## About the role

As our founding PR & Communications hire, you will build and own our earned media function—shaping the stories we tell, the channels we use, and the voices that represent us. This foundational role requires a nuanced media strategy, relying on strong relationships across business, trade, creator, technology, and consumer media.

## What they're looking for

- Media Relationships: Strong relationships in at least two of these areas: business and trade, creator and technology, or consumer and lifestyle
- Editorial Judgment: A strong instinct for what makes a story timely, relevant, and credible
- Brand Judgment & Taste: Strong instincts for whether a story is not only timely and relevant, but right for our brand, reflecting what we stand for and the level of taste and cultural credibility we want to be known for
- Writing Excellence: An exceptional writer across pitches, executive briefs, quotes, bylines, and social content
- Strategic Operator: Able to set strategy while remaining hands-on with pitching, writing, and relationship development
