Small Girls PR is growing and we are looking for an Associate Account Executive within our fast growing west coast office focusing on a range of exciting consumer brands across the fashion, tech, fitness, and lifestyle spaces!
An Associate Account Executive is the foundation of the support infrastructure at Small Girls PR, furnishing documents, call notes, and organizational systems to keep accounts running smoothly. As an AAE, you will contribute to and impact media relations efforts, actively providing ideas and action items and serving as one of the lead pitching participants on the team.
There is no one-size-fits-all for an SGPR client which means your career will be further enriched with meaningful and diversified experience. We've handled mergers for GE, announced Esusu as one of the first Black-owned tech unicorns, created a closet calculator to see how recycled clothing impacts the environment with thredUP, and this team specifically tapped the Green M&M as Zappos' newest "shoefluencer" ahead of the Super Bowl, when M&M's spokescandies were put on hiatus.
Note: Small Girls PR is currently in the office on a hybrid basis, working two days a week in our LA office.
How you'll make an impact: - Draft creative pitch angles that position client's uniquely from their competitor set and yield feature-length stories
- Establish and maintain warm relationships with both business and consumer media
- Come prepared to brainstorms with original campaign concepts and stunt ideas that would drive preferred messaging on behalf of our brands
- Keep the team organized by gatekeeping the monthly activity reports, weekly call agendas + recap notes, and by assisting with wrap reports & decks as needed
- Pulse search engines, alerts and social media to ensure all client placements and mentions are monitored, measured, captured and interpreted
- Periodically share your team's learnings at company-wide all hands
Why we'll love you: - You have at least 1-2 years of post-grad experience within the media relations, corporate communications, or public relations space. Noting this role is not entry level / for 2024 graduates
- Your passion for error-free work; you double check every detail and spot a typo a mile away
- You've already secured top-tier press placements and have the clips to prove it
- You have a strong passion for following trends, culture and media and are obsessed with pop culture and entertainment news!
Why you'll love us: - Atypical Time: a generous PTO plan that scales with tenure in addition to Summer Fridays, Day of Rests for mental health, Caregiving days, and time off for Unsick Days dedicated to preventative care.
- Dedicated Time Each Day for Deep Work: Our unique Smalls In Sync program carves out daily time for you to collaborate with colleagues as well as have the space to get your strategic, solo work done.
- We invest in you: We have 100% employer covered medical leave, contribute to your 401k (whether you decide to contribute or not), in addition to contributing towards your gym memberships, dental, vision, data plans / home WiFi, and daily commute. We budget for you to network each month as well as reimburse professional development as it applies to roles, from InDesign to public speaking.
- A strong culture: We have an employee-led committee that determines company policy together and another dedicated to planning our weekly celebrations and quarterly outings (virtual or otherwise), book clubs and employee-coached trivia & intramural activities, a pet-friendly office when we're not remote, a penchant for karaoke, and we've even taken our staff on vacations overseas.
