Brief Overview
There are not many agencies which are continually voted as best in their sector over multiple years, but this small but delightful agency has done just that, and they’re looking for a Senior PR Account Executive to join their team and continue that winning streak!
You will be an all-round PR practitioner, but this particular role has a real emphasis on the writing side of things, so if that might be you, keep reading.
The role
Our client really focuses on the construction sector, and that’s not just buildings but their clients provide everything that might go into the whole building process and the environmental issues that go along with the industry.
Whilst their roots were as a PR agency, they’ve evolved into being a specialist in all content and so their digital techniques are second to none. This Senior PR Account Executive role will involve traditional PR elements such as media relations, but there is quite a big emphasis on writing, and boy do they love to write! It could be magazine features, opinion pieces, blogs and website copy as well as social media, scripts for videos, content for podcasts or even case studies. Naturally, this will involve research and you’ll be interviewing people to get right into the story, and you’ll also be able to tailor your writing for the most appropriate audience.
As well as writing, you’ll be organising photoshoots, managing content calendars, and working with digital specialists to plan social media campaigns. You’ll also go on site visits, so hard-toe boots and high viz will definitely become part of your wardrobe.
What we’re looking for
We’re really looking for someone with a couple of years of PR experience under their belt. Agency experience would be fabulous, but they’re open to considering candidates from a b2b background especially if there’s any link to construction. Naturally, you’ll be able to showcase your writing abilities, and you’ll also be able to show that you are interested in the sector and that you’ve got a curious mind.
This is a small team environment, so as Senior PR Account Executive be prepared to muck in as and when required with things that might not officially be listed in your job description. This does mean though that you’ll also be exposed to opportunities to broaden your experience – whether that’s appearing in a video, to digital advertising.
