An established, award winning integrated PR and marketing agency based in the south east founded in the 1990s. A small, senior team of four delivering PR, content and digital marketing for B2B and consumer clients, with particular strength in consumer tech, legal tech and AI.
Why they’re hiring
One of the agency’s key clients has been acquired and is growing quickly, which means more demand for coverage and activity. The agency has also recently won a new client on an initial three month term. They want an experienced senior account manager to add capacity, keep accounts on track and support the directors.
The role
This is a hands on, varied role in a small team where everyone wears several hats. You’ll:
- Manage accounts across the client portfolio, not just one client
- Keep the team on track against client KPIs, with a light project management role across accounts
- Be proactive with media: pitching, building relationships with journalists and using the agency’s media database
- Write content, including press materials and thought leadership
- Support the directors with campaign planning and day to day delivery
- Work alongside a part time freelancer already on the team, covering the hours she isn’t available
