The Role

Let's skip the buzzwords: Public Policy Institute wants a nimble Public Relations Manager in Akron, OH who delivers, learns fast, and treats Active Listening as a craft. The headline is $84,000 - $118,000, but the story is ownership — general work you steer at Public Policy Institute after just 8 years.

Key Responsibilities

  • Partner sideways with teams who rarely sit in the same room
  • Map the handoffs between OH teams so nothing falls in the cracks
  • Ensure compliance with company policies and applicable OH regulations
  • Convert Project Management chaos into a backlog someone can actually work
  • Adapt quickly to shifting priorities in a fast-paced general environment

What You'll Bring

  • 6+ years owning outcomes, not just completing tasks
  • Proven follow-through, measured in shipped things rather than good intentions
  • Strong rapport-building skills and a genuinely positive presence
  • Customer-focused outlook with strong interpersonal skills
  • Solid understanding of general best practices and industry standards

You won't find Public Policy Institute on every billboard, but inside general circles across OH, this human-first team is well known. Accountability here is shared, so wins belong to the team and setbacks become lessons.

Secure $84,000 - $118,000, flexible remote options, equity, and a mentorship program designed to help you reach the next manager.

The team in Akron is interviewing on a rolling basis, so early applicants get noticed first.

We promise a real review, a real reply, and a real shot, so send the application.
