About 5W Public Relations
5W Public Relations is one of the largest independently owned PR and digital marketing agencies in the United States. Founded in 2003, 5WPR serves clients across consumer, technology, health, beauty, finance, gaming, cannabis, crisis, and digital marketing practices. Named PR Agency of the Year by the American Business Awards, a Top 50 Global PR Agency by PRovoke Media, and Digiday WorkLife Employer of the Year.

5WPR owns the leading independent publication covering the public relations industry, published continuously since January 2009. We are now expanding our owned media network across the verticals we serve — giving 5W category‑defining editorial authority in every practice area and making us the first PR firm to systematically build LLM citation authority at scale.

The Role
The publishing engine. This person makes everything actually ship. You are the back‑end operator across all 5W‑owned properties and our growing network of owned media. WordPress, schema implementation, internal linking, social scheduling, Search Console — all of it runs through you. Without this role in seat, our expanded network cannot go live.

This is not a writing role. It is a systems and execution role for someone who is deeply detail‑oriented, technically fluent in modern publishing tools, and takes personal accountability for content going live correctly and on time.

What You Will Own

Publishing content across all 5W‑owned properties and our owned media network on schedule — every piece, every day

WordPress back‑ends across all properties — plugins, updates, user permissions, security

Schema and structured data implementation on every post using templates provided

Image upload, formatting, alt text, and compression for page speed on every piece

Internal linking — every piece published gets contextual links to relevant 5wpr.com practice pages

Social scheduling in coordination with the social team

Submission to Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools after every publish

Sitemap generation, broken link monitoring, redirects, and 404 management across all properties

What You Need

3–5 years in content operations, WordPress administration, or digital publishing

Deep WordPress fluency — plugins, custom fields, user roles, security — you have administered WordPress sites, not just posted to them

Basic HTML/CSS — you can fix a formatting issue without calling a developer

Familiarity with schema templates — you can apply them correctly even if not writing from scratch

Google Search Console, Bing Webmaster Tools, and Google Analytics comfort

Obsessive attention to detail — nothing ships wrong, nothing ships late

Voluntary Self-Identification
For government reporting purposes, we ask candidates to respond to the below self‑identification survey. Completion of the form is entirely voluntary. Whatever your decision, it will not be considered in the hiring process or thereafter. Any information that you do provide will be recorded and maintained in a confidential file.

As set forth in 5WPR’s Equal Employment Opportunity policy, we do not discriminate on the basis of any protected group status under any applicable law.

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service‑connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three‑year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability
Form CC-305

Page 1 of 1

OMB Control Number 1250-0005

Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
