Обязанности
- We're looking for a Head of Public Relations to own how is understood in the market. Reporting directly to our CEO, you'll build our earned media program from the ground up — the narrative, the reporter relationships, and the cadence of coverage that makes a named leader in AI-powered wealth management. You'll also build the capability we need on the days the news is not ours to choose: a crisis and issues function that lets a fast-moving, SEC-registered firm respond quickly, accurately, and within the rules. This is a builder's seat with founder-level visibility and real consequence.
- We're excited to hire this role at 's Headquarters in McLean, VA or our NYC location. All of our positions follow an in-office schedule Monday through Friday, allowing you to collaborate directly with your team. If you're not currently based here, but love what you see, let's discuss relocation options as part of your journey to joining us.
- Own 's external narrative end to end — build the message house, the fact base, and the boilerplate that everyone from Sales to Recruiting works from.
- Build and personally carry relationships with the reporters covering fintech, wealth management, AI, and personal finance, and turn them into sustained coverage that does not depend on funding announcements.
- Run announcement strategy for funding, product, partnership, and people news — including embargoes, exclusives, and the lead time that lets Compliance review real work rather than a fire drill.
- Stand up our crisis and issues management capability: severity tiers, named owners, pre-cleared holding statements, escalation paths, and tabletop exercises with leadership.
- Partner with Compliance and Legal to build a communications review standard that is fast enough to use and rigorous enough for an SEC-registered investment adviser — including how we substantiate the claims we make about AI and performance.
- Prepare and protect our spokespeople: media training, briefing documents, and a bench deep enough that the founders are not the only voice.
- Own the agency relationship, budget, and performance, and build the measurement — share of voice, message pull-through, coverage quality — that tells leadership whether any of it is working.
