About the role
We're hiring a Head of PR to own how Beagle (a Corgi company) tells our story to the world. You'll set our narrative, build our media presence, and produce the content that gets us noticed, all with the momentum of real press traction and a direct line to leadership. This is a high-ownership role for a sharp writer and storyteller who can think strategically and execute hands‑on, from pitching journalists to self‑producing short‑form video.

What you'll work on

Narrative & positioning — owning Beagle's story, messaging, and positioning end‑to‑end

Media relations — building real relationships with journalists and landing meaningful coverage

Announcements — press releases and launch comms for product, and company news

What you won’t deal with

Layers of approval — you'll own comms and move fast, not route everything through committee

Siloed work — you'll work across PR, brand, content, and social

Process for the sake of process — no busywork, just stories that move the needle

Ghostwriting in a vacuum — you'll have direct access to founders and leadership

You should have

Exceptional writing, editing, and communication skills

Strong instincts around storytelling, positioning, and narrative strategy

Experience self‑producing high‑quality, high‑converting short‑form video content

Experience in communications, PR, media, product marketing, brand strategy, or founder‑led storytelling

The ability to operate both strategically and hands‑on across execution

A deeply organized, proactive, and relationship‑oriented approach

Bonus

Experience in insurance, fintech, proptech, or other regulated/complex domains

An existing network of media and journalist relationships
