Job description

Are you a Digital PR Executive looking to join one of the North’s most exciting and established integrated agencies?

Permanent

Leeds

We’re excited to be working with one of the North’s most exciting and established integrated agencies as they continue to grow their Digital PR offering, and so looking for an ambitious Digital PR Executive to join a highly regarded team in Leeds.

The Digital PR Executive is the perfect opportunity for someone who loves finding a story, understands what makes journalists take notice and wants to build their career within a creative, fast-moving agency environment.

You’ll join a growing digital team, working with a mix of well-known and ambitious brands both globally and nationally to create PR activity that earns attention, strengthens online visibility and delivers measurable results.

What you’ll be doing

No two clients or campaigns will be the same. You’ll get involved in everything from spotting topical opportunities and researching new angles to creating stories and getting them in front of the right people.

Day to day, you’ll:

• Research news, trends and opportunities for clients
• Come up with ideas for PR stories and campaigns
• Write press releases, pitches and supporting content
• Build relationships with journalists and media contacts
• Carry out targeted media outreach
• Secure relevant online coverage for clients
• Work alongside PR, SEO, content and digital specialists
• Track results and learn what makes a campaign perform

Who we’re looking for

Previous experience in digital PR, traditional PR, journalism, content or media outreach would be advantagous, along with being a great writer, naturally curious and a confident communicator. You’ll enjoy generating ideas, have an eye for what could make a good story and be motivated by seeing your work land.

You’ll also need to be organised, proactive and happy working both independently and as part of a wider team.

This is an established and successful agency with the energy and ambition of a growing business. You’ll be surrounded by experienced digital and creative specialists, with plenty of opportunity to learn and develop rather than being left to figure things out alone.

There’s a clear route for progression within Digital PR, backed by regular development conversations, hands‑on support and training.

You’ll also receive an excellent overall package and working environment, including hybrid working, your birthday off, regular team lunches and socials, wellbeing support and additional lifestyle and travel perks.

This Digital PR Executive position is a brilliant opportunity for someone looking to make their mark in Digital PR and develop with one of the North’s most exciting agency teams.
