Longtime Capitol Hill Chief of Staff and Press Secretary Dan Scandling has joined Ogilvy Washington as senior vice president for corporate and public affairs. As part of the D.C.-based corporate and public affairs group, Scandling will work with clients to increase their media profile in the D.C. media market, manage their social media advocacy, and reputations inside and outside the Beltway.
“Over the past 20 years, Dan has advised two senior members of Congress and served as their official spokesperson dealing daily with national and international media. He also managed 11 Congressional campaigns,” said Robert Mathias, CEO of North America. “His combined understanding of the Hill, Washington media, and reputation management makes him a tremendous asset to Ogilvy and to our clients.”
Scandling has extensive media, communications, public relations, legislative and campaign experience, serving as Chief of Staff and Communications Director for two senior Members of Congress for nearly 25 years. He worked for Rep. Frank Wolf (R-Northern Virginia) from 2000 – 2014 and the late Herb Bateman (R-Tidewater, Virginia) from 1990-2000.
