We immerse ourselves in client storytelling, delivering smart and insightful counsels, along with the program execution, that generates results.

  • Mentoring and managing junior team members’ involvement in projects and initiative
  • Participating in new business opportunities – i.e. assisting with research, creation of media playbooks or SOV analyses, etc.


Along with creativity, drive and self-motivation, your previous experience and attributes will include:

  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent relevant business experience
  • 2-3 years of post-college PR agency experience, preferably working with consumer clients
  • Strong understanding of media landscape and a desire to drive media relations results across all accounts
