Monitor the media landscape closely (e.g. economic shifts, policy changes, travel trends), identifying opportunities to insert clients into ongoing conversations with insight led commentary.
Translate complex data and insights into clear, compelling narratives, while guiding a junior in the team, and collaborating with senior stakeholders across to deliver consistent, high-quality output.
A bit about you:
Experience in a media relations heavy PR role (agency, corporate or government), with a clear understanding of the media landscape.
Proven ability to develop and pitch data led stories, confidently interpreting and distilling complex information into compelling narratives that resonate with journalists.
Established relationships with media and a genuine passion for pitching; comfortable picking up the phone, managing high volumes of outreach, and securing meaningful coverage.
High attention to detail and ability to thrive in a fast-paced, press office environment, balancing multiple deadlines while mentoring junior team members and collaborating across teams.
What’s in it for you:
Real flexibility to work when and where you feel most productive with our ‘Be the Best You’ policy which includes a $250 contribution to your home office set up.
The opportunity to give back with dedicated volunteer leave and our whole-company event, One Day for Change.
