The PR team's job is to find the stories worth telling and make sure they reach the right people.
They're looking for a PR Executive who enjoys the pace of a busy press office and knows that a good story rarely arrives neatly packaged in your inbox.
The Role - PR Executive

About You - PR Executive
You'll have solid PR or external communications experience and a good instinct for what makes a story. You're comfortable speaking to journalists, working with senior people and turning complicated information into clear, engaging copy.
You'll be curious, organised and commercially aware. You can manage the daily demands of a press office while still finding time to look up, notice what's happening in the wider world and suggest an angle nobody has picked up yet.
The package includes 25 days' holiday plus bank holidays, the option to buy more leave, pension contributions, life cover, wellbeing support and a health plan. There are also optional benefits including dental and critical illness cover.
