Get AI-powered advice on this job and more exclusive features.

Are you looking to establish or grow your career in public relations? Does the idea of working with cutting‑edge tech companies excite you? Are you a connoisseur of well‑chosen GIFs?

If so, you might be a fit for our team; we’re looking for a public relations professional to join us at the Account Coordinator or Account Executive level.

The Bulleit Group is a public relations and narrative systems consultancy that builds communications infrastructure for technology companies (often B2B, sometimes B2C). In 2025, we were named one of PRovoke Media's Agencies of the Year and earned five SABRE category wins. We partner with venture‑backed startups, growth‑stage companies, established technology brands, and venture capital firms to deliver messaging frameworks, media strategies, thought leadership, content development, social media strategies, crisis communications, and AI‑optimized visibility reporting. Our sector experience includes artificial intelligence, aerospace, engineering communications, defense tech, climate tech, logistics, and fintech.

Skills we’re looking for

• Extremely precise attention to detail. You noticed the typo in the preceding paragraph and it bugged you.
• Ability to manage multiple competing priorities and tasks, on deadline, without anything slipping through the cracks.
• Strong time management and the self‑motivation to work independently when needed.
• Ability to communicate effectively, in writing or orally, to a variety of stakeholders— from other BG team members to client CEOs.
• Desire to be intellectually challenged on a daily basis; the idea of constant learning excites you, rather than intimidating you.
• Familiarity with the basics of media relations: understanding how to monitor a news cycle, research reporters to build a media list, craft a compelling pitch, and secure coverage. Bonus points if you can share an example of a media hit you’ve earned!
• Ability to not only learn fairly technical material, but also translate it for nontechnical audiences… and to enjoy the process (we don’t expect you to come in knowing everything, but we expect you to be willing and happy to learn!).
• Ability to detect patterns, connect dots, and create narrative throughlines to draft content that supports our clients’ business goals.
• Big participation energy: communicate with your team, have fun with us, ask for help early and often.
• Ability to use and quickly familiarize yourself with productivity and organizational tools, including Google Workspace (Sheets, Docs, Drive), Slack, and trackers such as Monday or Notion.

Tasks you’ll be doing

• Building agendas for meetings with clients, tracking completion of weekly action items, updating client coverage and activity trackers, and other administrative duties.
• Monitoring the media landscape for relevant opportunities for our clients to engage in trending news cycles.
• Researching and building media lists.
• Researching and building lists of relevant awards or industry events for our clients, and helping manage submissions.
• Evaluating inbound opportunities (media inquiries, events, awards) and providing a strategic recommendation on whether to pursue them, based on our clients’ needs.
• Drafting and sending media pitches, with the goal of securing coverage for clients.
• Supporting our content team by sometimes editing or drafting copy, ranging from blog posts to press releases to social media posts.
• Contributing to creation of client messaging materials—diving deeply into their industry, cross‑referencing competitor positioning, considering possible media angles, and synthesizing everything to help create effective client messaging frameworks.
• Actively contributing to internal team brainstorms for new media angles, content ideas, and overall programmatic adjustments.

We’re probably not your cup of tea (and that’s okay!) if:

• You’ve never gone down a Wikipedia rabbit hole—we do a lot of self‑learning to provide the best possible PR support for clients in very technical industries.
• You are completely ambivalent about the Oxford comma.
• You don’t feel a slight pang of frustration and remorse if you get a question wrong at Trivia Night.
• The idea of checking in with your boss, because they said they’d have something to the client by noon and it’s now 12:30 p.m., scares you.
• You need the routine of going to an office every day to get your work done.
• You don’t like receiving constructive feedback (or giving it).
• You need a very rigid work schedule (strictly 9‑5 every day) or you want to work a super flexible schedule (like 3 a.m. – 11 a.m.) that’s outside of typical client relations hours.
• You think administrative tasks like updating activity trackers and results dashboards are boring and pointless.
• You dislike Slack‑based office banter, friendly coworker competition via fantasy football leagues, or seeing regular photos/videos of coworkers’ pets.
• Work from home monthly stipend
• Casual culture and continuous opportunity for growth
• Company issued office equipment (Macbook laptop, second monitor, keyboard, and mouse)
• Occasional travel and virtual events
• Competitive benefits (healthcare, dental, vision and 401(k))

If these feel like relatable checklists (and if checklists are your thing), please submit a one‑page resume and a short cover letter, including the following, to View email address on us.fitly.work :

• A link to a press release, blog post, or op‑ed you’ve written
• Bonus points for a link to a media article you’ve helped place for a client and a brief explanation of your role in earning it
• A brief description of something sciencey or technical that really blows your mind, and why you think it’s so cool
• A literature, pop‑culture‑based, or other fun sorting that describes you (Are you a Ravenclaw? Would you be House Stark? A water bender? Lawful good? ESTP?)
