Quick Details:
Independent Contractor
8-12 hours per week
Start date: February 2020
Cher Hale Creative PR is hiring an independently contracted administrative assistant.
We’re a national boutique PR agency that believes in using our skill set as a mechanism to drive social change. Instead of contributing to the headlines regaling us with Richard Branson's ultimate entrepreneur morning routine, we prefer to place stories centered around diverse women — how the Korean-American entrepreneur infuses culture into her jewelry, how the black lawyer tends to her mental health, or how the LGTBQ+ author uses her platform to lift other marginalized communities up.
We’re more than just publicists who send galley letters and mass messages. We’re all about creating warm, personalized, and genuine connections. In fact, a host of a top-rated podcast in the self-help vertical, says that we produce “the gold standard for pitches.”
Job Description
We’re hiring one independently contracted administrative assistant to add to our agency that works between 8-12 hours per week and would be able to start as soon as February 2020.

Some of the books we’ve helped bring to market include Bare by Susan Hyatt, By Hand by Nicole Miyuki Santo, The Beauty of Conflict for Couples by CrisMarie Campbell and Susan Clarke, and How to Be an Inclusive Leader by Jennifer Brown.
