_LaunchLink's Melbourne team is growing again and we're on the hunt for creative, driven, kind humans to join our crew._
- LaunchLink is a PR firm specialising in telling stories for high-growth tech companies._
When it comes to culture, we walk the walk. LaunchLink is all about autonomy, flexible work, and a fun environment. We're based in our beautiful Fitzroy space, but we've been remote-friendly since day one (not just because of COVID). We don't believe in sweat-shop hours, and most importantly, we will never support a toxic, competitive culture.
**What's the gig?**
- Experience with tech and business clients/media is a must.
- You'll develop, direct and implement brand-building strategies that promote the products and services of our clients. You will create and manage strategies that build reputation and brand image with customers, stakeholders, investors and the wider public.
- You'll collaborate with world-class communicators and a tight-knit team, to develop impactful campaigns and pitch engaging stories that deliver business-oriented outcomes for clients.
- You'll work alongside us to strengthen and grow our connections with media, key players and industry figures.
- You will be a valued part of our business development strategy and will have the independence to pitch and prop dream clients and have the opportunity to attend key events and network with industry figures.
**What are we looking for? You ideally have**:
- 3+ years of PR or journalism experience. Social media experience is also welcomed.
- A strong understanding of the mainstream Australian media landscape, particularly in tech and business. International markets (particularly USA/APAC) are also held in high regard, considering the global nature of our business.
- Relationships in the B2B, finance & enterprise sectors and US/UK/NZ/ APAC contacts are highly regarded.
- Great management skills. We have a 'no-jerks' policy when it comes to clients and team members. You are a friendly and professional operator who can quickly build trust and be welcomed as part of the client's team.
- You're not afraid to roll up your sleeves, take on responsibility and get the job done (we're not into micromanagement).
**Who is LaunchLink? Not your old-school PR agency**
Founded in 2017, LaunchLink is quickly growing to become one of Australia's most respected PR firms, by both the media and the tech industry. Our co-founders are ex-agency practitioners from some of Australia's most established PR houses, with a reputation for building some of the biggest names in tech. Since 2017, we have established presences in Melbourne, Silicon Valley, New York and London with more international markets in our sights.
LaunchLink was founded with a mission to do PR _the right way_. We're passionate about contributing to the growth of the innovation sector and we're active participants in the startup community as mentors, connectors and friendly faces.
**Why LaunchLink?**
We might be the new kids on the block, but we're quickly becoming the talk of the town for our fresh, _no-BS _approach to PR and industry-leading results.
LaunchLink is proud to be a small team with a big network, with team members in Oz, the US and the UK.
We're committed to building purpose-driven careers, not boring jobs. LaunchLinkers have the opportunity to work with brands they love, and bring new business ventures to the table. We also encourage our team to access professional development and upskilling.
If you like the sound of LaunchLink and want to explore the idea of joining an upbeat, creative team, drop us a line.
