About the Role

You'll own the strategy, planning and execution of our PR and communications efforts — with a strong focus on founder and leadership profiling, media relations, and online reputation management. This is a role for someone who can work directly with founders and leadership, manage external PR and influencer agencies, and respond quickly and thoughtfully to reputation-sensitive situations.

- Media relations and press communication — press releases, corporate announcements, and brand narratives tied to launches and milestones.
- Online reputation management across Glassdoor, Google, Quora, Reddit, Trustpilot and more.
- Crisis communication and third-party seeding when needed.
- PR agency and influencer collaboration oversight.
- Media coverage tracking, PR impact analysis,



and performance reporting.

What We're Looking For

- 3-5+ years in PR, corporate communications, or media relations — ideally in D2C, consumer, or startup environments.
- Experience managing founder/leadership profiling and media engagement.
- Strong media/journalist relationships and familiarity with media monitoring tools.
- Experience managing PR and influencer agencies.
- Strong writing skills for press releases and corporate narratives.
- A calm, structured approach to crisis and reputation management.
- Comfort working directly with founders and senior leadership in a rapid-paced environment.

Good to Have

- Experience in beauty, personal care, grooming, fashion, lifestyle, FMCG or D2C brands.
- Exposure to investor/corporate communications.
- Existing relationships with PR agencies, journalists, and digital media platforms.

Why Join Us

- Build and shape the PR and communications function for a fast-growing D2C brand.
- Direct visibility and access to founders and leadership.
- Work across a portfolio of fast-growing consumer brands under GlobalBees.
- Own high-impact narratives that shape brand and leadership reputation.
