Every campaign includes Strategy, Staffing, and Project Management. As we grow we’re going to be looking for top performers who stand out and demonstrate strong leadership abilities. These individuals will be offered fast-track career progression opportunities where they’ll be cross-trained and could advance from an entry-level position to a management position within their first year!
Hours, Pay & Benefits:
This position will require full-time hours (40-55 hours depending on the week). You’ll receive a weekly salary plus bonuses and commissions. Average first-year earnings are $33,600-$45,600, but these are uncapped and we have seen PR & Communications Assistants take home $65k+ their first year!

- Customer-facing work experience is also highly recommended. Although we provide training, it is helpful if you’ve worked in retail, hospitality, customer service, or similar roles before
- We’re looking to get people started ASAP so we don’t have to put any campaigns on hold. Please only send in an application if you’re able to start within 2 weeks
