PR Executive

About the job

About Us

Morning Star BrandCom is a communications advisory firm specializing in corporate reputation, crisis preparedness, and strategic media relations. We partner with businesses that take their reputation seriously — from legacy institutions to high-growth challengers — helping them communicate clearly, credibly, and consistently in a world of constant scrutiny.

We’re looking for a PR Executive who is analytical, articulate, and intellectually curious — someone who understands that great communication isn’t about spin, but substance.

What This Role Involves

You will work alongside a senior team on mandates that include corporate positioning, issue management, media engagement, and thought leadership. The role involves both thinking and doing: researching, writing, tracking, and engaging across multiple workstreams.

This is not a creative ad agency job. It’s an opportunity to contribute to the kind of communication that shapes reputations, influences perception, and earns trust — often in high-stakes or high-visibility scenarios.

Key Responsibilities:

• Support corporate communication strategies through media research, content development, and outreach
• Draft briefing notes, media pitches, responses, FAQs, and backgrounders
• Monitor news cycles, identify reputational risks, and track client coverage
• Maintain and update journalist databases, industry notes, and press kits
• Assist in preparing clients for media interactions and public statements
• Participate in internal and external meetings, keeping tasks and timelines on track

Who This Role Is For

We value skills over labels — and welcome candidates from PR, consulting, client servicing, or other client-facing, research-heavy roles. What matters is your ability to think clearly, write well, and navigate complexity with confidence.

You’re likely a good fit if you:

• Are an excellent communicator (written + verbal) with a nose for nuance
• Can break down complex issues into clear, actionable ideas
• Are thorough with research and comfortable working with limited information
• Stay calm under pressure and are quick to adapt
• Take ownership of tasks and timelines without being micromanaged
• Are interested in how companies shape public perception, handle scrutiny, and build credibility over time

Nice to Have (Not Musts)

• Prior experience in PR or communications (internships count)
• Exposure to corporate affairs, journalism, public policy, or legal/compliance-driven work
• Understanding of India’s media and business landscape

What You’ll Get Direct exposure to strategic communication work with decision-makers

• A chance to work on real issues that matter to real businesses
• Mentorship from experienced professionals in a collaborative, low-ego environment
• Opportunities to grow into advisory and client-facing roles over time

VERY VERY IMPORTANT: We will absolutely judge you if you apply without reading the Job Description. And please know this is not social media or influencer marketing, not even close.
