CAREERS

A DYNAMIC TEAM.

The professional atmosphere PROFILES offers is unprecedented. Our open-office environment encourages teamwork, creative thinking, and peer collaboration. The small firm dynamic guarantees that no idea, thought, employee, or client goes unheard. PROFILES is known for developing some of the most innovative and inspiring public relations and social media strategies, advertising campaigns, and event concepts in the industry because our unique approach facilitates out-of-the-box thinking.

SMALL, BY DESIGN.

Because we're a small-by-design agency, we have the flexibility and culture to adapt in a rapidly-shifting industry. Each member of our team is an expert at his or her job, bringing with them a variety of additional skills, backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives. Our social media manager may expand into marketing strategy or brand development, an account executive may develop a digital campaign, a vice president may assist with content strategy. Each person on our team is regularly exposed to a broad array of marketing and communications tactics and learns to troubleshoot client challenges on all levels. Team members are focused on client goals and doing and delivering the best for clients every day. Because marketing is redefined almost daily, our team learns to be adaptive, dynamic, and versatile.

EXPERIENCES OF A LIFETIME.

Due to the size of the company, our interns, employees, and freelancers are integral parts of the team. Every person plays a role in every project, campaign, and program. Our agency is built around clients and consumers, not brands or channels. Every person is client-facing and touches every proposal, event, and big idea. They do critical work to support our clients and in turn, we provide them the opportunity for life-defining experiences like meeting the Today Show crew; releasing rescued seals back into the wild; opening the City's hottest new restaurants; talking to the Mayor about important issues; doing stand-up paddleboard yoga live on TV; being in studio with your local Maryland news teams; rubbing elbows with celebs like Christian Siriano; tasting the hottest new menus; drinking orange crushes on a rooftop bar; and so much more. Our staff is energetic, committed, and excited for the next big moment that becomes a memory that lasts a lifetime.

WITH A TROPHY WALL.

We promote the achievements of the amazing people who are part of our team, via applying to and winning many awards programs including The Public Relations Society of America’s New Professional of the Year Award; The Daily Record’s Top 20 In Their Twenties, Very Important People “VIP” List, and “50 Women to Watch” list; and national trade organization, PRNews’ “15 to Watch” list. PROFILES was also recognized by the Baltimore Business Journal as a top women-owned business. These accolades further credit our team as powerful and knowledgeable mentors for next-generation PR professionals, and they attract new, exceptional talent looking for growth opportunities. We pride ourselves on how we teach and groom young professionals into mentors , as well as truly compelling and influential PR professionals.

We work hard, and we play hard, too - in the form of what we like to call, "PROFILES Fun." PROFILES Fun takes many forms from chips-and-salsa parties and donut breakfasts to team trips to the Baltimore Museum of Art or the National Aquarium. Our leadership team doesn't have to come up with fun things to do, because we ask our employees what fun looks like to them, and then deliver it.
