Account Executive - PR & Social Content

My client, an award-winning communications agency, is on the lookout for a bright and driven Account Executive with a genuine passion for the automotive world. This role offers a unique opportunity to work across some of the industry’s most forward-thinking car brands; from iconic manufacturers to next-generation innovators – helping shape how they tell their stories across media, influencer channels, and social platforms. If you consider yourself a bit of a petrolhead, are fascinated by electric vehicles, or have a growing interest in the industry's transition toward net zero, this is a role where your personal interests and professional ambitions can genuinely align.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Crafting compelling pitches to generate media coverage across print, digital, and broadcast outlets
• Building and nurturing relationships with journalists, influencers, and content creators – especially within the automotive and innovation space
• Monitoring industry trends, campaign activity, and competitor coverage to keep clients ahead of the curve
• Drafting press materials, media alerts, and messaging documents with clarity and creativity
• Supporting the planning and delivery of press and media events, including managing logistics and guest attendance
• Coordinating product or experience loans with media and influencers – ensuring seamless execution across multiple stakeholders
• Assisting in influencer engagement, from initial outreach to tracking content performance and measuring impact
• Monitoring and reporting on media and social coverage, and supporting regular reporting to clients
• Providing general account support – from maintaining status docs and writing up call notes, to ensuring deadlines are met and communication is clear across the team
• Supporting the creation of social media content calendars and, where needed, helping to manage channel activity

What We’re Looking For

• Around 6 months to 1 year experience in a PR, communications, or PR social media role (internship experience will also be considered)
• A confident communicator with strong writing skills and attention to detail
• A curious mind and genuine passion for media, culture, and storytelling
• A proactive approach; comfortable taking initiative and handling multiple tasks at once
• Someone who is organised, efficient, and capable of managing deadlines across several accounts
• Team-oriented, positive, and ready to contribute to a collaborative agency culture
• A basic understanding of social media content and platforms with a desire to learn and grow in this area
• Interest or affinity with sectors like automotive, lifestyle, tech, or sport is a plus

This is an opportunity to join a creative and ambitious agency where ideas are valued, and no two days are the same. The salary band for this role is £26-30K basic salary, depending on experience and skillset value. There is also a discretionary bonus of up to £3,600 per annum with exceptional benefits and perks expected from an award-winning agency. You’ll work alongside a supportive team who are passionate about delivering great work, with room to develop your skills across PR, social, and influencer engagement. If you’re looking to build your career in an agency that combines strategic thinking with creativity and want to help shape how innovative brands connect with their audiences, then we’d love to hear from you.
