If you are passionate about making a difference and have a flair for PR and communications, this is the perfect opportunity for you.

  • Identify opportunities to tell the charity's story and raise awareness, jumping on the news agenda and utilising charity spokespeople.
  • Provide an effective reactive and proactive press office service to journalists.
  • Write engaging, lively copy in the form of Press releases and news announcements to achieve positive media coverage.
  • Plan, coordinate, and deliver press and PR events.
  • Organise media interviews with the CEO and charity spokespeople, providing them with full briefings.
  • Coordinate with photographers and videographers.
  • Maintain media image banks including relevant permissions and usage dates.
  • Collaborate with third party PR teams including Sponsors and Supporters for joint press released and announcements


The Ideal PR and Media Executive Candidate:


We are seeking an experienced PR professional, ideally you will have 12 - 18 months direct PR experience to quickly add value to a small but ambitious marketing team.


We are looking for:


  • A relevant degree in Marketing, English, Journalism, Media or similar.
  • An enthusiastic wordsmith with a flair for writing captivating content.
  • Excellent copywriting and proofreading ability.
  • Passion for storytelling and making a positive community impact.
  • Exposure to PR, content creation, and media
  • Creative and able to think outside the box.
  • A strong work ethic able to recognise the positive impact of your work in helping children and the community.
  • Willingness to learn, be adaptable in your role and take on additional responsibility.


So, if you’re ready to take on this truly rewarding and positive challenge, making an impact in the world of Charity, send us your CV ASAP to be considered for the PR and Media Executive role.
