About the role Angi is seeking an exceptional public relations expert to help our brand break through – using the voice and visibility of our co‑founder, Angie Hicks.

This role will execute Angi’s PR strategy, managing our agency to drive high‑impact earned media opportunities across consumer and business outlets.

But more than that, this person will act as a strategic partner and talent strategist for Angie Hicks herself — identifying and executing opportunities that elevate her profile as one of the most trusted and relatable voices in home improvement.

From traditional media placements to new frontiers like podcasts, stunts, and brand partnerships that make news, the Head of PR will be responsible for proposing and managing the right tactics for Angie and Angi to thrive.

This role reports directly to Angie Hicks, sits within the PR team, and works in close collaboration with the company’s Brand team on social, influencer, and partnerships.

Successfully pitch Angie Hicks and Angi to traditional and new media outlets where she and the brand have been mainstays, increasing our share of voice month over month and year over year.
