Public Relations Coordinator

Eberly & Collard Public Relations is a national firm specializing in integrated marketing communications, branding, product positioning, thought-leadership campaigns, event planning, public/media relations, digital marketing, SEO, demand generation, social media, influencer marketing and advertising. Our main office is based in Midtown Atlanta, and our satellite office is located in New York City.

Our Atlanta office has an immediate opening for an entrepreneurial, self-starting individual to join our growing team. This entry-level role is ideal for a strong writer and highly organized project coordinator who is eager to learn how modern digital PR and integrated marketing programs are planned, executed, and measured. Candidates may have held prior titles such as Public Relations Intern, Public Relations Coordinator, Communications Coordinator, Marketing Coordinator, Account Coordinator, or Junior PR Associate.

We are looking for people who believe we can accomplish so much more together than apart. People who are ready to jump right in, love collaborating, and value our culture of inclusion and transparency.

The Position:

• Media monitoring and coverage reporting: monitor priority publications, newsletters, and digital outlets; create and organize clips (PDF/scans/screenshots); log placements with basic metrics and notes for client reporting.
• Maintain accurate and up-to-date media lists and databases; support media research, beat mapping, and contact verification using Meltwater and/or comparable tools (training provided).
• Support earned media campaigns by drafting and coordinating press materials (press releases, media alerts, pitch angles, briefing notes) and managing approvals and distribution logistics.
• Conduct market, competitor, and media research and apply findings to campaign planning, pitches, and client documentation.
• Support social and digital content development, including drafting captions and short-form copy, assisting with content calendars, and repurposing coverage and event moments into owned-channel content.
• Assist with integrated campaign execution, including preparing and submitting sponsored content or advertising materials (assets, copy, ad forms) and coordinating deadlines with publications and partners.
• Build client-facing reporting and internal documentation (coverage recaps, meeting agendas/minutes, status trackers, basic charts/graphs, presentations).
• Support events and tradeshows as needed, including coordination of schedules, media/influencer logistics, onsite support, content capture, and timely post-event follow-up.
• Provide support to colleagues working on digital marketing efforts, including basic SEO and marketing automation tasks as assigned (training provided; prior digital marketing platform experience, such as Google, Meta, or HubSpot familiarity, is a plus).
• Serve in a proactive role to support agency owners and senior team members with day-to-day account needs and internal workflow coordination.
• Demonstrate consistent, positive values and actions aligned with ECPR’s ongoing mission and day-to-day activities.
