I'm working on a position for a company that is a hybrid for the Public Relations/Social Media field. Rather than post a boring job description, I figured I'd post what I really wanted. Note that this is not a job description you'd put on Monster, but it's perfectly acceptable for Ning networks, LinkedIn, and of course email and IM communication while headhunting through social media.
Looking for a St Louis based in-house Public Relations top performer with a heavy dose of working with technology or technical services, who understands how to use social media in tandem with traditional PR.
Harder than it sounds, but easier than it looks, this is a permanent placement with a hot company in downtown St Louis. You have to have PR experience, but you have to pass my social media test also.
Salary, I haven't yet determined, but I have a ballpark I'd like to shoot for. That's not a ploy, I really haven't decided what it should be until I talk to the person.
Expectations are that you will create press - both online and in trade and newspapers. Constant work - it's a lot more than PR Newswire or press releases to your industry contacts. But it's a sweet job with a sweet company.
Here are the basics
Ability to network and interface with trade and local press (local as in every city)
Events and Trade Shows
Managing online presence (Facebook, Twitter, blogs, networks)
Online monitoring
Press contacts
Content and copywriting press releases and social media releases
Integration of public relations and social media job duties
Results oriented policies and attention to detail (and you're judged in large part by the employment process).
The Company.
One of the most respected in its field
Heavy technology focus
Top Notch Customer Service
Revenues grew five fold last year.
One of the best bosses you'll ever have, if you're a hard worker and an entrepreneur (and there's no chance of him being a bad boss, because you wouldn't last long if you're not a hard worker).
Please do keep in mind this is a St Louis position and I'm only posting it here for people to see and comment on. Please don't send me your resume - connect with me if you're actually through one of my social media channels and we'll talk.
