What You Will Do

  • Lead the strategy and execution of brand communications and PR programs across North America and key international markets (Canada, U.S., and Europe).

  • Build, manage, and deepen relationships with top-tier journalists, editors, and tastemakers across fashion, lifestyle, beauty, culture, business, technology, and trade media.

  • Manage and mentor the Communications Specialist, including setting objectives, evaluating performance, and providing ongoing support.

  • Work closely with the marketing, creative, social media, and editorial teams to develop integrated storytelling opportunities and a consistent communication calendar.

  • Manage the annual PR budget, tracking spend and ensuring programs are delivered on time and within budget.

  • Plan, execute and oversee product launches, press moments, and community-driven events, including guest list strategy, logistics, on-site management, and post-event reporting.
