VSC; San Francisco (CA); Remote; USD 120,000 - 180,000; Full time

Job summary

VSC Agency is hiring a PR Lead to drive strategy and execution for 6–7 accounts, partnering directly with founders and content creators to generate widespread publicity and showcase ideas that challenge industries.

You will build founder relationships, shape their public voice, and craft campaigns with reporters, podcasters, and digital creators to win awards and drive substantial attention. This role demands a hands-on leader who can ship impactful, viral content.

Qualifications

• 7-10 years running PR or comms campaigns, with a track record of wins (coverage, product launches, ideas that stuck).
• Strong media relationships with business and tech journalists.
• Mastery of AI tools like ChatGpt, Claude and Perpelexity to create and evaluate excellence in all you do.
• Experience working with content creators or helping clients build a voice online — not just media pitching.
• Confidence in talking to genius-level founders, pushing back on weak ideas, and delivering stronger ones.
• Obsessed with tech culture, headlines, and how ideas travel.
• A strong personal social presence because how can one advise a client if they don’t know how to do it for yourself?

Responsibilities

• Lead strategy and execution across 6–7 accounts, direct with founders and content creators, generate publicity and develop ideas that challenge industries.
• Build founder relationships and help shape their public voice.
• Turn brilliant, technical founders into unforgettable public voices.
• Build real relationships with reporters, podcasters, TikTokers, YouTubers, and Substack stars.
• Be a creator, not just a strategist — ship short-form content that earns attention without a newsroom.
• Lead and level up a tight, fast-moving team that wants to win as much as you do.
• You’ll work directly with founders building real companies — not just brand teams on endless Zooms of BS.
