This position reports to the Senior Vice President, Communications, but also works closely with the two department Senior Directors, Science and Government Relations departments, and the association’s President. It’s a friendly, metro-accessible work environment, offering excellent benefits.
Job Responsibilities: We’re seeking someone with 2-3 years’ experience at a public relations agency who thrives on that hectic agency work ethic but would prefer to focus on one “client” and more “normal” hours.

There will be plenty of projects for which you’ll have ownership, in the areas of publicity, industry trade relations, social media/digital content, rapid response, our annual conference, and more. We’ll expect you can write—quickly, concisely, creatively, and on message. Because we are a small staff, your daily responsibilities will also include some administrative/logistical work, i.e., maintaining press lists/contacts and daily media clips; logistics coordination for meetings; and general administrative support, as needed.
Additional Requirements: College degree required. Must have a minimum of two years at a PR agency or in an Association’s Communications department; strong technical skills; professional and poised demeanor; strong work ethic; ability to work quickly, juggle projects and meet deadlines.
