Job description

About BLUE

BLUE is a specialist global B2B communications consultancy for organisations operating in complex, high-value industries - such as maritime, marine leisure, energy and carbon markets. Since 2008, we've turned market expertise into influence and impact, helping clients lead conversations, shape markets and unlock growth.

Our credibility comes from deep immersion, not observation. We get close enough to our clients' businesses to understand what motivates them — and what keeps them awake at night — so we can operate as true consultants, not just a delivery team. It's why our clients stay, and why we've built long-term partnerships across some of the most complex, high-value industries there are.

The role

We're looking for an Account Executive to be an integral, client-facing part of our account teams — the person who knows the status of every action and keeps the whole programme moving. You'll drive activity across your accounts, own the calendar, WIP and reporting, and build a genuine understanding of your clients, their sectors and the wider market.

It's a role for someone at the start of their PR career who wants to learn fast, get properly stuck in, and grow into a trusted communications professional — all while living BLUE's values as a true brand ambassador.

Tasks

• Account management & reporting
  • Know the status of every action — own the calendar of activity, WIP and client reporting, including BLUE's Impact Report template
  • Track, collate, analyse and evaluate coverage, and keep account documents correctly named, filed and formatted to BLUE's brand templates
  • Develop and sustain client relationships day-to-day, and support the senior team with tactical delivery of PR strategy
• Media monitoring & relations
  • Monitor client and BLUE sector media, spotting opportunities for clients to comment or feed into messaging and articles of interest
  • Issue press releases and pitches to targeted contacts, following up with key media by phone and email
  • Own and
