Are you obsessed with powerful storytelling, building brands that matter, and getting game-changing companies the visibility they deserve? HCM is where bold ideas meet real impact—and we’re looking for a PR Account Manager to help lead the charge.

We’re not your typical agency. We move fast, think big, and partner with bold, visionary consumer brands—many of them female-led—that are redefining wellness, tech, femtech, fertility, and lifestyle.

This role is for someone who’s energized by the fast pace of agency life, thrives in a collaborative, creative environment, and knows how to land headline-making coverage. If that’s you, let’s talk.

This is a hybrid role mixing remote work and a few days per week in our New York office. We are also open to qualified candidates located within the US.

What You’ll Do:

• Own the PR strategy and execution for a dynamic portfolio of wellness, CPG, lifestyle, and femtech brands
• Lead client relationships—becoming their go-to partner, strategic thinker, and trusted advisor
• Craft stories that get noticed and pitch them to top-tier media across digital, print, and broadcast
• Build and maintain strong relationships with journalists, editors, and producers
• Write sharp, compelling press materials that reflect the voice and ambition of our clients
• Stay ahead of cultural moments and media trends to keep clients in the conversation
• Collaborate closely with our internal team to make things happen—fast, smart, and on-brand
• Track results, analyze coverage, and translate wins into insights and momentum
• You have 3-5+ years of experience in PR, ideally at an agency working with consumer brands
• You’ve worked with CPG and wellness brands and know how to make them pop in media
• You bring real media relationships—especially in lifestyle, wellness, and broadcast
• You’ve secured standout placements and can talk us through how you made them happen
• You’re a strong writer and communicator with a sharp editorial instinct
• You’re organized, proactive, and know how to juggle multiple accounts without dropping a beat
• You thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment where everyone shows up with ideas and ownership
• You care deeply about the kind of brands you work with—and want your work to mean something

Why You’ll Love HCM:

• We’re building the go-to agency for modern consumer brands that are shaping culture—and we’re just getting started.
• You’ll work with boundary-pushing clients who are changing lives and conversations
• We’re a high-energy, high-integrity team that values initiative, curiosity, and creative thinking
• Hybrid role based in NYC, with office space for collaboration and vibe
• Competitive pay, full health benefits, and a work culture that celebrates ownership, honesty, and impact

This is your seat at the table if you’re ready to tell bigger stories, work with mission-driven brands, and help shape the future of PR.
