In this role, you will build and manage a digital PR and link-building program designed to strengthen online visibility, improve organic search performance, and increase brand authority across search engines and AI-powered platforms.

Plan and execute digital PR campaigns by developing timely, compelling story ideas for journalists, editors, and publications relevant to the target audience.
Build and maintain relationships with journalists, publishers, editors, and website owners to secure relevant media coverage, brand mentions, and editorial backlinks.
Use AI tools and automation to improve prospect research, outreach efficiency, and campaign execution while maintaining high standards of personalization and quality.
