  • Draft agendas and recaps for all client calls and meetings
  • Create and maintain media lists and coverage reports
  • Maintain records and organize photo archives.
  • Work with the team to build weekly/monthly status reports for clients.
  • Daily social media monitoring of your assigned accounts.

Please apply if you…

  • have a Bachelor's in Writing, Journalism, Communication, or Media Studies.
  • have 3 - 5 years of relevant working experience in a strategic, creative agency, or fast-moving startup environment.
  • are extremely detail-oriented, organized, and able to keep the bigger picture in mind.
  • have exceptional written and verbal communication skills — copywriting experience is a plus.
  • are a creative problem solver, and can juggle different things at once.
  • have the ability to work independently and in a dynamic, high energy, atmosphere.
  • have a roll-up-your-sleeves attitude.
