Account Manager: Love News? Love Sales? You'll Love PR Newswire! (PR and Investor Relations Focus)
As an Account Manager for PR Newswire based in New York City, you will represent and market the services of one of the world leaders in corporate news distribution. Focusing on our agency accounts, you will develop our existing public relations and investor relations agency relationships while actively seeking new business. Your ability to process large amounts of information and to develop a consultative business relationship will allow you to make recommendations to our important agency clients. For an account management professional with a strong interest in news, media, the stock market, and new technology, PR Newswire is the place to build a career in our uncapped commission environment.
Now in its 54th year, PR Newswire Association LLC (www.prnewswire.com) provides electronic distribution, targeting, measurement, and broadcast services on behalf of some 40,000 corporate, government, association, labor, non-profit, and other customers worldwide.

Your ability to stay current and understand the business needs of our clients will enable you to make effective recommendations of products and services. Your background in the public relations, investor relations, or the corporate communications field and an understanding of new media will give you an edge when understanding how our products and services help customers solve business challenges and your previous sales experience and a consultative approach will allow you to hit the ground running.
