Outreach and Partnerships Coordinator

About the Role We're looking for a friendly, organized go-getter to our marketing and PR Firm as our outreach and partnerships coordinator. This is a relationship-opening role, not a closing role. You'll be the warm, professional first point of contact - reaching out, sparking interest, and getting the conversation started. Once someone's engaged and ready to talk specifics, you'll hand the relationship off to our founder to carry it forward. If you love the thrill of a great first message, aren't afraid of a "no," and want a role where your outreach instincts are the whole job, we'd love to hear from you. What You'll Do - Partnership outreach: Identify and reach out to potential partners (agencies, complementary service providers, industry contacts) to explore collaboration opportunities - Media outreach: Research relevant journalists, editors, and outlets, and send tailored pitches on behalf of our clients - Track everything: Keep outreach organize so nothing falls through the cracks - Hand off warm leads: Once a partner or journalist is interested and ready for a real conversation, loop in our founder to take it from there What We're Looking For: - Some real-world experience with outreach — cold email, LinkedIn prospecting, partnership development, or similar - PR or media pitching experience is a big plus, but not required - Comfortable writing warm, personalized messages (not templates that sound like templates) - Organized and self-directed — you don't need someone checking in on you daily - Genuinely curious about people and good at sparking a first conversation What to Include When You Apply: - We'd love to hear about your experience in both areas, even if it's light in one: - Your outreach experience — What kind of outreach have you done (partnerships, sales, business development, cold email, etc.)? What worked? - Your PR experience — Have you pitched media before? What outlets or types of stories? - A quick example of a cold outreach message you're proud of (partnership or media — either is great!) Thanks so much!
