Marlow, United Kingdom ClickJobs.io Full time

Salary: £45k+ (dependent on experience)

Start date: mid-July

You are a PR Account Director with 8+ years of agency experience open to taking on a fixed term role where you can manage the PR and comms strategies of household name retail brands and destinations (and some up and coming brands too). You’re experienced in, and passionate about, both B2B and B2C PR and you’re looking to use and develop these skills in an agency where your talent will be recognised and appreciated.

We are a Marlow-based Integrated Marketing agency on the lookout for a creative but detail-oriented Account Director to provide maternity cover for one of our PR ADs. Someone who lives locally, leads by example and delivers results.

If we sound like a good fit for each other, read on…

What is BWP and why should I work for the agency?

BWP is an award winning destination marketing agency. We elevate brands with impactful, creative strategies that bring people to places to achieve commercial growth. Our PR work supports the growth of brands like Trafford Centre, Gravity, Livingston Designer Outlet, Kärcher and Stabilo.

All our employees enjoy the standard benefits you’d expect – a competitive salary (in this case £45k+); 25 days paid holiday plus bank holidays and an extra day for your birthday; and a pension scheme. Plus, we also offer:

Hybrid working – everyone at the agency enjoys three days collaborating and building strong working relations with colleagues in our new Marlow town centre offices (Monday, Wednesday & Thursday) and two days working from anywhere.

Company bonus scheme (discretionary) – if BWP does well, so do you. Our Account Directors can receive up to 8% of annual salary as a bonus. Company wellbeing programme including a free, confidential counselling service as needed.

A busy social calendar with regular company socials. Summer working hours (4pm finish on a Friday during the summer months)

A culture of appreciation, reward, and recognition with monthly and quarterly awards and celebrations.

Bespoke Personal Development Plans and the mentoring, support and investment you need to ensure you continue to grow and achieve long after this maternity cover role ends.

What do PR Account Directors at BWP do?

Our PR ADs take ultimate accountability of their team, work, accounts and client relationships. You’ll have responsibility for:

Campaign leadership

  • Leading your team to develop and implement creative and effective PR and influencer strategies that drive brand awareness and communicate our clients’ key messages.

Campaign management

  • Working closely with the internal marketing, digital and creative teams to ensure the smooth running and effective delivery of our PR and comms, ensuring all committed timings and KPIs are met and meeting the scope of work.

Client relationship management

  • Building and maintaining strong relationships with clients, ensuring BWP are seen as a valued and respected extension of our clients’ teams.

People management and development

  • First ensuring that we get the basics right and then encouraging your team to push the boundaries, do different and produce better work/results. Providing the mentoring and support they need to develop and grow in their PR careers.

Growing accounts and winning new ones

  • Identifying improvements and opportunities for growth and converting business.
  • Please note * Our PR team are not responsible for delivering social PR campaigns. Our dedicated social team take the lead on that. So if social PR is your background and passion, you may wish to pursue other roles instead.

What do I need to showcase in my CV to stand out?

We’re looking for a multi-skilled PR professional with 8+ years of demonstrable PR experience (with at least 5 years of that being within an agency).

Experience of both B2B *and* B2C PR is essential given the nature of the clients you’ll be working with. Experience working in the retail, fashion, lifestyle and/or commercial property sectors will also stand you in good stead

We’re looking for someone who:

Is creative and innovative, but also has the attention to detail and organisational skills to bring ideas to life.

Collaborates well with other departments to deliver newsworthy campaigns.

Isn’t afraid to challenge clients or briefs. Enjoys pushing boundaries and finding new, creative ways of doing things (embodying our value Brave).

Is passionate about creating an environment where you and your colleagues thrive, develop and grow but also have fun and fulfilment (embodying our value Passionate).

Makes a positive impact – on our clients, colleagues and community (embodying our value Impactful).

Cares about your team, nurturing them to grow, flourish and shine (embodying our value Human).

Can be office-based in Marlow three days a week (Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday).

I’m interested. What happens next?

If this sounds like the role for you and you tick our ideal candidate boxes, please send your CV to our Talent Manager,

We are aiming to appoint the right candidate to start mid-July so there’s as much handover time as possible; therefore, applications will be considered as they are received.

All applicants will be responded to typically within a week of applying.

Successful applicants will be invited to have an interview on Teams with our current PR Account Director and PR Associate Director. Nail that interview and you’ll be invited into the office to present to the PR Associate Director and Business Director. Wow them, and the job’s yours.
