Make your mark as a Senior Account Executive in the PR & Communications sector, based in Brisbane.
Brisbane's PR and communications scene has grown up fast.
Clients now expect agencies to run integrated campaigns across earned, owned and social, not just pitch stories to journalists.
This SME communications consultancy has built a steady reputation over years of client work, and it's now looking for a Senior Account Executive to help manage that growth without losing the close-knit feel that got them here.
Here's what you'll be doing: Manage a portfolio of client accounts day to day, acting as a reliable point of contact for campaign updates and queries Write press releases, media pitches and client reports that need minimal editing before they go out Build and maintain relationships with journalists, editors and industry contacts across Brisbane and beyond Support senior team members on strategy development, then take ownership of delivering agreed plans Track coverage results and pull together performance summaries clients actually want to read Brief and mentor junior account staff on tasks and client expectations Here are the skills you'll need: Two to four years' experience in a PR or communications agency, ideally with some account management under your belt Sharp writing skills.
You should be able to turn a dry brief into a story someone wants to read Confidence pitching to media and handling client conversations without needing a script Solid organisational skills, because you'll be juggling multiple accounts and deadlines at once A genuine interest in current affairs and the ability to spot an angle before anyone else does Comfortable working across hybrid team structures, coordinating with colleagues both in the office and remotely Key perks and benefits: Salary of A$32,000 to A$40,000, depending on experience Hybrid working arrangement, giving you flexibility around where you do your best work Private medical insurance and pension contribution Structured career development within a business that's actively growing Generous annual leave and a genuinely balanced approach to work-life integration Why pursue a career in PR & Communications?
PR & Communications rewards people who can write fast, think on their feet and read a room.
Brisbane's growing business and media landscape means there's no shortage of client work here, and a Senior Account Executive role is exactly where you start building the client relationships and strategic instincts that carry you into account management and beyond.
Few sectors offer this pace of learning this early in a career.
