Career Opportunities

Career Profile: Lance Buckley

There have been a lot of great things happening at Pierce Mattie PR over the past several months. Our fashion and accessories division seems to be multiplying in size daily, and the home division is going strong. I started to think back where the firm started and where we are now. "Wow!"Then I realized that my three year anniversary is right around the corner. I thought it only fair that I reflect back on the past few years.

I left another well known New York PR firm because I wasn't growing, and the lack of opportunitys. Since I joined the team at Pierce Mattie PR, I’ve gone from an account executive to a director, all while launching some major accounts. I remember my first day as though it were yesterday. It was a cool winter morning when I met up with Constance, another director at the firm. Immediately, I felt welcomed by her and our client, which I was helping to take around on a media tour that day. It was that warmness, something I didn’t expect, that has kept me here so long; that and the fact that it really feels like a home. I guess that’s because most of us have been here growing together over the past several years, unlike other firms who have a constant turnover in staff.
