Job Details

We’re looking for an Account Executive to join an outstanding tech and corporate PR agency in London.

  • Career progression based on merit (work smart, progress fast)
  • Flexible hours, rooftop bar, in-house subsidised cafe 
  • Central role to helping build agency
  • Big brands

Latte                         

Firstly, we completely understand the frustrations of not knowing which agency this role is for (nor the clients and brands you’d be working on). But please give us a quick call and we can reveal this to you with more insight.

First calls are always casual and commitment free. It’s just about giving you a clear understanding of the opportunity and for us to assess whether you’re the right fit for the role. We’ll provide you with upfront and honest detail to guide you in your next move.

About the agency

These guys work with some of the world’s most well-known brands. And it's the agency's strategic thinking and creative campaigns that lures these big brands in. They know how to develop long-term strategies which positions brands in creatively compelling ways to drive audiences to engage.

It’s paying off. In the last year they have grown from a team of 35 people to 50 people and won some goliath tech clients.

Culture
Technology PR doesn't come much better than this. This is a role to fit within a team of 50, giving you that classic fun boutique agency vibe with the capabilities of a global agency. Love your workplace with a rooftop bar, cocktails at 4pm on Fridays and a kick-ass MD. Everyone is there for each other as much as they are their clients. So when you see one team going hard for an event, you’ll see everyone else checking on them, taking treats and helping where they can.

Training & Development
Training and development is at the core of this agency. You'll be giving a helping hand every step of the way and clear guidance on developing your skillset in a number of areas. You'll really be thinking about the how, what and why of what you are doing. 

About the job

This role will work across three core clients. Two of them will be large global technology brands (think along the lines of What’s App, Samsung and Microsoft) and one will be a fast growing tech start-up, fresh out of Silicon Valley.

You will be involved in:

  • Creating influencer campaigns that drive social media engagement
  • Travelling to major trade shows across Europe and potentially the US where you will drive media briefings and create CEO speaker opportunities
  • Meet and build relationships with the business, tech and consumer tech press
  • Sit in on creative sessions and be part of the planning & strategy process
  • Write press releases and create engaging content
  • Work across a variety of projects and ensure deadlines are met

About you

To be considered for this role you will ideally have experience as PR Account Executive working on technology brands. Broader corporate or B2B experience will also be considered.

You’ll understand how to craft a good press release, have started to build some great relationships with tech and business journalists and have a track record in securing great coverage.

You’ll be someone that is hungry to learn the bigger picture of PR, not just focus on coverage but rather understand how to influence brand reputation and the strategy that goes into this.

Benefits

  • Flexible hours
  • Rooftop bar
  • In-house subsidised cafe
  • Sabbaticals for length of service
  • 22 days’ holiday + Christmas shut down + birthday off + an extra day for each year of service

Salary on offer is £20 000 - £24 000 depending on experience.
