Our client experience includes working with Lloyds Banking Group, Superdry, Fortnum & Mason, IMCO (Investment Management Corporation of Ontario), LionTrust Asset Management, Direct Line Group, Deezer, Duke Street Capital, and Global Media and Entertainment.

    • Monitor and analyse client reputations, and campaign performance, providing insights and recommendations for delivery.
    • Identify new business opportunities and lead the development of proposals and pitches.
    • Cultivate relationships with prospective clients, conduct meetings and presentations, and negotiate contracts.
    • Stay abreast of industry trends, emerging technologies, and best practices in PR and communications.

    Requirements:

    • Minimum of 4+ years of experience gained in an agency environment or managing a busy in-house press office.
    • Experience in strategic financial communications (financial calendar, M&A, capital markets activity etc.) would be a distinct advantage, as would an understanding of ESG and responsible investing frameworks.
    • Proven track record of successfully leading corporate and financial PR campaigns and delivering measurable results.
    • Strong strategic thinking and analytical skills, with the ability to develop and execute effective communication strategies.
    • Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to articulate ideas clearly and persuasively.
    • Demonstrated ability to build and maintain client relationships, with a customer-centric approach.
    • Deep understanding of the media landscape, with strong journalist and key opinion former connections.
    • Highly knowledgeable in geopolitics, business, current affairs, and finance.
    • Experience in new business development, including lead generation, proposal writing, and pitching.
    • This role would be a fun, dynamic and diverse opportunity for the right candidate. We're looking for a confident, driven, and dynamic person who can make the role their own.
