Passionate about travel? Obsessed with storytelling? Want to work on dream destinations and unforgettable experiences?

This wonderful agency is looking for a bright, proactive and culturally curious PR professional to join their dynamic team, working across a portfolio of high-profile clients in the travel and tourism sector. Whether you're a seasoned Senior Account Executive ready to step up or an established Account Manager seeking your next exciting challenge, I want to hear from you.

A creative communications agency, they specialise in travel and tourism bringing destinations to life, crafting strategic PR campaigns that cut through the noise and leave lasting impressions. From boutique hotel openings to national tourism boards and international tour operators, their client list is both diverse and inspiring.

The team is collaborative, supportive and ambitious. They believe in giving people space to grow, challenge themselves, and develop careers they’re proud of – all while having a little fun along the way.

The Role

This is an exciting opportunity to work at the heart of an award-winning PR team, managing day-to-day client activity and contributing to bigger-picture strategies and creative campaigns.

You’ll work on media outreach, nurturing journalist relationships, crafting compelling press materials and managing client communications with confidence. You’ll also have the chance to get stuck into events, press trips, and influencer collaborations.

Your Key Responsibilities:

• Act as a main point of contact for clients, developing strong relationships built on trust and insight
• Plan and deliver PR campaigns that align with client goals and KPIs
• Write engaging press releases, features, media alerts and pitches that get picked up
• Sell-in stories to a wide range of media across national, consumer, digital and trade press
• Build and maintain strong journalist and influencer relationships
• Coordinate and host press trips, media events, and product launches
• Support new business proposals and attend pitch meetings
• Monitor coverage, compile evaluation reports and offer strategic insights
• Mentor and support junior team members, depending on level

About You

• You have 2–4 years of PR experience, ideally within a travel or tourism-focused agency or in-house team
• You’re a confident communicator, both written and verbal, with a flair for storytelling
• You’re results-driven, organised, and thrive in a fast-paced environment
• You understand the UK media landscape and know how to tailor a pitch
• You can juggle multiple accounts and deadlines with ease
• You’re culturally curious and have a genuine passion for travel
• You’re collaborative and supportive, and enjoy working as part of a close-knit team
• Bonus: You speak German or Italian – not essential but it would be a great asset for some of the international clients

Why Join This Agency?

• A hybrid working model – flexible mix of remote and London office
• A supportive team culture where your ideas and ambitions are always welcome
• A chance to work with globally recognised travel brands and play a part in shaping their story
