You have a passion for creating unique narratives to reach a wide range of audiences and your media diet includes everything from The Today Show to the NYT Styles section, and Buzzfeed to People Magazine.

• Partnering with senior managers on achieving deliverables for a full roster of clients (average of 4 – 6).
• Managing media contact lists to build relationships with new publications and media contacts.
• Participating in new business meetings, creating proposals as needed.
• Regularly bringing new opportunities for clients – media meetings, key introductions, etc.
• Proactively mentor and teach junior team members on account teams
• Working with senior management to respond to client requests and ensure requests are taken care of in an efficient manner.

• You have an innate curiosity and an entrepreneurial spirit.
