear principle: clients need strategic counsel, not just data.  Our partners are former political and corporate pollsters and strategists who have advised more than 25 of the Fortune 50 on some of the highest profile corporate and public affairs issues of the last two decades.

While our office is based in Washington, DC, this position will be remote due to the COVID-19 pandemic. All candidates must be authorized to work in the United States. Quadrant Strategies is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
