PR Daily Reporter
Remote
Full Time
Mid Level
Location: New York City, Washington, D.C. or Chicago preferred
Salary: $60k-$75k
Job Type: Full-time, remote
PR Daily, part of Ragan Communications, seeks a reporter and content with a passion for educating audiences.
We’re a media company with a service-based mission, and we work to bring the best professional development and relevant news to public relations, external communications and social media professionals in a way that’s approachable, engaging and useful. We aren’t looking for scoops on which agency landed what account — we're looking for stories on how they pulled off that cool campaign, how to better measure PR efforts, what AI means for the future of our profession and what we can learn from all of the above.
In a typical week, you might write up an interview with the CCO of a Fortune 100 company, dream up a session for our latest conference, grab a coffee with the head of an agency division and scour news sites for the biggest stories with a PR slant for The Daily Scoop. You’ll work with a scrappy team of editors, writers and conference producers in a supportive remote environment.
Responsibilities include:
Location
Fully remote, but near a major PR hub to better facilitate sourcing. Preferred cities include but are not limited to New York City, Washington, D.C., and Chicago.
Travel required about five times a year to attend PR Daily conferences, awards events and team-building activities.
Experience
At least five years of experience as a reporter, or a combination of reporting and PR experience.
Benefits And Perks of Working at Ragan
Our core values – Connection, Curiosity, Innovation, and Integrity – guide all we do and help define what’s important to us at Ragan.
