PR Associate Director

Ref: SM1375

This is a brand-new role for the PR agency and is being recruited at a very important time as the senior leaders focus on succession planning for the future.

There's a huge opportunity to take on the role of Deputy Managing Director during 2025, so we are looking for a highly motivated and very experienced PR agency leader.

Your senior leadership skills in a PR agency and natural management experience with clients and budgets will be put to good use in this very well-established agency with hubs in London and Brighton.

Managing a nationwide team of consultants, you'll be excited and motivated by developing team skills and nurturing talent. The team consists of PR professionals who are in the early stages of their career and who need training, development, and attention. It's important that you love this part of your job and have a genuine interest in developing new talent in PR.

Additionally, you'll be laser-focused on the bottom line and possess well-developed new business, client development, and business management skills.

Experience in food and drink, both trade and consumer, would be useful but is not essential. What's key is senior leadership experience and the ability to rise to the challenge of running a successful and growing PR agency.

This position requires one day a week in East Sussex; the rest can be remote. However, it is preferred that the candidate is willing to spend more time with the team, either in London or Sussex.
