Senior Account Manager - PR

Account Manager

If you love PR, developing and growing accounts, building and delivering exciting work, crafting a strong story, have a passion for writing and want to work in a team that champions great culture and award-winning creativity in equal measure, you could be exactly the bean we need.

We’ll work on a variety of exciting consumer clients, managing accounts day‑to‑day, coming up with ideas and concepts to deliver on client objectives, while honing your client relationship and media strategy skills.

Our Account Managers are a vital part of our team. An eye for detail is important (from good spelling and grammar to managing financial resources), a passion to learn and teach others is a must (you’re a media consumer, keen to attend training, sharpen your skills and enjoy managing junior team members), and you’re not afraid to share your ideas.

About One Green Bean

One Green Bean was first established in Sydney in 2007 and over the following decade became the most awarded PR and content agency in Australia, working with the likes of Uber, Nike, Google, Tourism Australia and Virgin Atlantic.

In 2011, OGB became part of the global communications network Havas and facilitated our founder relocating home to the UK, to launch our offices in London.

We play in a unique agency sweet spot – an agile, independently spirited, owner‑operated agency with the backing and fire power of one of the world’s largest communications groups, Havas. Our clients often call us “a big little agency” and it sums us up perfectly.

Our people make us who we are. We proudly live and breathe our four simple values: Make Shit Happen, Two Steps Ahead, Big Dreaming, Realists, Ambition, Without Ego.
