What you will be doing

• Acting as a key point of contact for clients and internal teams, keeping day-to-day activity moving, coordinating actions and helping programmes run smoothly.
• Taking clear ownership of elements of client projects and programmes, delivering work that meets objectives and feels joined up and well considered.
• Developing a strong understanding of each client’s business, sector and reputation, and using that knowledge to contribute confidently in meetings.
• Staying on top of relevant issues and industry trends, tracking coverage, analysing insights, spotting opportunities and starting to suggest story ideas and angles.
• Building and maintaining relationships with journalists, bloggers, influencers and other stakeholders, and using your growing network to help secure media opportunities.
• Creating clear, engaging content, from press releases and media briefings to blogs, thought leadership and client communications, adapting tone and style for different audiences.
• Getting involved in new business opportunities, from research and insights through to supporting the development of presentations
