Coordinator

At Scott Circle Communications (SCC), we help mission-driven organizations and causes make the world a better place - and we’re really good at it. But don’t just take our word for it. Leading PR trade publication Ragan and PR Daily recently named us the #1 firm in the country for our work with nonprofit clients, and Clutch.co picked us as one of the country’s top women-owned and led businesses. 

If you’re looking to be part of a respected, growing agency where you can make a positive impact on issues you care about like health care, education, and social justice – we’re looking for you. From messaging for nonprofits, media relations for associations, and social media for foundations, working at SCC combines the variety of work for high-profile national clients with the hands-on, personal touch of a boutique firm. 

SCC is an inclusive team of PR pros, joiners, doers, volunteers, and activists united by our passion for doing good work that does good. Our culture is strong, creative, supportive – and did we mention fun? We’re looking for an enthusiastic coordinator to join our expanding team.
