PR Account Executive

Zizzo Group

A Future 50 Company and one of the largest agencies in southeastern Wisconsin, Zizzo Group (ZG) is a full-service, creatively driven engagement marketing and advertising agency. Dedicated to connecting intuitively, provocatively and innovatively.

And, more importantly, do something.

We stand as a vibrant collective in the heart of Milwaukee’s Third Ward that continues to invest in our community. Though our heart is local, our reach is global. The agency provides counsel to a wide range of leading regional and national business-to-business and consumer clients.
