Public Relations Account Director

Job Description

PR Account Director, £40,000+ (DOE), Birmingham/ Hybrid

PR Account Directors… I am delighted to be working with this fantastic PR agency who are a real up and comer on the Midlands PR agency scene. A boutique agency looking for an influential figure within their small but mighty team, to lead key client accounts and oversee the delivery team to ensure the most exceptional service is provided to their impressive clients. If you are looking to join a small, specialist team and make a real impact with your strategic thinking and passion for hands on PR delivery… get in touch!

This agency is not typical in its approach. They have a nose for storytelling and think far beyond the confines of traditional PR, extending their expertise into broader content creation and broadcast opportunities. They know what makes ‘newsworthy news’ and they help businesses and brands across a range of sectors to identify the angle that will get them seen and heard.

What you’ll be doing:

Managing key client accounts

- working with an impressive remit of b2b clients across a range of industry sectors, this role requires a PR pro with outstanding relationship building skills, who enjoys nurturing client accounts, protecting relationships and leading with total credibility and gravitas to ensure clients feel safe in your capable hands.
Writing

- and not just writing for the sake of writing but writing with purpose, vigour, excitement and intent. Writing for all kinds of platforms (press releases, articles, thought leadership, features, social content, interview scripts, pitching notes, briefing documents…). Writing in a way that is representative of the client in question and positions their brand exquisitely through written word. A passion for writing should be in your blood and in your bones.
Communicating

- with everyone! You’re the kind of person who knows how to initiate, grow, protect and nurture relationships with other people. Whether you are communicating with a client, a journalist, a presenter or a colleague… you know how to build rapport and you love to grow your network at every opportunity.
Generating impressive coverage

- whether it be national, local, specialist, TV, radio or anything in between, you will utilise your impressive and constantly growing network of contacts to generate coverage left, right and centre. And then you’ll revel in the reward of seeing your work everywhere you look!
Working with the team

- whilst some days you might like the quiet of your own company to smash out exceptional content or get stuck into planning a juicy project, you will also thrive in the company of other exceptional minds and work collaboratively with your team to deliver a standard of work to your clients which exceeds all expectations. As a PR Account Director, you will lead by example and ensure high standards are set for your junior colleagues.
Ideas, ideas, ideas

- always thinking, creating, conceptualising, you are the kind of person who wants to throw yourself into an environment where your voice is encouraged and your visions are bought to life.

With a host a fab benefits, a beautiful office environment and a hybrid working set up (2-3 days a week in office)… what’s not to love! Salary £40,000+.

Get in touch today if you are a PR Account Director looking for something new and exciting, or a Senior PR Account Manager ready to make the step up.
