The ideal candidate will have a minimum of three years of experience in public relations, public affairs, or management consulting. The candidate must be an exceptional writer with experience drafting press releases, talking points, fact sheets, and more.

Keadjian is one of the fastest‑growing, midsized agencies in the country. The agency also celebrates one of the lowest co‑worker turnover rates in the industry, with teammates joining and staying for many years to build their careers.

As an independently owned firm, Keadjian Associates rewards stellar teammates with competitive salaries, an unmatched discretionary bonus program for performance, and excellent benefits.

• Draft high‑quality, client‑ready messaging and materials (e.g., talking points, press releases, fact sheets, website copy, etc.)
• Write materials with an eye for language and tone; ensure messaging optimizes the client’s brand voice and engages our audiences
• Track key activities (e.g., community engagement) via spreadsheets and other deliverables
• Share updates in client calls and team coordination meetings
• Anticipate issues and proactively offer solutions to ensure flawless execution of communications programs

• 3-4 years of experience in communications or management consulting
• Experience at a corporate communications, public relations, or public affairs agency—or comparable in‑house position—is strongly preferred
• Exceptional writing and editing skills
• Ability to work in a fast‑paced environment, switching seamlessly between multiple projects, delivering under tight deadlines while maintaining attention to detail (grammar, spelling, consistency of message)
• Superb interpersonal and communication skills
• Ability to understand and carry out oral and written directions with minimal supervision
• Highly motivated self‑starter who can also work collaboratively
• Skilled in Microsoft Office, Excel, and Power Point

In addition to the industry‑leading benefits—including end‑of‑year profit sharing and a performance bonus program—the annual base salary for this position ranges from $65,000 to $90,000. Starting salary will be based on factors such as years of experience, type of relevant experience, education, and more.

Keadjian Associates offers a discretionary bonus program awarded at the company’s sole discretion. Bonuses are based on performance and contributions. The company has a 401(k) program that, when eligible, contributes a percentage of the employee’s annual compensation to the plan. Additionally, the company provides group health, dental, and vision insurance coverage for eligible employees, and it pays 100% of the employee’s premiums for the offered medical benefit plans.
