Overview

Are you a headline hunter with a sixth sense for what\'s trending before it trends? Do you devour the news like it\'s your morning cereal and live for the thrill of getting a story away before your first coffee? If so - you might just be our next hire. We are on the hunt for a razor-sharp, news-loving Account Manager to join our award-winning team. We create bold, cultural-first campaigns for some of the UK's biggest consumer brands. You\'ll be working on clients including Aldi and easyJet, creating campaigns that get the nation talking. This isn\'t your average PR gig. We\'re looking for someone who can sniff out a media opportunity from a mile away, who lives and breathes the UK news agenda, and who can work magic with journalists, influencers, and talent alike.

What you\'ll be doing:

• Running the show: Day-to-day client management across multiple high-profile consumer accounts - keeping things ticking, campaigns running and clients smiling.
• Delivering coverage: Selling in stories, securing top-tier national and consumer coverage, and nurturing strong relationships with key journalists, editors, and producers.
• Story spotting: Constantly scanning the news cycle and social feeds for hooks, angles, and cultural moments to jump on - and pitching smart, relevant ideas off the back of them.
• Creative collaboration: Working closely with our Newsroom, Creative Dept and Production teams to help bring wild and wonderful ideas to life - from brainstorm to headline
• Mentoring: Supporting junior team members and helping them grow - because you\'ve been there, done that, and know what great PR looks like.

Who you are:

• A news junkie with a passion for pop culture, social trends, and media.
• Someone who\'s worked in a fast-paced PR agency environment - ideally with 3+ years\' experience.
• A media relations ninja - with a bulging black book of UK contacts and a history of standout coverage.
• Sharp-witted, ideas-driven, unflappable - and fun to be around.
