£50-55K - Based in the City, close to Barbican and Farringdon stations, this agency is the PR and marketing partner for some of the world's most exciting design agencies who deliver services such as branding, packaging, motion graphics and digital to a wide range of sectors from FMCG to property, retail, professional services, leisure, travel, financial services, and public sector.

You'll lead across 6 accounts all based in London, reporting directly to the MD and you'll manage a team of 2 Account Executives and an Editorial consultant.  The agency began life in Brighton in 2011, which is still presently their main hub with 20 journalists, media specialists and PR strategists, but their aim is to grow the London office which should provide you with an outstanding career path.

It's a pivotal role in the agency and you’ll be taking over an existing account group of clients and joining an existing team, but there is significant scope for growing their presence and they want someone who is as excited by that opportunity as they are.  The role will involve one day a month in the Brighton office, but the MD sits in the London office 1-2 days a week.

About You

You will have spent at least 5 years working in PR, ideally agency-side - and you’ll be looking for a new challenge.  You will understand what it takes to make PR campaigns work. You will be able to confidently guide clients, many of whom are inexperienced at PR, through the complexities and subtleties of a campaign  and you’ll be an inspiring team leader.  You'll currently be either a very experienced and seasoned Senior Account Manager, or an Account Director looking for a new challenge.

What they will Offer

£50-55K - private health cover, company pension scheme, childcare vouchers, cycle to work scheme, and 25 days paid holiday, plus the day off on your birthday.  It's is a lovely place to work, there are frequent social events – from after-work drinks to an annual overseas trip and there’s a fun, happy and friendly vibe in the office
