Talented, diverse people
Edelman people are simply the best: committed, diverse, and
always interesting.
Top-notch reputation
Thanks to our continuing quality efforts, more than 98 percent of our clients say they would recommend Edelman to their colleagues. We have received top awards from the International Public Relations Association, the Public Relations Society of America, PRWeek, and The Holmes Group.
Work-life balance
We believe balancing our personal and working lives is the key to continued good health, increased productivity and creativity, and overall job satisfaction. That’s why we offer great benefits, know the importance of Living in Color, and engage in probono work that makes a difference.
High-quality work
From consumer product branding to public policy campaigns to health education, our work is consistently recognized as innovative, creative, and best-in-class. Experience some of our award-winning programs to learn why.
Innovative, entrepreneurial culture
Our entrepreneurial spirit is based on encouraging our staff to be innovative, take risks, and pursue the powerful idea. Got an idea for a new program, product, or practice? You can make it happen here. From our powerful programs to our numerous blogs to our recent work in cutting-edge social media, Edelman people think big and act boldly.
Global presence
If you’re a PR professional with knowledge of or interest in cultures beyond your own, you’ve come to the right place: our global assignments account for 50 percent of our revenue. Not only will your work at Edelman cross borders, span oceans, and touch down in our offices in 46 countries, but you can also earn the opportunity to live and work in another country.
The pursuit of excellence
Throughout our long history, Edelman has always pursued quality in all we do, from our ethical approach to business to our commitment to Pioneer Thinking.
World-class clients
At Edelman, you’ll have an opportunity to work on major, groundbreaking client projects across all industries. As our recent award-winning work demonstrates, our clients are some of the best known in the world.
Tremendous growth opportunities
At Edelman, we’re always learning, from our re-energized Edelman University to our Mentoring program. The big idea: continuous education means richer career development for our people. We afford our employees the ongoing opportunity to grow into other positions throughout the company, to move into a different practice, and to work in another country through short-term and long-term assignment programs.
Independence
At Edelman, independence is at the heart of everything we do. As a family-owned company, we answer only to our clients, not to an advertising agency or a marketing conglomerate. We measure our success solely by our clients’ successes.
