Own PR, earned media, events, and owned channels (LinkedIn, X, Meta, YouTube) to build brand awareness and pipeline. Drive narrative strategy, media relationships, and integrated events calendar.
About the job
PR & Earned Media
- Build PR to be proactive and narrative-driven, tied directly to a thought-leadership and research pipeline.
- Own executive and journalist prep and implement post-mortems after every major press cycle.
- Develop and maintain strong media and journalist relationships; bring an extensive publisher and press network to the role from day one.
- Craft press-worthy storylines from product narratives - go beyond the press release to drive stories that shape category conversation.
Events Strategy & Execution
- Own and execute end-to-end the integrated events and comms calendar: priority industry events, owned activations, speaking opportunities, and sponsorships.
- Coordinate with Demand Gen and Content to ensure every event activation drives measurable lead-gen and brand impact.
- Manage vendors and production partners to deliver exceptional event experiences on time and on budget.
Owned Channels & Brand Voice
- Own Agentio’s voice and content strategy across owned channels: LinkedIn, X, Meta, and YouTube.
- Ensure a consistent, compelling brand presence that builds credibility with marketers and creators alike.
- Partner with PMM and Demand Gen to align owned channel output with the broader content and campaign calendar.
Requirements
- Proven experience using comms as a brand-building lever: You’ve used PR, earned media, and owned channels as strategic tools—not just tactical outputs—to build brand credibility and market position.
- Strategic B2B comms professional with strong agency management: You know how to evaluate, brief, and hold agencies accountable; you get the most out of external partners.
- Launch comms expertise: You can build a compelling press narrative from a product story, not just write a press release. You bring an extensive media and publisher network to activate.
- Editorial rigor and attention to detail: You understand the reputational stakes of inaccurate claims in ad-tech and AI, and you hold every piece of external communication to the highest standard.
- Events ownership: Comfortable owning events strategy and logistics/execution, or managing a vendor to do so, with a clear line to pipeline and brand impact.
- 7+ years of B2B communications experience with a track record of building brand through earned and owned channels.
- Exceptional ability to learn quickly, pivot effectively, and deliver high-quality work on tight timelines.
- A deep obsession with using AI tools and LLMs to gain 10x leverage and automate previously-manual tasks.
Nice-to-Haves

- Entrepreneurial mindset, able to balance speed with strategy.
- Laser-focused on outcomes—you measure comms success in brand impact and pipeline, not just impressions.
