Looking for a senior PR role where you can do your best work without the big-city commute?

My client is an Award Winning East Lancashire based employee-owned PR agency looking for a Junior Account Manager or Account Manager.

The role is ideal for a Junior Account Manager who is eager for a step up or an established account manager. They are looking for a proactive problem-solver, quick thinker, and skilled communicator capable of developing accounts with confidence, creativity, and measurable impact.

The agency works on a great mix of advanced manufacturing, defence and public sector. It’s more than a job – it’s a way of thinking, a lifestyle, a family.

You’ll be a natural storyteller and strong copywriter, with experience working in an agency environment and ideally have experience in either the public sector (education, healthcare, or local government) or manufacturing / defence.

You’ll thrive on delivering high-quality campaigns that hit KPIs, strengthen reputations and achieve real-world results.

They believe that happy, healthy teams are more creative and productive — and that equals happier clients.

• Support the planning and delivery of multi-channel campaigns.
• Write standout content – from press releases and features to thought leadership and digital copy.
• Support the team by delivering great work, on time and on budget.
• Spot opportunities, solve challenges and keep things moving (often before you’re asked!)
• Contribute to new business activity, supporting the development of proposals and pitches.
• Play an active role in agency development, bringing ideas and energy to the table.

About you

• A confident communicator with 2+ years’ experience in PR, communications or content marketing – ideally within an agency.
• A proactive self-starter who thrives on variety, pace and responsibility.
• A strong writer who can craft compelling, results-focused copy.
• Experienced in working with B2B clients and delivering work to KPIs and deadlines.
• Collaborative, commercially aware and calm under pressure.
• Curious, creative and motivated by making a difference through purposeful work.
• Full UK driving licence.
