Salary range

£30k - £41k DOE

ARE YOU THE NEXT BOTTLER?

With an increasingly online world, brands can’t rely on being at the tip of peoples’ tongues. They need to be at their fingertips too. We call this fame and findability.  Our digital PR stories bring our clients’ brands one link closer to their potential customers. We work across consumer brands like Rowse Honey, Gousto and Goodyear as well as business orientated firms like Drax (renewable energy), LeasePlan and PPL PRS.

We are digitally led, thrive on original ideas, and we’re growing. Which is why we need another ‘lightning catcher’ to join us. We do things differently. We call our account managers ‘lead publishers’ and our account directors ‘editors’. They craft narratives and campaigns, working with our in-house content designers and planning & insights team, to deliver results across all earned channels (social, digital pr, onsite content, influencers). We prize imaginative, brand-led, emotionally engaging ideas that make our clients’ stories reach further. 

 

Main Responsibilities

We’re looking for an account manager to work across an exciting range of accounts crossing business and consumer sectors.

Your role will include:

  • Supporting on PR, influencer and social strategy

  • Quarterly digital PR story planning

  • Drafting content for media, onsite and social

  • Pitching media stories to consumer and B2B media

  • Overseeing social media content and channels

  • Influencer engagement and management

  • Managing the client relationship and reporting

  • Juggling client requirements and additional projects

  • Mentoring of juniors to build the team’s overall skills and abilities

What we’re looking for

  • A proactive, capable pair of hands to lead day-to-day activity

  • A proven track record in delivering integrated client strategies across multiple channels

  • A good eye for a news hook

  • Detailed understanding of the media landscape and journalist appetite for a story

  • Interest in the news agenda and trends impacting the comms industry

  • Examples of great written content for multiple channels

  • A basic understanding of digital platforms such as Google Analytics, social management systems, Answer the Public and SEMrush (and an appetite to learn more) is a benefit

  • At least 2+ years PR experience

MORE OF WHAT WE CAN OFFER YOU

  • Bespoke external and internal training programme for your personal and professional development

  • Great opportunities for progression

  • Hybrid working as standard, 3 days in office in Oxford, 2 days working from home (Mondays and Wednesdays)

  • 5 weeks holiday (plus birthday day off, and ‘3 for 2’ days off over Christmas)

  • Contributory pension

  • Health cash plan

  • Audible & House of Wellbeing subscriptions

  • Relocation support package if you want to get closer to Oxford 

  • Cycle to work & EV salary sacrifice scheme 

  • All-day snacks

We invest in spending time together out of the office – including the infamous summer away days. Recent trips have included Wilderness Festival, a country house in rural Wales and this year… Morocco!

Ways of working

In a post-pandemic world, we’ve opted for a ‘3 in, 2 out’ model where you will spend 3 days per week working with the team in our Oxford office and 2 days (Mondays and Wednesdays) working remotely from anywhere.
