About the role

Description

  • This role isn’t for maintaining the status quo.  This is a leadership seat - with a path to agency ownership.
  • At MediaSource, we don’t promote products - we elevate the voices of mission-driven organizations whose work changes lives.
  • From breakthrough cancer therapies to the human stories behind patient care, our work sits at the intersection of medicine, media and meaning.
  • We’re looking for a Senior Vice President of Public Relations to lead, elevate and evolve our PR practice - and to help shape the future of the agency itself.
  • This is a rare opportunity for a senior leader who wants more than a title. Someone who wants real influence, long-term upside and a seat at the table.

What You’ll Own

  • Build the Team. Shape the Agency.
  • You will lead the PR team - but also play a key role in where MediaSource goes next.
  • Coach and develop senior talent into confident client leaders
  • Create clarity, accountability and organizational excellence within the PR function
  • Partner with agency leadership on growth, positioning and innovation
  • Contribute to new business and long-term strategic direction
  • This is where you move from leading work to building something that lasts.

Lead the Work That Matters

  • You will be the senior-most PR voice on our most important accounts - guiding strategy, advising executives and stepping in when the stakes are high.
  • Trusted advisor to healthcare leaders navigating complexity, reputation and visibility
  • Architect of integrated PR strategies that move perception - not just generate coverage
  • Steady leadership presence in high-stakes moments
  • Lead as the visionary behind what’s next.

Raise the Bar for PR Excellence

  • You will codify what “great” communications looks like and institute best practices across the agency.
  • Set the standard for storytelling, media outreach and integrated communications
  • Make decisive calls on priorities in complex environments
  • Identify and close quality gaps
  • This is about building a reputation - for the agency and for yourself.

Who This Is For

You’re a senior PR leader who has:

  • 15+ years of experience, including deep agency leadership
  • A track record of advising executives and leading complex, high-visibility work
  • Strong instincts, presence and the ability to lead through ambiguity
  • A desire to build - not just manage
  • Healthcare experience is a plus. Leadership, judgment and ambition are essential.

Why This Role Is Different

  • You’re not inheriting a rigid structure - you’re helping define it
  • You’ll work directly with agency leadership, not through layers
  • The work has real-world impact across healthcare
  • There is a long-term path to equity participation for the right leader
  • This is an opportunity to grow into true ownership - not just responsibility.

The Bottom Line

  • If you’re looking for another title, another checklist or another version of the same agency role, this isn’t it
  • . If you’re looking for influence, leadership and the opportunity to help build and share in the future of an agency, let’s talk
