I’m looking for the right person to join my team at Niche Communications as a part-time Account Coordinator.
I’m incredibly proud of this business and the work we do for some of the Sacramento region’s most beloved nonprofits and small businesses. I’m really excited to have a reliable person on my team to share in the wins and continue to grow this business alongside me. This is a super flexible role, perfect for a self-starter with great attention to detail and a desire to learn. This role will range from 12-15 hours per week, with room to expand both the hours and responsibilities.
As we grow, there’s potential to lean into the parts of this work you love most – whether that’s creative storytelling, social media strategy, project management or something else we dream up together.
About Niche Communications
Since 2016, Niche Communications has specialized in full-service PR/Marketing for organizations that are leaders in their industries and powering local change in their communities. Our clients include amazing nonprofits, membership-based associations, and small businesses, with a focus on the aviation, craft beverage, and real estate/development sectors. We proudly partner with organizations that champion innovation, diversity and community progress. If these values excite you, you’ll feel right at home.
Job Overview
Social Media & Content Creation. You’ll take ownership of our clients’ social media calendars, including drafting posts, scheduling content, and keeping accounts active and on-brand day to day. You’ll update our team’s templated graphics in Canva and feel comfortable making graphics of your own.
Project Management & Coordination. You’ll help keep projects on track by building monthly activity summaries, tracking deadlines, keeping client assets organized in our project management tools, and maintaining our media contact lists. I value your ideas about improving our systems as we go.
Writing & Research. This position is writing-heavy. In addition to drafting social media posts, you’ll craft content that spans a range of different formats. Blog posts, press materials, web copy, e-blasts – you’re comfortable writing it all. You can easily adapt to different brand voices and standards, and you understand how to tailor messages with specific audiences in mind.
In-Person Support. While nearly all work is remote, we’ll plan on one in-person meeting a month (Sacramento Area) as needed, to plan and strategize. You’ll also be my right hand at the occasional client event. Whether it’s a beer festival, airshow, photo shoot or a press conference, they’re always super fun and one of the coolest parts of the job.

- Strong attention to detail. You have a sharp eye for typos and inconsistencies, and you appreciate systems and love a deadline. You take personal ownership & accountability.

- Excellent verbal and written communication skills. You can go from writing a professional email to an AP-style press release to an eye-catching Instagram caption, all in one sitting.
- Personal computer for remote work.
- Must reside within the Sacramento Region, with the ability to meet in person and work at client events, as needed.
