Bournemouth, United Kingdom BCP Council Full time

From housing to health, social care to schools, finances to flytipping, bins to bike lanes - we work with the media on a huge range of stories that matter to our residents, visitors, businesses and communities. We’re looking for a talented and tenacious Press Officer to join our busy newsdesk - respond to enquires, react to the news agenda and proactively push out positive stories.

You’ll be a PR professional or journalist who can spot a good story, make the most of the current news agenda, spot opportunities and identify reputational risks. We also want someone who can take a proactive and creative approach to PR and build positive and constructive relationships with local, regional and national journalists.

This is an opportunity to be part of a passionate and committed marketing and communications team at an exciting time for BCP Council. In the next 12 months we’ve got local elections, a challenging external environment and an inspiring range of events - such as the biggest air festival in the country - so no day is the same. The work is professionally stimulating: the challenges are real, but so are the opportunities and our determination to succeed.

Confident and adept in dealing with breaking news stories across different channels you will need the ability to think on your feet, prioritise and make informed decisions drawing on your communications experience. You will help deliver proactive media relations activities, plan and secure coverage and support colleagues across the team, which means there will be a requirement to work some weekends and evenings to cover our of hours press office rota.

The role requires a communications qualification (or equivalent experience) with recent relevant experience. Experience of working with media is essential as well as excellent writing skills. We aspire to produce compelling, multi-media communications, so basic photo and video editing would be an advantage.

If you thrive in a fast-paced environment, have a keen news sense and can translate policy into punchy and compelling stories, then we’d love to hear from you.
