Caroline Wachira
@carolinewachira1
I’m a senior PR and client relations pro driving coverage and efficient delivery.
What I'm looking for
I’m a PR and Client Relations professional with 10+ years across agency and in-house roles, focused on media coordination, campaign execution, and consistently supporting clients. I manage 15–20 client accounts at once, bringing structure to briefs, deadlines, and stakeholder communication so teams deliver on time.
In my current role as Operations Client Relations Executive, I coordinate PR/marketing campaigns and translate client needs into clear, press release-style messaging. I’ve improved turnaround time by 20% through proactive tracking, resolving issues early, and maintaining organized records in CRM tools for performance reporting.
Previously, as Business Development Operations Coordinator, I oversaw 20 clients/partners and supported onboarding and reporting systems that improved visibility and delivery. I built strong relationships by prioritizing follow-ups, integrating workflows across teams, and staying calm while aligning timelines and deliverables for PR and business development campaigns.
Earlier, as a Media Client Service Project Coordinator, I managed 8–12 accounts end-to-end—planning to delivery—while simplifying concepts for PR/media alignment. I also support digital visibility through social/email and basic SEO, and I’m known for responsive updates via Microsoft Teams, pitching stories, and measuring PR performance to continually strengthen outcomes.
