- Presentation skills: When communicating ideas to your team you need to organise information in a succinct and interesting way to capture their attention.
- Excellent telephone manner: You will spend a lot of your time pitching stories to clients and journalists, so you need to have the confidence to pick up the phone and speak to them and maintain a positive, friendly and upbeat tone.
- Time-keeping: You will often be working to tight media deadlines as well as meeting the demands and pressures of your team and clients, so you need to be able to work quickly and efficiently, without compromising on quality.
