About the Role

As a Senior Public Relations Manager you’ll serve as a hands-on storyteller who orchestrates our media relations and thought leadership strategy end-to-end.

• Agility & News Judgment: Sound news judgment and the ability to operate calmly under pressure to handle reactive, sensitive communications and fast-moving industry trends.
• Analytical & AI Literacy: Demonstrated ability to explain PR impact with data (coverage quality, share of voice) alongside curiosity and experience leveraging modern AI tools, LLMs, or automated workflows for operational efficiency and social listening.
• Relationship Building: Strong existing network (or proven ability to build relationships quickly) with reporters and influencers, coupled with a collaborative style that earns trust from internal executives and subject matter experts.
• Flexibility for On-Site Engagement: Willingness and ability to travel as needed for team and company gatherings; a strong preference to candidates that are located near our Bellevue or Chicago offices.
