Job Details

The Company

The strategic communications agency is part of a wider integrated group (with advertising and marketing offerings) and has a really unique approach. Known for their meaty, strategic work, their client base spans huge name accounts across FMCG, personal care, food and drink – think Reckitt Benckiser and Kraft Group foods.

Variety is something that really stands out here – employees can flex their learning with exposure to consumer press office, social/digital, influencer engagement, events, strategic, meaty campaigns and a mix of global and UK work – something you don’t get at that many agencies. 

Another point of difference is that a lot of their campaigns have a slant towards social good/purpose, driving positive change through communications.

Culturally, it’s an extremely inclusive and open environment – the CEO and Chairman sit within the teams and everyone’s ideas are welcomed and valued. If there’s an area you want to develop or excel in this is listened to – your career ambitions and development will be prioritised and supported here. Benefits include:

  • 25 days annual leave  + birthday off
  • BUPA healthcare
  • Bonus scheme
  • Cycle to work scheme
  • Subsidised restaurant and free breakfast between 8am-8.30am
  • Great social events at least twice yearly
  • Wellness allowance of £50 per month
  • Flexible working - work from home one day a week

 

The Role- Consumer AD

We are looking for a strong AD or even SAD – this agency doesn’t have the SAD title so the next step would be an Associate Director level hence the salary bracket.

What’s important for this role is the strategic and creative side, over the execution/project management. You'll be intellectually curious and thrive on creating strategic, insight led and purpose driven communications campaigns. 

You’ll work on flagship accounts in FMCG/food/personal care from a global and UK perspective, so global experience is ideal but not essential. At this level, the ability to combine strong analysis, strategic thinking and planning, with powerful creativity is a must.

Specific skills/experience/attributes required:

  • Experience in developing sophisticated and strategic client proposals ensuring the work is always bespoke and of a high quality
  • Experience working as part of Integrated Agency Teams to ensure that PR takes a lead role in cross discipline strategic planning and have the ability to demonstrate value of this model to clients
  • Proactive: takes the initiative to drive things forward
  • Comfortable giving strategic counsel to senior clients
  • Experience in being part of pitch processes and identifying organic growth opportunities across accounts

In return:

  • A salary of up to £60,0000 depending on experience
  • Blue chip, big brand accounts
  • Global and UK work
  • International offices
  • Dog friendly office
  • Flexible working
  • 25 days annual leave  + birthday off
  • BUPA healthcare
  • Bonus scheme
  • Cycle to work scheme
  • Subsidised restaurant and free breakfast between 8am-8.30am
  • Great social events at least twice yearly
  • Wellness allowance of £50 per month
