Epoch AI is looking for a Communications Specialist to help get our research in front of policymakers, journalists, and the broader public by contributing to ad campaigns, media and podcast outreach, our newsletter, social posts, and our website content.
About the role
We are looking for a Communications Specialist to help expand the reach and impact of Epoch AI's research. You will report to our Lead Editor, Elliot Stewart, and work with researchers across the organization on the day-to-day execution of Epoch's communications. Your work will be key to making sure our research reaches the people making decisions about AI.
An ideal candidate will have two or more years of professional experience, at least some of which is in communications, media, or marketing; write clearly and carefully; and know enough about AI to meaningfully engage with our research and draft content about our work.
This role is fully remote, and we can hire in many countries, though we require working hours that overlap with Pacific Time for at least 4 hours during the workday. We invite anyone who is interested to apply, regardless of background, experience, or credentials. Please do not include a cover letter, photograph, or headshot of yourself, or any personal information that is not relevant to the role (including marital status, age, identity traits, etc.).
Applications are rolling, so we encourage you to apply early.
