Responsibilities

• Own PR and influencer marketing end to end.
• Build and maintain relationships with journalists, podcast hosts, and industry voices who cover B2B SaaS, tech, and AI.
• Live inside tech Twitter/X and the influencers driving the AI and B2B conversation, catching trends early enough to bring our CEO a specific way to get into them while they’re active.
• Turn launches into sequenced drumbeats, coordinating events, podcasts, press, and content so each moment builds on the last
• Prep and coach our executives for press interviews, podcasts, and speaking opportunities, sharpening the story they tell as much as booking the calendar
• Identify and run influencer, creator, and customer partnerships, from first outreach through content and distribution
• Track coverage and share of voice — where Planhat is (and isn't) showing up in the conversations our buyers are having — and use it to decide what to pitch next
• Brief and direct any outside PR agencies we bring in, so what they pitch matches our story and their placements actually land

Requirements

• Experience: 6–9 years running press, PR, or influencer programs in-house at a B2B SaaS or tech company, with real placements and relationships you can point to.
• Media instinct: A sense for what's actually newsworthy and the craft to write a pitch that can cut through the noise.
• Relationship builder: You invest time in building relationships with journalists, podcast hosts, and influencers for the long term.
• AI fluency: Comfortable using AI tools to move faster on research, drafting, and monitoring, and building repeatable systems with them rather than starting from zero every time.
• Executive-ready: Comfortable coaching executives and other non-marketers to sound like themselves in interviews and on stage.
• Ownership: Comfortable being the first person to build a function from nothing with no existing playbook or team to lean on.
