The company
We’re Keep Left - an independent Creative PR agency with a really big appetite for IMPACT.
We create impact through a unique brand of communications that fuses PR and creative together to create; ideas that impact, ideas that get talked about, ideas that generate momentum and ideas that make a difference.
It’s our belief that every Leftie should leave work each day feeling like they’ve made an impact - not just on their team or clients, but on their career, their life, and the world around them.
There’s 45 Lefties across Melbourne and Sydney, and we have a healthy, thriving culture built around our five core values: proof of impact, go that little bit further, co-create, care for the craft, and watch each other’s backs.
About the role
We’re seeking an ambitious and experienced PR account manager to work across our expanding portfolio of clients across technology, finance, property and NFP.
This is a great opportunity for a creative and adaptable communicator who is seeking a new challenge, professional development, interesting client briefs and mentoring from senior experts.
As an account manager, you will be the engine room of your client's campaigns and always-on programs - responsible for day-to-day client experience in line with the Keep Left way.
We're looking for a strong writer with a natural hunger for corporate storytelling. You will be a highly organised and consistent project manager, with excellent communication skills and an innate ability to influence and inspire clients and coach your team.
Our preferred candidate would have a well-established little black book of media relationships and be able to demonstrate examples of campaigns managed to achieve great impact. You'll have a minimum three years’ experience and be hungry to take the next step in your career within an integrated agency.
Key Selection Criteria:
Minimum of 3 years’ relevant work experience
Excellent communication skills and client management
Strong professional writing, organisation and project management skills
Sound knowledge of the media and established journalist relationships
Strong leadership potential
Salary $68-80k incl Super, commensurate with experience
