Looking for a senior PR role where you can do your best work without the big-city commute?
My client is an Award Winning East Lancashire based employee-owned PR agency looking for a Senior Account Manager who’s both strategic and hands-on: a proactive problem-solver, quick thinker and skilled communicator who can lead accounts with confidence, creativity and measurable impact.
The agency works on a great mix of advanced manufacturing, defence and public sector. It’s more than a job – it’s a way of thinking, a lifestyle, a family.
You’ll be a natural storyteller and strong copywriter, with experience working in an agency environment and ideally have experience in either the public sector (education, healthcare, or local government) or manufacturing/defence.
You’ll thrive on delivering high-quality campaigns that hit KPIs, strengthen reputations and achieve real-world results.
They believe that happy, healthy teams are more creative and productive — and that equals happier clients.
What you’ll do
* Act as the senior day-to-day contact for your clients, providing trusted and proactive support.
* Lead the planning and delivery of multi-channel campaigns - setting clear objectives and demonstrating measurable impact.
* Write standout content - from press releases and features to thought leadership and digital copy.
* Guide and inspire your team to deliver great work, on time and on budget.
* Spot opportunities, solve challenges and keep things moving (often before you’re asked!)
* Contribute to new business activity, proposals and pitches.
* Play an active role in agency development, bringing ideas and energy to the table.
About you
* A confident communicator with 5+ years’ experience in PR, communications or content marketing – ideally within an agency.
* A proactive self-starter who thrives on variety, pace and responsibility.
* A strong writer who can craft compelling, results-focused copy.
* Experienced in managing senior clients and delivering work to KPIs and deadlines.
* Collaborative, commercially aware and calm under pressure.
* Curious, creative and motivated by making a difference through purposeful work.
* Employee-owned: you’ll have a real stake and a voice in how we grow.
* Purpose-led: we work with clients who make a positive impact, and deliver impact for them.
* Balanced: hybrid flexible working, 25 days’ holiday, and a competitive wellbeing package.
* Grounded: based in beautiful East Lancashire with the freedom to do big-city work -minus the city grind
