Job Description:

We’re excited to announce that we’re hiring more Junior Account Executives to join two of our exceptionally talented teams. Both our Health & Wellbeing team and our Corporate & Responsible Business team are growing, and we’re on the lookout for passionate, driven individuals ready to launch their careers in this dynamic industry. This is a fantastic opportunity to learn, grow, and make an impact from day one.

We’re looking for two JAE’s to join us initially on a six-month contract. Please note this is a PAID placement with a genuine aim to hire you permanently into the business at the end of the six months! From day one you will be assigned to a portfolio of clients and will gain hands-on experience including regular training from some of the best communications and digital professionals in the industry. At the end of the six months you will be promoted to Account Executive in a permanent role (subject to a successful placement). Almost a quarter of the team at Brands2Life started their careers here!

We’re looking for the best and most creative candidates - those who are forward-thinking, detail oriented, eager to learn, and genuinely passionate about perusing a career in PR and working with exciting Health or Corporate brands. We welcome all backgrounds and levels of experience. We’re not concerned with whether or not you have a degree; we’re focused on your talent and potential.

Brands2Life is ‘the agency for the brands transforming our world’ and home to over 100 of the world’s most innovative and dynamic brands. We have over 180 staff in London, New York, Minneapolis and San Francisco. As of December 2023, we became part of the Paritee agency platform, a new kind of network that combines the best of large agency thinking and entrepreneurial excellence.

Like all good agencies we have won many awards for both our campaigns and our achievements. We were particularly proud of our Corporate Comms Awards 2024 for Best Integrated Campaign, as well as our PRmoment’s Large Agency of the Year and Integrated Agency of the Year for 2023 – two of the most prestigious awards in our industry.

Our JAE scheme was also awarded PRWeek’s ‘Best Internship Scheme’ in 2020, 2021 and again in 2022, plus we also picked up PRCA’s award for ‘Best Internship Programme’ in 2022.

We are looking for enthusiasm, drive and creativity as well as a basic understanding of what communications is; who Brands2Life are; and the work we do. You do not need to have experience in communications already, but you will need to convince us you will make the most of this opportunity.
