Account Executive

Public Relations Account Executive

At Giant Noise, we help brands break through the noise through thoughtful storytelling, strong media relationships, and creative campaigns that drive real results. We're looking for a Public Relations Account Executive to drive day-to-day media relations, craft compelling stories, and help keep momentum strong across a portfolio of clients in hospitality, food & beverage, lifestyle, travel, and consumer brands.

This role is ideal for someone who loves pitching and building media relationships, writes with confidence, thrives in a fast-paced agency environment, and is ready to take real ownership of accounts while growing toward senior-level strategy and leadership. Note: This is a hybrid role based in San Antonio, Texas, with two days per week in our office plus on-site client events and activations as needed. Our ideal candidate lives in San Antonio (or is excited to relocate) and wants to plant roots here—in the city and with our team—for the long term.

Mentor & Keep Things Moving

• Delegate work to Account Coordinators and interns while supporting quality control
• Provide mentorship, feedback, and day-to-day support to junior team members
• Track time accurately and proactively flag potential scope concerns

What You Bring

• Bachelor's degree in Public Relations, Journalism, Communications, Marketing, or a related field
• 2–4 years of public relations, communications, or agency experience
• Experience supporting multiple client accounts in a fast-paced agency or client-service environment
