The Role

We’re looking for an Account Executive to join a leading communications agency that delivers strategic, high-impact campaigns across sectors like low carbon, renewables, transport, education, housing and sustainable development. This is a great opportunity for someone early in their career to gain hands-on experience across client accounts, working as part of a collaborative and supportive team.

You’ll play a key role in helping to deliver communications and consultation projects — from writing content and coordinating events to conducting research and supporting wider campaign delivery. You’ll work closely with Account Managers and Directors to ensure everything runs smoothly and clients receive work that’s thoughtful, high-quality, and aligned with their goals.

If you’re a strong communicator with a keen interest in politics, planning, or purpose-led communications, and you’re ready to build your career in a fast-paced agency environment — this could be a great fit.

Skills and Experience

• Some experience in a communications, PR, or stakeholder engagement role (internship or agency experience welcome)

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills

• Highly organised with strong attention to detail

• Confident working to deadlines and managing multiple tasks

• Comfortable communicating with a range of stakeholders, both internally and externally

• A genuine interest in politics, public affairs, and current affairs

• A proactive, can-do attitude and willingness to learn

• Able to work effectively as part of a team and take ownership of your work

• Bonus points for experience with event coordination, report writing or social media content creation

Benefits

Alongside a competitive starting salary, you’ll be joining a friendly, ambitious team that offers great support, structured development, and clear progression opportunities. You’ll also benefit from a range of perks including:

• 25 days holiday (plus your birthday off and additional days with length of service)

• Hybrid working approach

• Private BUPA healthcare (with option to cover family)

• Life insurance (4x salary)

• Cycle to Work scheme and EV salary sacrifice

• Contributory pension scheme (5% employee, 3% employer)

• Employee support services including Toothfairy and MyStrength

• Enhanced parental leave (100% pay)

• Regular team socials, company away days, and shared celebrations

• Structured career planning with ongoing training and development

• Opportunity to work towards a profit-based bonus scheme
