Quick Summary
Lead Perk's day-to-day PR activity from proactive pitching and newsjacking to reactive press office and crisis communications.
About the Role
~1 min readWe're looking for a seasoned Senior PR Manager to own Perk's US and UK media presence. This is a high-impact role at the heart of one of our most important strategic priorities: establishing Perk as a leading voice in major business and financial press.
Both markets are fast-growing for Perk, and cutting through in either requires deep journalist relationships, a sharp corporate narrative, and someone who can work at the pace of a major news cycle. You'll be the on-the-ground force behind our Tier 1 media strategy, shaping how our executives show up in the press and building the kind of earned presence no paid campaign can replicate.
This is a role for a natural communicator who understands the nuance of financial and business media, can translate complex tech and AI narratives into compelling stories, and knows how to get a C-suite executive ready for a Bloomberg interview on short notice.
