  • Oversee press releases, award submissions, rankings, surveys, announcements, and executive communications
  • Manage and mentor an internal communications and social media team
  • Build and maintain editorial calendars aligned with firmwide and market-specific priorities
  • Provide media coaching and communications guidance to senior leadership and subject matter experts
  • Support crisis communications strategy and response initiatives when needed
  • Create reporting and analytics around media placements, awards, visibility, and PR performance metrics
  • Identify opportunities for process improvement and communications innovation across the organization

What We’re Looking For

  • 10+ years of public relations and communications experience
  • Previous management or team leadership experience
  • Strong background within an Am Law, large law firm, or highly sophisticated professional services environment strongly preferred
  • Exceptional writing, editing, and verbal communication skills
  • Experience managing executive communications and high-profile media interactions
  • Strong business acumen and ability to align PR strategy with organizational objectives
  • Experience with media monitoring/tracking tools such as Meltwater, Trendkite, or similar platforms
  • Proven ability to manage multiple high-priority projects in a fast-paced environment
  • Strong presentation, project management, and stakeholder management skills
  • Comfortable operating as both a strategic leader and hands-on contributor
  • Tech-savvy and AI-curious mindset preferred

Why This Opportunity

  • Highly visible leadership role with direct executive exposure
  • Opportunity to shape and elevate a nationally recognized brand
  • Collaborative, high-performing culture
  • Significant ownership, autonomy, and strategic influence
  • Competitive compensation and long-term growth potential

While this is a 100% remote opportunity, qualified candidates should currently reside in — or be open to relocating to — Atlanta, Chicago, New York, or Washington DC.
