Public Relations Manager in Cheltenham

We’re partnering with one of the UK’s most exciting luxury fashion brands as they look to appoint an experienced PR Manager to join their growing marketing and communications team.

Known for its distinctive British identity, premium positioning and highly engaged customer following, the brand has experienced significant growth and continues to build its presence across fashion, luxury, lifestyle and equestrian markets.

This is an exciting opportunity to join an ambitious, entrepreneurial business and play a central role in shaping how the brand is represented across the UK and internationally.

The Role

The PR Manager will translate the wider brand strategy into impactful PR activity that builds awareness, strengthens positioning and drives desirability.

You’ll take ownership of relationships across fashion, luxury, lifestyle and business media, identifying compelling stories around new collections, campaigns, partnerships, the Founder and key brand moments. You’ll also oversee celebrity and VIP activity, stylist relationships, talent dressing, gifting, influencer seeding and high-profile events.

Alongside remaining hands‑on, you’ll manage and develop a PR team of four, setting clear priorities and maintaining consistently high standards across the function. You’ll work closely with Marketing, Creative, Social and Commercial teams to ensure campaigns feel joined up and the brand is represented consistently across every external touchpoint.

This role would suit someone who combines strong media relationships and excellent storytelling ability with the confidence to lead a team, identify proactive opportunities and thrive within a fast-moving, entrepreneurial environment.

• You’ll be an excellent writer and storyteller, with the ability to turn brand, product and Founder stories into compelling media opportunities.
• You’ll be proactive and commercially aware, understanding how effective PR contributes to wider brand awareness, customer engagement and business growth.
• Experience managing external agencies and developing international media or talent relationships would be advantageous.
• Knowledge of the luxury lifestyle, country or equestrian market would be beneficial but isn’t essential.
