Job Description:
Job Description Job Description Sunshine Sachs Morgan & Lylis is
a leading global communications agency built to navigate the
complexities of a hyper-connected world. We represent the icons and
innovators shaping culture—from global heritage corporations and
high-growth tech startups to the non-profits, creative legends, and
visionary founders who define the global discourse. Our expertise
spans the full cultural spectrum. We operate at the intersection of
entertainment, social impact, corporate reputation, and consumer
lifestyle, executing seamlessly across traditional media,
social-first outlets, brand partnerships, and influencer
ecosystems. Whether we are navigating complex crisis management,
elevating advocacy campaigns, or launching global consumer brands,
we are storytellers at our core. You may notice our digital
presence is purposefully understated. While our clients are global
household names, we believe the best work happens with the
spotlight stays firmly on those we represent. We fly under the
radar by design - preferring to let our campaigns, and our results,
speak for themselves. If you're driven, intentional, and ready to
do good, we're ready for you! Sunshine Sachs Morgan & Lylis is
seeking a highly motivated, culturally-obsessed Account Executive .
This role is designed for a professional with 3–4 years of
experience who is ready to master the ins and outs of personal
representation—from managing a red carpet to architecting a
talent’s public narrative. You are a creative thinker who thrives
in high-pressure, fast-paced environments. You understand that
working with talent requires a unique blend of tenacity,
discretion, and meticulous attention to detail. If you have a deep
foundation in entertainment media and a passion for the
behind-the-scenes mechanics of the entertainment industry, we want
to hear from you. The Role: Personal Representation & Support:
Assist in executing comprehensive communications strategies for
talent. You’ll manage the essential day-to-day logistics, including
scheduling, coordinating glam/grooming, and providing on-site
staffing support. Red Carpet & Event Mastery: Support the planning
and execution of press moments and events. You’ll own the backend
logistics—from invitation strategy and RSVP management to wrangling
media on-site and credentialing. Integrated Storytelling: Work
within an integrated agency model, collaborating with internal
groups to ensure talent narratives are consistent across social,
brand, and traditional media platforms. Content & Writing
Excellence: Draft, edit, and proofread high-impact materials,
including press releases, pitches, briefing notes, and talent
correspondence. Media Relations: Maintain and expand your arsenal
of go-to entertainment reporters. You know how to pitch the right
story to the right person to secure meaningful coverage for your
clients. Trend & News Intelligence: Act as the team’s eyes and
ears. Monitor news cycles and pop-culture trends to flag breaking
opportunities or competitor news that impacts your talent roster.
Account Stewardship: Support senior managers in achieving
deliverables for a roster of 4–6 clients. This includes the
administrative precision required to keep accounts running:
agendas, recaps, and analysis reports. The Relationship Standard:
You understand that we are in a people business. You lead by
example in how you treat your co-workers, clients, and the
media—prioritizing trust and confidentiality above all else. Who
You Are: The Talent Specialist: 3–4 years of PR experience, with at
least 2 years specifically focused on talent management (at a PR
firm, agency, or management firm). High EQ: You possess high
emotional intelligence and the ability to maintain a calm,
professional demeanor around high-profile talent. You have the
discretion to handle sensitive information. Meticulously Organized:
You have a tenacious follow-through and an eagle eye for detail.
You can coordinate complex projects on the backend without letting
a single task slip. A Resourceful Problem-Solver: You are curious,
entrepreneurial, and have a nothing is impossible attitude when it
comes to meeting client deadlines and needs. A Strong Writer: You
are fast, persuasive, and adaptable, capable of drafting everything
from a formal bio to a punchy pitch. Driven to Over-Deliver: You
don’t just meet expectations; you constantly strive for excellence
and take genuine pride in being part of a high-performing team.
