Responsibilities

• Own Bloomerang’s earned media strategy, building a proactive pipeline that turns product launches, data, and research findings into pitch-ready stories instead of waiting for news to react to.
• Own media relations and pitching across tier , tech and nonprofit trade press, building and maintaining direct relationships with reporters who cover the sector and news related to our industry.
• Evaluate outlet and placement opportunities through both traditional SOV impact and AI-citation visibility (GEO/AEO), adjusting pitch strategy as the two increasingly diverge.
• Write and place bylines, op-eds, and press releases, working directly with executives to translate their point of view into pitch-ready copy.
• Manage trendjacking response, moving quickly when news cycles create an opening for Bloomerang's point of view.
• Manage the awards submission calendar, collaborating with internal stakeholders to gather submission materials and write successful applications.
• Own earned media reporting, tracking placements, share of voice, and coverage quality, and separating earned coverage from any paid or sponsored activity in every report.
• Manage podcast and Substack pitching and placements as owned-channel extensions of the earned media strategy.
• Use AI tools to scale pitch personalization, monitor media opportunities in real time, and speed up first drafts of bylines and award submissions, while maintaining brand voice and editorial quality.

Requirements

• 8+ years of experience in public relations or media relations, ideally with in-house or agency experience in B2B, SaaS, or technology.
• A track record of securing earned media placements, judging which stories are worth pursuing before pitching them.
• Established relationships with journalists and editors covering technology, SaaS, or the nonprofit sector.
• Strong writing skills across formats: pitches, bylines, op-eds, and press releases.
• Comfort operating with same-day speed on trendjacking and reactive media opportunities.
• Familiarity with AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude) and their application to pitch personalization, media monitoring, and content drafting, with the judgment to know when a human relationship, not an AI draft, is what closes the placement.
• Experience managing an awards submission calendar and podcast placement pipeline.
• Experience working directly with C-suite executives to shape and pitch their point of view, translating their priorities and voice into media-ready angles under real deadline pressure.

Preferred

• Bachelor's degree in Communications, Journalism, Marketing, or a related field.
