Responsibilities

• As a Senior Associate, you will implement day-to-day integrated comms activities, carrying out most of the campaign execution and administration, usually reporting to an Account Manager or Senior Account Manager.
• You and your teammates will be the engine of the client campaign, driving activities with determination and enthusiasm to deliver results that will make an impact for the client’s business, and make your team shine.
• Typical activities include: being the eyes and ears of your clients’ industries, ensuring your account teams are up to speed on what’s happening across the wider sector; constantly building your media and sector knowledge and developing integrated comms skills; developing client call agendas before calls; taking detailed notes to map out action items and owners post call; communicating with clients – on the phone, by email and in person; delivering analytics reports; generating results by pitching client stories (by phone and email) to journalists and influencers; writing content for a variety of purposes such as pitches, speaking and award submissions, press releases, blog entries, feature articles and case studies; assisting with clients’ digital marketing programs; arranging and staffing media interviews and events; brainstorming new ideas for integrated comms campaigns.
• You’ll work across a portfolio of around 5-6 clients and will be assigned responsibility for specific areas of each client’s campaign. You will be responsible for generating results, meeting deadlines and developing relationships with clients and the media.
• You will need to manage your time carefully, becoming an expert at keeping lots of balls in the air as you deliver work on different campaigns with different teams.
• When you become a Senior Associate, you will be guided, taking a much more self-sufficient and proactive approach to your work. A Senior Associate owns, strategizes and delivers campaign activities from start to finish, with minimal input from their bosses.
• You will drive activity forward, overcoming obstacles independently and even running small accounts day-to-day largely on your own, including starting to work on budgeting and resourcing.
• The mark of a great Senior Associate is that their managers don’t have to sweat the day-to-day stuff – they know client emails will be picked up, projects will be moved forward, quality results will be delivered and ‘red flags’ elevated - and they rarely need to ask for an update as you’re consistently keeping them in the loop.
