HEAD OF PUBLIC RELATIONS - GREAT SALARY + BENEFITS

HEAD OF PUBLIC RELATIONS - GREAT SALARY + PERKS

JOB DESCRIPTION

We are currently searching for a Head of Public Relations to join our growing agency. The role will be to provide leadership to our team, strategic advice to our clients, ensure quality control, deliver successful PUBLIC RELATIONS campaigns, reporting, content, events, activations and social media campaigns for our clients.

Our seven values should resonate with you. They are to be innovative, commit to excellence, tell it like it is, be accountable, be proactive, have a conscience and be human (let’s have fun along the way!)                                              

If the job is right for you, you will be a great leader, strong writer, enjoy building client relationships and be tenacious when it comes to getting a job done. 

You’ll also have a natural interest in media, social media and a curiosity for consumer behaviour.

As our agency is seven years young and growing, we hope the right person for the job will develop their career with us.  You will have the opportunity to attend strategy sessions, new business meetings, brainstorms and agency planning days.  You will see campaigns through from end-to-end as opposed to being a ‘clog in the wheel’.  We are supportive and collaborative and always invest in our people – we love nothing more than to see our team members thrive.                                               

You will work from home or in our Sydney office as needed.
