Editorial Partnerships & Digital PR Manager

Location: Waltham, MA (hybrid)

Small business owners don't have a risk department. They spend their time and energy starting and growing a business. NEXT's mission is to help entrepreneurs thrive, and we're using AI to make business insurance simple, fast, and affordable enough that it never costs them a day of work. We're an AI technology company that happens to also be a fully licensed insurance carrier. Because we're a full-stack carrier, AI isn't a layer bolted onto someone else's product. It's in the underwriting, the pricing, the classification, and increasingly in how the product itself gets built. We're rebuilding the core judgment loops of a hundreds-of-years old industry, and doing it with a lean team, which is exactly why AI matters. We underwrite our own risk, build our own systems, and own the entire value chain, so the product decisions made here show up directly in what a customer pays and how fast they get covered. Since 2016 we've insured hundreds of thousands of small businesses across the country. As a subsidiary of Munich Re and ERGO, our growth is backed by the financial strength of one of the world's leading reinsurance and insurance groups. We're hiring an Digital PR & Partnerships Manager to own how ERGO NEXT shows up everywhere small business owners form opinions about insurance that isn't our own website: mainstream and trade media, buyer guides and listicles, AI answer engines, creator content, Reddit and forums, review platforms and our sports partnerships. This role sits at the intersection of digital PR, editorial outreach, SEO/GEO, influencer marketing and brand reputation. Your mission is simple: identify the publishers, editors, creators and communities that shape how small businesses choose an insurer, build relationships with them and make sure ERGO NEXT is fairly represented — and regularly recommended — when they evaluate providers. Success looks like ERGO NEXT becoming a consistently recommended brand across trusted publications and AI answers, a stronger and more visible executive voice, a healthier public reputation and measurable lift in organic discovery.
