Public Relations Account Manager (Contract, Part-Time, Remote | UPLVL Agency) At UPLVL Agency, the Account Manager is the engine of our client campaigns. They’re the person who reads the news at 7am and immediately thinks "that's our angle." You won't be waiting for direction. You'll be the one giving it. If you're a seasoned PR pro who's energized by securing meaningful media for founders who are genuinely changing lives, and you want to do it inside a high-caliber, tight-knit team of A-players, this role is for you. About UPLVL Agency UPLVL Agency is a boutique public relations firm working with founder-led, service-based companies in health, wellness, lifestyle, business, and finance. Our clients are credentialed experts and CEOs who want meaningful visibility in credible media — from national television to top-tier podcasts and respected digital and print publications. Founded by Kayley Hamilton, a two-time Emmy Award–winning journalist and former entertainment news reporter, UPLVL operates with newsroom standards: strong judgment, fast execution, clear communication, and accountability for results. We've been featured in Forbes and Business Insider, and we're building an intentional roster of high-caliber clients. Our ethos is: kindness, optimism, growth mindset, proactivity, and elite results. We run on positive energy and a supportive team. We hold Monday morning connection calls (group meditation included). We believe the best work comes from people who are genuinely excited about what they do, who take ownership without being told to, and who lead with integrity in every interaction. If that sounds like you, keep reading. The Role This is an individual-contributor position with full account ownership.
