Media Relations Manager

Strauss Media Strategies is looking for a media relations professional to join growing team of experts. The individual will work with team members across the country on projects ranging from tech to environmental to book authors to automotive and beyond. Our clients range from independent book authors to global technology firms, from small non-profits to US government agencies. The successful candidate will be tasked with counseling clients on developing winning broadcast strategies, creating a path forward, pitching journalists, and tracking results.

Our firm brings over a quarter-century of experience as a leading public relations and strategy firm specializing in broadcast media relations. Working on behalf of top-tier clients, we bring a solid team of professionals to the table to deliver on industry leading results. We provide subsidized health insurance, a profit-sharing plan for staff retained over a year, vacation time and fun holiday parties.

The ideal candidate will come with some experience phone and email pitching media outlets, or similar professional experience that translates. They will also have the ability to understand a wide array of topics, both complex and straightforward to draw out the most compelling news stories worth putting on air.

Candidates with a newsroom background are encouraged to apply, even if they do not have a pitching background. The firm values the ability and skill needed to craft a verbal and written pitch, and we believe that folks who have worked in radio and TV newsrooms bring something special to the table. Ideally, you would have been on the receiving end of pitches from publicists, agencies and other PR folks.

A superior comfort level on the phone is critical, as you will be working with team members in various locations, as well as with clients and members of the media across the country. Experience with general audio and video editing as well as with the Adobe and Microsoft Office Suites of software is appreciated. Some travel may be required – maybe 5% depending on client/project needs. Spanish language skills are a huge plus.

Ideally based in the Washington, DC area, we will also consider quality candidates in any part of the country. You should be a self-starter, adaptable, friendly and a problem solver.
