Kessler PR Group Is Hiring an Account Director

Kessler PR is an award-winning, highly regarded public relations firm specializing in crisis communications, reputation management, litigation support and media relations. Our public and private clientele includes high-profile individuals; Fortune 100 corporations; schools, colleges and universities; religious institutions; healthcare systems, arts organizations, municipal, county and state governments; politicians and elected officials; professional sports teams and athletes, and national and regional nonprofits.

While our office is in Central New Jersey, our clients hail from across the region, nation, and world. They face challenging issues that frequently become front page news and often involve litigation.

In-depth research skills are highly valued and a clean, expressive writing style is a must. We are a tight knit, highly collaborative, mutually supportive team that frowns on office intrigue and thrives on humor.

The position is full-time and hybrid, with at least several days in the office. Compensation is commensurate with experience, but generally above industry standards. Benefits are generous.

•      Meet with and support Firm clients

•      Write and edit strategic communications, social media copy, and occasional press releases

Desirable Skills and Attributes

•      Social Media expertise across major platforms: Up-to-date on trends, messaging techniques and best practices, with an understanding of algorithms and how best to use them to benefit clients

•      A political junkie and committed follower of political news, outlets and journalists – particularly New Jersey local and regional

•      An avid consumer of general-interest local, state, regional and national news

•      Knowledge of law firms, legal publications/journalists

•      Strong writing, editing (including web content), social media and online research skills

•      Discretion, maturity, and highly developed business/professional social skills

•      Comfortably able to quickly shift gears while juggling multiple tasks, initiatives, and projects
