Job Description
Sunshine Sachs Morgan & Lylis is proud to represent clients across many industries including entertainment, social good, tech and lifestyle and we tell their stories through a variety of mediums. We’re proud of each and every campaign we execute, but you may be wondering why we don’t have more than a landing page as our website.
