PR Manager
Master Storyteller | Media Megaphone
Are you a natural storyteller who loves building relationships? We’re looking for an energetic and engaging co-star to help us spread the word about our clients. Instead of being a cog in a big-agency wheel, we’re looking for a new family member who wants to stretch professionally. Are you a people-person who loves making connections? Do you see yourself as a detailed-oriented writer who can see story ideas from a variety of angles? Do you love organizing the crazy in the quickly changing media landscape? Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment surrounded by other passionate creatives? If so, we’d love to hear from you.
The Role of Our PR Manager
SPARK Strategic Ideas is seeking a public relations manager to help us get publicity for a variety of clients—from restaurants and retailers to real estate and B2B businesses. You’ll create annual plans, develop innovative ideas, and manage multiple projects. You’ll pull media databases using Cision, brainstorm story angles, write news releases, develop content, and pitch ideas to local, regional and national media outlets. You’ll plan and host media events such as grand opening sneak peeks, menu launches and business celebrations and occasionally provide media training and crisis support. You’ll help position our clients as the experts they are. And, to show off all of your success, you will track media placements with coverage reports.
About SPARK Strategic Ideas
SPARK’s mission is simple: To grow businesses, people and ideas. Our agency philosophy is to hire smart people that we like being around who are experts in what they do. We bring together a tribe of specialists to offer strategic planning, advertising, marketing, public relations, social media and digital services. Simply put, we love what we do and who we do it with. We have a strict “no meanies” policy—we know that even if a client has a large budget, it’s not worth it if you can’t enjoy the ride.
We’re busy—things are really cranking up around here, so we’re looking for a PR Manager who is a team player ready for adventure. We offer big agency service but have small agency appeal. Our best feature is our people. Hands down, that’s what we hear when we ask employees what is their favorite thing about working at SPARK. From bi-monthly team buildings to quarterly lunch ‘n learns, we enjoy being together and working together to grow our clients’ businesses and each other.
