YOUR ROLE:

We are looking for a PR freelancer or agency who is well-connected in the Swiss media industry to help us bring our sustainable travel story to the broader public. We have lots of stories to tell, but we need you to bring these stories on paper and connect with the relevant media outlets to get them published. For this role, it is crucial that you have existing connections in the media landscape and can help us write articles and interviews specifically targeted or exclusive for each newspaper or magazine. To help you write about us, our founder and team members in Europe will be available for interviews with you. Depending on the specific story, we may also connect you with our sustainable tourism partner organizations in Africa and globally, conscious travellers who’ve been on a trip with us, or other relevant contacts in the areas of sustainability and/or travel to obtain their perspective.
