NEW ROLE: PR Account Manager that are interested in CREATIVE, STUNTS, EXPERIENTIAL, GLOBAL PR work.

The opportunity

This role is ideal for someone who is in a consumer PR role but wants to lean more into creative multi-channel global campaigns. Essentially, you’re bored of pure press office accounts and want to sink your teeth into global strategy, huge stunts, events etc. The company you’ll be joining is truly brilliant – think tight-knit team, annual company trips, early finish Fridays all-year round, flexi-hours and all around a generally inspiring, culturally tapped-in group of people.

Salary: up to 40k DOE

What will I be doing?

As an Account Manager you will primarily be responsible for client & project management day-to-day, and leading on the delivery of campaigns. You will be working on massive drinks and FMCG brands that cross over into pop culture and sports, and the work will mainly be about tapping into new audiences and reinforcing brand love.

The beauty of this agency is that they’re not just a press office agency. The work is incredibly varied and, on some accounts, you’re acting as the global developing toolkits for in-market activations. You will need to be a big-ideas person, that’s able to get under the skin of a brand and guide the team on how to meet client’s objective. This role requires exceptional organisational skills and (this is bit is critical) and will involve lots of client handling.

Who do I want to hear from?

This is a consumer PR role so I only want to hear from consumer PR specialists (please!). Sadly in-house candidates won’t be considered unless you have had a recent tenure at an agency. Ideally you will come with global brand experience and be able to speak the language of big brands. Perhaps you’ve come from an integrated background having worked cross agency to deliver huge campaigns, and you’d like to join a smaller agency where you have more of a voice. Or maybe you feel your creative skills are being wasted at your current agency and need somewhere new to spread your wings. I want to hear from you.

Amazing sales opportunity with fast growth financial services company: no cold calling and 1st year OTE of £100K

ACCOUNT DIRECTOR – CORPSUMER/CORPORATE – PUBLIC RELATIONS - up to £50k

The company I’m recruiting for is one of the most reputable and longest-standing UK PR agencies in the industry. It’s a recognisable top 25 name that features on every PR week league table and the client roster is equally impressive. This is a brilliant opportunity for a high energy and knowledgeable Account Director to join this agency’s growing corporate team.

Why should an Account Director apply for this role?

Firstly, you’ll get the prestige of a networked agency behind you so if you’re currently at a larger agency and enjoy the perks that come with working at this type of company, this will be a great move. Alternatively, if you’re at a boutique agency and are looking to explore what it might be like to work in a fully integrated agency with more resource, and the opportunity to work on high value, blue chip brands, this might be a welcome change. And if its benefits you’re after, this agency offers one of the most robust benefits packages in the industry that goes beyond hybrid working and performance related bonus schemes. This is a progressive and inspiring place to work, where work/life balance is respected, and development opportunities are plenty.

Salary for this role – 45-50k DOE

What is the agency looking for in the Account Director?

This role is perfect for someone who has a mix of corporate and consumer (corpsumer) experience at Senior Account Manager that has really strong client servicing experience and is able to run multiple big integrated campaigns. This is a role suited to someone who is very hands on but is commercially astute and strategic. You will need to have recent and preferably long-standing PR agency experience – this is a role that is not suited to candidate from pure in-house backgrounds. Ideally you will have worked on big complex client accounts, on a mixture of reputational, crisis, stakeholder relations and thought leadership, and be competent at this.

In conclusion…
