Description

Our PR & Social team is growing - due to exciting new business wins - which means that we're on the lookout for an experienced PR Account Executive, ideally with home and lifestyle experience.

As our new Account Executive, you'll help us deliver awesome results across consumer PR channels.

We're looking for a collaborative colleague, who will share a passion with our clients on understanding how their businesses work and how to communicate with clarity and creativity.

All while working alongside some of the most creative talent in the region, at the world's most effective and creative agency, with responsibility for supporting a portfolio of exciting national and international accounts.

Why would you want to work here?
McCann Milton Keynes is part of McCann Central, the UK's largest integrated agency. Over 500 individuals working together to help brands play a meaningful role in people's lives.

We're also part of McCann Worldgroup, a global agency network that delivers culture-shaping work for some of the world's biggest brands.

And to add to the (literal) wheelbarrow full of awards we've got including Euro Effies most effective global agency, Cannes Network of the Year, Campaign's European Integrated Agency of the Year, not to mention McCann Central's haul of awards in recent years at Cannes Lions, Clios, One Show, D&AD, LIAs, Golden Drum & Creative Circle Awards.

So creativity really is at the forefront of everything we do.

We're a team of passionate creatives, strategists and project managers from a wide mix of backgrounds. But there's a lot that unites us - like caring deeply about everything we make. And though our skillsets are wide and our process knowledge is deep, we are all still learning every day.

Responsibilities will include, but not be limited to:

Building great relationships with clients
PR content creation
Media relations and regular sellins with key media
Providing briefs for other departments / external service providers
Helping account managers and directors ensure work is on time and top quality
Researching key issues and trends
Reporting and evaluation

You'll have established consumer PR experience, ideally in the home and lifestyle sector.

You'll be a confident communicator with a keen eye for detail and strong organisation skills. Good time management and a basic knowledge of the latest digital and social media channels are also a must.

Benefits
In addition to a competitive salary, we are committed to creating a brilliant environment for all our people.

This includes benefits such as 28 days holiday, plus the opportunity to take additional fully paid leave, enhanced pension contributions, private healthcare, hybrid working, life assurance, and much more.

A culture of learning and development is also central to our ethos, so you'll have access to industry leading training and development programmes, plus you'll get to work closely with the world's biggest media partners to access exclusive features and products.

Most importantly, you'll be part of a fun and collaborative team and you'll work in an environment where you are supported and developed.

Our commitment to equal opportunities

For us, diversity is a business imperative - one that must be embedded into every aspect of how we operate in order to drive success.

Simply put, we believe an encouraging and inclusive environment makes sound business sense.

As a globally integrated community that influences and shapes culture, it's vital that the talent mix in our agencies encompasses all dimensions of diversity, and that we demand the same of the people we work with.

Conscious inclusion encompasses social, cultural and cognitive differences and cultivates an ethos of belonging, connection and shared purpose.

It is the integration of this philosophy that allows us to create meaningful experiences for our employees, drive better business practices with our vendors and clients, and ultimately lead with purpose.
