Summary Generated by Built In

Sunshine Sachs Morgan & Lylis is proud to represent clients across many industries including entertainment, social good, tech and lifestyle and we tell their stories through a variety of mediums.  We know that even during the toughest times, our responsibility to our clients and each other can bring meaningful and long-lasting impact for those affected the most. We’re proud of each and every campaign we execute, but you may be wondering why we don’t have more than a landing page as our website. While many of our clients are household names (you know them, we’re sure of it), our digital footprint is purposefully small. We fly under the radar and we like it that way.

 

If you are fired up and ready to do good, join us! 


We have an immediate opening for an Assistant to a Partner in the New York City Office. This role requires someone who is incredibly organized and discreet with an interest in social issues, pop-culture and is up-to-date on current events. Most of the work on the Partner's desk centers around managing a complex schedule, A-list talent and entertainment/advocacy clients, new business across many industries and liaising with different high-profile personalities.  We have offices across the US so you’re comfortable managing meetings and appointments across different time zones. You are incredibly flexible and can navigate through last-minute changes. You’re a wiz at booking travel. You also have the gravitas to be “the boss’ boss” 😉. 

Responsibilities Include:

  • Managing the Partner’s daily calendar and arranging meetings
  • Serving as the ‘gate keeper’ to ensure he is operating as efficiently and productively as possible
  • Serving as an extension of his brain keeping track of details on clients, in the office and with personnel
  • Working as support on direct clients in entertainment, impact and technology
  • Creating materials and research as needed to prepare for new business presentations, networking and client meetings.
  • Keeping him organized and on time in a fast-paced environment and packed schedule
  • Managing contacts and learning quickly who the VIPs are (they all are!). Name recognition and understanding of the landscape is necessary is crucial
  • Answering and fielding phone calls and meeting requests  
  • Reviewing news and current events for clients and beyond and flagging them as needed
  • Arranging travel logistics and ability to change them as needed
  • Providing adhoc and personal support as needed

You Should Apply If:

  • You have at least one year working on a desk in a fast-paced environment
  • You are incredibly organized, detail oriented and able to excel at managing multiple projects simultaneously.
  • You value punctuality and find that if you’re on-time, you’re late.
  • You are looking for a career and not a job
  • You have an interest in what’s going on in the world in politics, social good, pop culture, fashion, latest news, entertainment, etc.
  • Great written and verbal communication
  • You enjoy overdelivering rather than meeting expectations and take genuine pride in being part of something good.

You don’t HAVE to have this, but it sure would be nice:

  • Previous PR or talent agency experience
  • Previous hospitality experience

Benefits x Perks

We love to socialize so, we have collaborative workspaces, some offices even have rooftops, celebrations, networking opportunities, and community volunteering.
