We are a remote-first organization and over 38% of our employees reside outside the United States. Headquartered in Boston, we also have offices in London, Brighton, Rotterdam, Frankfurt and Sydney (just in case you’re in the area to stop by). Whether you’re local or remote, our vision is to ensure every employee has a sense of belonging, a voice that is heard, and a clear path for success.

THIS IS A CONTRACT TO HIRE POSITION
Reporting into the Director, Global Content and Communications, the PR / Communications Manager will be responsible for strengthening Bullhorn’s position as a leader in the market, demonstrating our expertise in staffing as well as our growth as a technology business. This role will craft Bullhorn’s point of view on key topics and then work independently and with teammates to get those messages into market through a combination of earned and owned media – all to raise awareness of the business and advance our thought leadership efforts.
A key part of this role will be partnering with our PR agency to identify story angles that highlight Bullhorn’s unique strengths and point of view.
