BLN24 is an award-winning Management Consulting Firm that supports the U.S. Federal Government in successfully achieving their mission and goals. Our service and solutions delivery start with understanding each client’s end-state, and then seamlessly integrating within each Agency’s organization to improve and enhance strategic and technical operations and deployments.

Primary Responsibilities:
  • Develop and execute public-affairs strategies supporting WRNMMC’s mission, services, and initiatives.
  • Write and edit press releases, talking points, newsletters, speeches, briefings, web content, and social media products.
  • Respond to media inquiries, coordinate interviews, arrange media visits, and maintain media relationships.
  • Develop internal and external messaging for patients, staff, leaders, partners, and the public.
  • Monitor media coverage and assess public-affairs and campaign effectiveness.
  • Plan press conferences, media briefings, community events, and engagement activities.
  • Support crisis communications and time-sensitive issues that may receive national, congressional, or public attention.
  • Update internal and external websites and social media channels.
  • Participate in WRNMMC, NCR, MTF, and DHA communications meetings.
  • Develop communications plans, operations plans, community-relations plans, and measurable outreach activities.
  • Coordinate message dissemination with DHA, MTF, federal, military, veteran, healthcare, and community stakeholders.
  • Provide strategic counsel to senior leaders.
  • Maintain issue logs, trackers, weekly reporting, and editorial ideas.
 
Required Qualifications
  • Bachelor’s degree in Communications, Public Relations, Project Management, or a related field.
  • At least five years of public affairs, public relations, project management, or combined experience.
  • Strong written and oral communications skills.
  • Experience tailoring information for diverse internal and external audiences.
  • Ability to manage multiple concurrent projects in a high-tempo environment.
  • Experience with project-management and digital-communications tools.
  • Strong stakeholder, interview, media-relations, and consensus-building skills.
  • Healthcare-system or military-communications familiarity is highly desirable.
  • Preferred Qualification
  • Project Management Professional certification.
