  Identify, research and design unique story angles that proactively insert Affirm into the conversation or enable meaningful participation

  Coach executives, providing media training, key message development, and interview preparation

  Strong writer and communicator who is confident pitching ideas internally and externally

  Extraordinary teammate — no job is too big or too small — who is eager to make their mark in a fast-paced organization
