Are you a proactive, organised and ambitious PR Account Executive ready for a step up?
Hound is looking for a Junior Account Manager with all those qualities. Read on to see if we’re the right fit for each other.
First of all, who is Hound?
We’re an independent PR agency that helps clients out-think, not out-spend, their competition.
We work with household names like Vodafone, Well Pharmacy and Purplebricks. Different sizes, different industries but all with the same expectations: smart thinking, clever work and measurable results.
Our work combines PR, social and SEO, but we don’t treat them as separate disciplines. If we secure coverage, we think about how it works socially. If we create content, we think about how it ranks and drives visibility. Everything we do earns attention and drives impact.
More importantly, we’re a friendly, down‑to‑earth team. We work hard and we don’t overcomplicate things.
So, what’s the role?
This is a great opportunity for someone with solid agency experience who’s ready to step up and grow their role beyond that of the ‘traditional press office’.
You’ll work across a range of client accounts - helping deliver everything from corporate PR and creative consumer campaigns to content and creator partnerships - supporting the senior lead while taking increasing ownership.
You’ll help drive media outreach, coordinate creator collaborations, draft high‑quality comms and ensure nothing slips through the cracks.
You’ll have senior guidance and mentorship, but you’ll also need to show initiative and think ahead.
