Role
Who you are
- Experience in media monitoring, potentially at a Public Affairs / Public Relations / Communications agency
- Strong interest in tracking current events and monitoring the most pressing issues across a wide variety of industries
- Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment and manage tight timelines while maintaining a cool confidence
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills
- Impeccable attention to detail and organizational skills
- Energetic, upbeat disposition and excellent sense of humor
- Comfort and confidence in problem-solving both as a team and autonomously
- Excited to learn more about marketing, communications, advertising, business, management consulting, public policy, economics, international affairs, technology, data analytics, or a related field
What the job involves
- You will be responsible for supporting our Business Development team as we work alongside some of the country’s most prominent companies, trade associations, nonprofits and advocacy organizations
- In this role you would help to research potential Applecart opportunities across corporate reputation, public affairs, and B2B marketing use-cases
- You will work with a talented team of strategists, communications experts, and analysts who, together, impact marketing campaigns and policy outcomes for Applecart’s high profile clients
- This role will report to our VP of Business Operations, Zach Herz-Roiphe
- Monitor the news for developments relevant to Applecart’s prospective and existing clients, with a focus on developments that Applecart can use to pitch business to those clients. Flag and summarize these developments for the Applecart Business Development team members responsible for selling to the relevant account
- Monitor the sponsors of relevant newsletters (e.g., Axios, Politico, etc.)
- Set up and maintain news alerts in Applecart’s news monitoring platform (Critical Mention)
- Maintain a priority list of prospective and existing clients for whom we should monitor news; update that list based on guidance from members of the Applecart’s Business Development team
- Assist staff with ad hoc research tasks
- Data entry and information management
Our take
Applecart uses publicly available data, both online and offline, to create a map of real-world interpersonal relationships. Allowing clients to run more effective advertising and marketing campaigns by leveraging social influence, or word of mouth, which Applecart believes is the most powerful motivator.
Initially focused on political campaigns, Applecart worked to increase voter engagement and turnout. However, in recent years, it has expanded into commercial work, partnering with organisations such as Boeing and nonprofits like The Business Roundtable.
A key backer of Applecart is Ari Emanuel, CEO of Endeavor, a global entertainment and media agency that owns the UFC. While it's unclear if the UFC is currently a client, Emanuel's involvement signals the high-profile clients Applecart is now attracting. Further success has come in the form of Blackstone's impressive $100 million investment in Applecart, setting up 2026 to be a year of further growth for the company.
