About you…
You are in the know with all things media! You have existing relationships and you know who covers what, what stories they tell and how to stand out in their inbox.
You are passionate about reading the latest news from all corners of the world – from technology to business and geopolitical to domestic politics and always looking to understand what is driving the current conversation.
You understand the ins and outs of a news cycle and love to work with clients on not only how to enter the conversation, but when.
You view journalists as colleagues and understand it’s a relationship that only succeeds by building trust and being a good partner.
You're ultimately a storyteller at heart, roll up your sleeves, whatever it takes, team player.
No job is too big or too small. It's all about the creative process and pushing client brands to their full potential.
