Join the Pierce PR Team
Since 2015, Pierce has been one of Nashville’s leading PR firms, partnering with companies nationwide to deliver strategic, results-driven campaigns. Today, we specialize in AEC and professional services, bringing deep industry expertise and senior-level counsel to every client relationship. For driven professionals looking to grow, innovate and make an impact, this is a place to do the best work of your career.
Our standards are high, and we expect everyone on the team to consistently deliver the caliber of results Pierce is known for — outcomes our clients depend on and we can be proud of. We also know that great work comes from enjoying what you do and who you do it with, which is why collaboration and enjoying life outside the office are just as much a part of our culture as the work itself. All client-facing roles are based in Nashville, so we can keep building the kind of team that challenges, supports and celebrates each other, whether we’re swapping PR and marketing ideas or our favorite spots for happy hour.
Yes, we want to be the best at what we do, but we also want this to be a team you’re excited to show up for every day.
