PR Manager (College and Digital Skills)

Hello! This is the team from the online school "Foxford".

For 17 years, we've been providing online education for schoolchildren, their parents, and teachers. We are among the top 3 largest EdTech companies in the children's segment, with 1500 employees and over 10 million users. But most importantly – we create a truly useful and high-quality product that helps schoolchildren fall in love with learning and achieve results 🧡

We are looking for a PR Manager / Public Relations Specialist who will take on two areas: Foxford College and Digital Skills.

What you'll be doing:

• Fully manage PR for the areas – from strategy to implementation.
• Formulate the information agenda, find and generate news leads.
• Systematically work with the media: initiate publications and press releases, develop contacts with journalists.
• Plan and implement PR campaigns, paid placements, and special projects.
• Get involved in product launches and changes at early stages and build communications together with the teams.
• Monitor the presence of the areas in the information field (ours and competitors') and analyze the results of PR campaigns.
• Participate in anti-crisis communications: identify risks and work with them together with the team.

We'll work well together if this describes you:

• At least 2.5 years of PR experience.
• Experience in independently managing a PR area – from strategy to implementation.
• Solid experience working with the media.
• A database of journalists in relevant topics (or readiness to quickly build contacts with these journalists).
• Experience in anti-crisis communications.
• You live in Moscow.
• You are ready for business trips.

Will be a plus:

• Experience in children's education, vocational education, or products related to digital skills / programming / AI.
• Experience implementing paid special projects in the media.

💚 Why it's great here

• Of course, official employment and a white salary.
• Most of the time, the PR team works remotely, but it's important for us that our future colleague lives in Moscow, can go on shoots and events (and sometimes – come to the office to brainstorm and vibe with the team).
• Perhaps you'll have business trips around Russia :)
• We provide equipment and everything necessary for work.
• Freedom of action: we are ready to support any of your boldest ideas and hypotheses if you can justify them.
• Trust: we assume that colleagues are professionals and do not engage in micromanagement, supporting a high level of autonomy in the team – while being ready to help, support, and share expertise.
• Health care: Voluntary Medical Insurance (DMS) with dentistry, psychologist, and psychotherapist, a subscription to Dobroservis. And if you catch a cold – we'll send you a vitamin box :)
• Development: learning foreign languages in corporate courses, discounts on Foxford products, access to an online library, and compensation for external training.
