Marketing Job Descriptions — Letter P

Marketing and public relations job descriptions beginning with P

Three marketing job descriptions begin with the letter P, and together they form the public relations family of this category: the PR / Public Relations page describing the discipline itself, the Public Relations Assistant who runs the press office's samples, clippings and lists, and the Public Relations Manager who owns a brand's or agency's press operation. P is where the earned-media half of fashion marketing lives, and the three descriptions below read as a set — function, apprenticeship and leadership of the same craft.

The Public Relations Family

Public relations earns the attention advertising buys: coverage in magazines, newspapers, broadcasts and feeds, won by giving editors, stylists and creators stories and product worth their audience's time. The general PR description covers media relations, press strategy and reputation work as a function; the assistant description shows where careers in it begin, in sample traffic and coverage records; and the manager description covers the level at which a press office's people, budgets and results are owned. Reading the three together gives the fullest picture of how fashion publicity actually operates.

How to Use This Letter

Start with the PR / Public Relations description if you are choosing the field, the assistant description if you are entering it, and the manager description if you are hiring for or progressing within it. The alphabet bar leads to the rest of the category — M for the marketing ladder, A for advertising, F for the fashion editor, publicist and writer — and the links below lead to the wider public relations guide, fashion week and event resources, employment agencies and search engines around this section.

Common Questions

Which marketing job descriptions begin with P?

Three, all in public relations: PR / Public Relations, describing the discipline; Public Relations Assistant, the entry-level press-office role; and Public Relations Manager, who owns a press operation's team, budget and results.

How do the three P roles fit together?

They are one craft at three levels: the function itself, the apprenticeship that runs its samples, clippings and lists, and the management level accountable for its strategy, people and coverage results.

Is public relations part of marketing?

Yes — in most fashion businesses PR sits inside or alongside the marketing function, as its earned-media discipline, working to the same seasonal calendar and brand positioning as advertising and the other marketing channels.
