Cheltenham

This organisation is an award-winning PR and communications agency whose aim is to help businesses tell their story to multiple audiences in order to achieve the best outcome for their clients. They manage corporate reputations; support businesses through growth, re-structure and change; and help organisations communicate effectively with each other and their stakeholders. Organisations can be telling the same story to multiple stakeholders, but will have different ways and tones of communicating for each audience. This is where they would come in. They are one of the largest and most established corporate communications businesses in the UK, with offices in York, Birmingham, Cheltenham and London. Their two main areas of focus are B2B/corporate comms and public affairs. B2B/Corporate: they are trusted advisors to their clients, providing them with strategies and advice to help with their internal and external communications - ultimately creating a favourable view of their business, project or strategy amongst stakeholders. Public Affairs: they manage the interactions their clients have with politics and the political sphere. This can be anything from local councils to central governments. They have this side of the business because most of the work they do is around the built environment and infrastructure and with that there are loads of stakeholders involved in these projects. On this side everything they do has a political focus whether its campaigning on specific issues to consulting with parliaments. The Account Executive Role They are hiring an Account Executive to join their growing team in Cheltenhem, working on a variety of accounts and projects. Over time, your key skills will grow - and knowledge of their clients along with it - as well as your understanding of the complex make-up of clients’ stakeholders and the nuanced and subtle messaging and comms that need to be created and delivered to each. You will learn to understand and navigate the media and communication channels relevant to each of their client accounts and to understand, in detail, the context, current affairs, approach, tone and tools required to ensure the best results and most impressive commercial outcomes. AEs will get to know the key contacts and influencers and ensure they stay in touch with editorial, local sentiment or political and policy changes. You will also keep track of relevant freelancers, community groups, bloggers and columnists who are important to their clients’ work. You should feel at ease talking to the media and stakeholders, discussing a client’s business or projects in a way that supports a client’s objectives. You will learn to understand the differences between how to achieve news, feature, promotional and other types of coverage, and to maximise all opportunities, including an appreciation of how to communicate in a crisis. Likewise, on a planning project, you will develop the ability to understand the way in which policy and planning comes about and the different layers of decision-making (local/regional/national).
