## Description

QuinStreet is building AI into how people shop for insurance and how agencies and carriers sell it. We need one person to make the market understand it. You'll own the story, calendar, and launches for QuinStreet's AI work, including the askpond.com launch, QRP Professional Services for agencies and carriers, and our presence on AI agent platforms such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Meta.

This is a builder role. You'll write the plan, ship the announcements, place the stories, and turn product milestones into a steady stream of news, data, and executive thought leadership.

Responsibilities

 * Own the AI narrative and calendar: Build and run a rolling 12-month plan of launches, data releases, executive moments, and public stances across QuinStreet, QRP, askpond.com, and AI agent platforms.
 * Lead the askpond.com launch: Own pre-launch, launch week, and follow-on activity, including positioning, the "first" claim, the owned landing page, the wire release, press briefings, and proof metrics.
 * Grow QRP's B2B voice: Create case studies, pursue trade-press placements, and deliver conference talks and webinars for insurance agencies and carriers.
 * Tell the AI-agent platform story: Turn integrations with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Meta, and agent protocols into news, and articulate our position on consumer consent and coverage transparency.
 * Run proprietary research: Commission consumer and industry surveys, and package QuinStreet data into recurring reports that the press cites.
 * Build executive thought leadership: Ghostwrite LinkedIn posts, op-eds, and talks, and prepare and book interviews with business and insurance trade press.
 * Manage the communications machine: Oversee the PR agency, wire service, media lists, owned newsroom, social channels, and the metrics that show what worked.
 * Keep communications compliant: Partner with legal and compliance on claims, regulated-product language, and partner approvals.
