Account Manager or Senior Account Manager (Tech PR) - Remote

Want to work at one of the hottest tech PR agencies and do the things that you haven’t had a chance to do in your current job–without having to work crazy hours? We’re looking for an Account Manager who doesn’t want to be a small cog in a big agency. You’re passionate about technology and want to help great companies succeed. Yet work life balance is important to you so you appreciate Friday afternoons off, a reasonable limit to the number of accounts you’re on and to work in a fun environment.

You should have at least a four to five year track record of placing technology companies in the trade and business press; or at least three years of experience as a tech reporter/editor.

Karbo Com is a respected, award-winning boutique agency that’s known for doing great work. We team with all types of tech companies from stealth startups to big brands. Our current clients include Internet of Things (IoT) giants TDK and RTI, Logitech and exciting startups. Our agency is the perfect place if you want a team-oriented, positive and supportive environment where you can help shape the agency and your future. We’re in the best part of SOMA–within two blocks of South Park, transportation and Oracle Park. Our Redwood City office is just across the street from the CalTrain station with quick access to Redwood City’s trendy downtown.  We currently work remotely four days a week and in the office one day a week if in the Bay Area.  This position also has the potential to be 100% remote outside the Bay Area.
