Overview
Associate Director - Head of Marketing Recruitment - B Corp certified | Passionate about People and Planet
Walker and Sloan are once again working with a brilliant PR and Communications marketing agency in Oxfordshire, as they are keen to bring on a full time PR Account Manager.
Account Manager
Hybrid
An award-winning PR agency based in Oxford specialising in digital PR, content, social media, and influencer marketing. Our team of Lightning Catchers thrives on fresh thinking and sharp curiosity.
We believe that in a digital world, it\'s not enough to be top-of-mind, you need to be top-of-find too. So, it\'s our goal to help brands increase their Fame (PR for brand authority) and their Findability (PR for search-everywhere visibility).
We work across some exciting sectors – from inclusive design and sustainable energy to wellness brands, travel, and everything in between. If variety is your thing and the idea of being at the forefront of digital PR gets you buzzing, this could be the job for you.
The role
We\'re hunting for an Account Manager to join our lightning-fast Comms team. You\'ll be the driving force behind integrated retainers and campaigns that don\'t just make noise – they move the needle.
You\'ll be:
* Crafting killer PR strategies that actually deliver
* Masterminding quarterly digital PR story plans that journalists can\'t ignore
* Pitching stories that land in both consumer and B2B media
* The client\'s go-to person (the one they actually want to hear from)
* Juggling multiple moving parts without dropping the ball
* Mentoring junior team members and helping them level up
All about you (our ideal Lightning Catcher)
You\'re someone who gets genuinely excited about creative stories and campaigns and can turn a brief into brilliance. Here\'s what we\'re looking for:
* Experience in an agency environment running PR accounts with creative campaigns, or you\'re a digital PR pro who understands how PR drives SEO results. Bonus points if you\'ve got both in your toolkit.
* You approach every brief with curiosity and aren\'t afraid to push boundaries. You see stories everywhere and know how to make them impossible to ignore.
* You don\'t just deliver coverage – you deliver the right coverage. And when something isn\'t working, you\'re the first to pivot the strategy.
* Clients trust you because you give them smart counsel that builds their confidence in both you and the agency. You\'re the kind of person they actually look forward to hearing from.
* You thrive in a fast-paced environment and can keep multiple plates spinning without losing your cool.
* You share our beliefs about what great communications should achieve and how we should treat each other along the way.
