Manage a small team and serve as the day-to-day point of contact with our agency partners, setting priorities, directing outreach, and ensuring the agency is delivering work that meets our standards and elevates the brand. Serve as a communications liaison across GEICO’s broader roster of external agencies – including creative, media, and digital partners – to ensure alignment on messaging, brand voice, and proactive storytelling opportunities. Requirements 10 years of communications experience with a focus on marketing communications, brand PR, and consumer communications. Experience in both agency and in-house settings. You understand how to manage and get the best out of agency partners – both a dedicated communications agency and the broader ecosystem of creative, media, and digital agencies that support a large marketing organization. Experience building new capabilities in fast-paced, dynamic environments. Comfortable operating with ambiguity and taking an entrepreneurial approach to problem-solving. Retail or consumer brand PR experience strongly preferred. Established relationships with reporters and editors at major marketing and advertising trade publications.
