  • Pitch stories that land – we're seeking someone who has a genuine interest in building connections with journalists and influencers that matter, writing compelling angles and building media relationships
  • Writing that connects people – whether it's a media pitch, press release, Q&A, LinkedIn post or internal brief
  • Think and strategise – spot trends and turn insights into actions to uplift clients' reputation
  • Keep teams accountable – update WIPs, prepare reports, track timelines and keep the team one step ahead
  • Collaboration, collaboration, collaboration – work closely with all agency teams to deliver great work, together

What We're Looking For:

  • Minimum 3 years' experience in PR, comms or media (agency preferred)
  • Experience working with financial and professional services brands
  • A strong writer with a nose for news, who enjoys shaping stories and hitting the right tone
  • Someone who knows how to work with journalists and build media relationships

  • Someone who is proactive, curious and ready to take the lead when needed
  • A genuine interest in corporate PR, reputation and how brands show up in the world
