PR Account Director

Are you curious about the world of business, obsessed with clever communications and passionate about doing good work and building strong relationships?

That’s what this stunning consultancy, with a different approach to most, is looking for!

This role requires ambitious tenacity, attention to detail, client-centricity, and a creative outlook in equal measure. Working in a small team, you’ll be a self-starter and have the opportunity to contribute to the future vision and direction of the business from day one.

This is a small business with big ambitions, not necessarily to be big but definitely to be brilliant.

This agency is Manchester-based but works very flexibly with remote working, although they do get together a couple of days per week.

Core values, cultural fit and approach are key and in terms of desirable skills, the day-to-day will look something like this:

• Building and implementing multi-discipline communications plans to increase brand awareness and recognition for clients.
• Developing relationships with key media to secure and grow media coverage both online and offline.
• Writing press releases for local, national and trade media in the UK and for international media.
• Community management across owned online channels and social media – including scheduling tools such as Hootsuite and relevant evaluation and measurement tools.
• Copywriting for newsletters, websites and brochures.
• Collating and analysing communications and messaging to ensure consistency.
• Studying clients’ competitors’ products and services.

Working across b2b and corporate clients, this multi-award-winning agency’s growth strategy is to work with high-growth potential businesses and the advisers and funders that make this world tick.

Their experience stretches across financial and professional services, property, place-making, manufacturing, tech, and the list goes on, so they’re sector-neutral in that sense. That said, they are pretty particular about the type of business they’d like to work with because they’re honest about where they can add the most value.

You’ll probably have:

• 4+ years’ experience.
• An ambition to shape your own career and influence the way you work and what you work on.
• A passion for creative and innovative work and a genuine interest in finding new ways to deliver clever communications.

In return, they offer generous benefits, training and profit share. They also promise you’ll work with brilliant clients who love what we do for them.
