PR Manager (Part Time)

Who We Are
Boeh Agency (Bā) is a full-service marketing and PR firm dedicated exclusively to the water industry. We work with companies solving complex environmental and public health challenges — and we help them communicate with clarity, credibility and momentum.
We are known for sector fluency, strategic thinking and integrated execution. Our clients trust us because we understand the nuance of infrastructure, regulation, innovation and public perception in water. PR is not an add-on at Bā. It is a core growth driver — for our clients and for us.
Our core values guide how we show up for each other and our clients; genuinely aligned values is crucial to ensuring a strong fit for new hires:
Make Waves Together Collaboration is at the core of everything we do, fueling better ideas, stronger solutions and shared success. We embrace diverse perspectives, contribute
generously and build momentum as a team—because we rise higher when we lift others.
Champion with Care We lead with empathy, candor and integrity—upholding dignity and respect for people, planet and the water that connects us.
Lead the Curve We stay curious, adaptable and future-focused—continually learning and innovating to meet emerging challenges with confidence.
Deliver Clarity We prioritize thoughtful, actionable strategies over perfection. By removing ambiguity, we deliver impactful solutions that simplify complexity and move brands forward.
