• Event planning and on-site coordination
• Research and analysis to inform strategy
• Crisis communications and issues management support
• Strategic communications planning and consulting

• Strong writing, editing, and storytelling skills
• Ability to work independently, manage deadlines, and deliver high-quality work on time
• Professionalism and adaptability in working with diverse clients and industries
• Proficiency with communications tools and platforms; familiarity with emerging technologies and AI applications is a plus
• Bachelor’s degree in PR, communications, journalism or related field preferred
