PR Manager | Senior

What we're building

We need someone who can work with media hands-on: build relationships, react quickly to relevant news cycles, and turn product context into placements, comments, and stories.

A large part of the work will involve liberal Russian-speaking and international media, especially outlets operating from outside Russia. Taste, speed, and judgment all matter here.

What we're looking for

Core Requirements

• - Fluent Russian and English ( B2+ )
• - 4+ years in PR, media relations, or editorial special projects
• - A proven publication track record with concrete case studies
• - Excellent written and verbal communication
• - Ability to prepare comments quickly against a live news agenda
• - Good understanding of how media organizations decide what to publish

Nice-to-have

• - Existing journalist or editor relationships
• - Experience relevant to digital products
• - Experience developing a PR strategy for digital products

What you'll be doing

Execution

• - Build and maintain relationships with liberal Russian-speaking and international media, mostly operating from outside Russia
• - Prepare comments and background material for editorial teams and PR partners
• - Write and distribute press releases, contributed pieces, and other PR materials
• - Initiate placements, find strong story angles, and turn product context into news hooks

Planning and Risk

• - Monitor the news cycle and respond quickly to events that are relevant to us
• - Plan PR activity and maintain clear reporting
• - Map where relationships already exist and where they need to be built from scratch
• - Increase share of voice without creating unnecessary reputational risk
