You bring with you...

• Experience forging new relationships with journalists by understanding their beats, their needs, and how to meet them.
• The ability to quickly onboard, process, and message complex issues.

• An understanding that speed is essential in effectively shaping the media conversation – but also an understanding that the most important determinant of the success of rapid response outreach is less rushing without purpose and more insightful planning.

In this role, you will grow and expand your expertise by...

You will know you are successful if...

• You are able to answer inquiries and understand and explain the broader context in which we operate.
