About The Role
We’re looking for a hands-on, growth-minded PR Manager to help turn SmartBuyGlasses into a brand people recognise, recommend, and search for by name. This is not a corporate PR role. You’ll be in the trenches: pitching journalists, opening doors with influencers and partners, shipping ambassador deals, landing tier-1 coverage, and making the brand felt across podcasts, social, and editorial.
You’ll get the editorial and PR fundamentals right first — press releases, journalist relationships, content hygiene. Then scale into the bigger plays: viral collabs, house-brand collections, ambassador programmes, sports and community partnerships, and earned coverage that gets cited in LLMs and AI search.
You’ll lead two in-house specialists (PR and Copy Specialist, Content Specialist), partner closely with merchandising, influencer, creative, and SEO, and have full visibility and direct access to the founding team.
What You’ll Do
- Own the commercial outcome of PR and Partnerships: branded search growth, new-market awareness, contribution to organic revenue
- Lead a team of two: a PR and Copy Specialist and a Content Specialist. Set priorities, run the cadence, raise the bar
- Get the fundamentals right first: press releases, editorial direction, brand storytelling, content hygiene
- Partner with merchandising on house-brand collections with influencers, designers, and cultural figures. Small, sharp, fashion-forward drops
- Run our Brand Ambassador programme: real ambassadors with real reach, not token influencer gifting
- Build a diversified earned media footprint that drives branded demand: tier-1 publications, niche authority sites, cultural outlets. These are the mentions that feed LLMs and build authority
- Drive partnerships: sports RX, smart eyewear, community sports teams, NGO tie-ups, cultural institutions. Make SmartBuyGlasses a name people encounter outside the ad break
- Make us heard everywhere: podcasts, Reddit, LinkedIn, newspapers, TV, editorial — brand mention volume is what feeds SEO and AI search visibility
- Work hand in hand with our Social and Influencer lead to convert influencer reach into branded search lift
- Set editorial direction for brand content on site: storytelling, launches, collab narratives, brand pages. Work with our SEO lead on priorities
- Run the editorial engine week-to-week: calendar, brief templates, review loops, output quality, speed to publish
- Track AI search visibility (SGE, AI Overviews, LLMs) and shape PR and mentions so our brand surfaces in the answers
- Run disciplined experiments on formats, hooks, and distribution. Kill what doesn’t work fast
- Translate results into clear commercial insights — no fluff reporting
What We’re Looking For
- 5+ years hands-on experience in PR, Brand, or Partnerships at a consumer, fashion, lifestyle, or e-commerce brand, with direct ownership of commercial outcomes
- Alignment with our company’s 5 core values: Passionate, Entrepreneurial, Smart, Collaborative and Caring
- Growth mindset. You open doors, pick up the phone, follow up, ship at 85%. You don’t wait for permission or perfect briefs
- Track record of collabs, brand partnerships, or licensing wins you can point to by name (size doesn’t matter as much as the story)
- Experience placing media coverage in fashion, lifestyle, or business publications
- Comfortable working with merchandising and product teams on branded collaborations and collections
- Strong commercial acumen — you think in branded search lift, repeat rate, and revenue, not impressions or EMV
- Experience integrating PR with influencer and social to drive brand awareness
- Experience managing a small in-house team or wanting to step up to it
- Excellent written and verbal English communication
- You partner naturally with SEO and performance teams — you know what feeds search and AI visibility even if you don’t own the technical side
- Self-starter with a bias for action
- A strategic mindset with strong understanding of brand building, user behaviour, and funnel metrics
- High attention to detail and a proactive, self-starting attitude
- Problem-solving ability and creativity in a fast-paced environment
- A passion for learning and improving continuously
