Join the Network

Our client, a dynamic and innovative consultancy operating across public affairs, political intelligence, and media strategy, is seeking a talented consultant to join their team as either a Senior Account Executive or Account Manager.

This agency is a forward looking and pioneering place to work; their offer to clients is somewhat different and more strategic than many of their competitors. This role is a great opportunity for a consultant who would like the chance to work in a more considered and less tactical way, and also offers the prospect of working across a range of policy areas.

The role will entail:

  • Access to a high quality of work for engaged and committed clients across a range of sectors;
  • The opportunity to develop compelling engagement strategies and campaigns;
  • Managing on-going contact programs with parliamentarians from both houses, as well as the media and other key stakeholders;
  • Monitoring developments across the policy landscape and providing succinct and highly informed updates to clients.

The ideal candidate will have:

  • Experience in frontline politics, whether as a parliamentary aide or with a party headquarters;
  • Experience of public affairs, either in-house or within a consultancy, ideally working on a generalist basis;
  • Highly developed communications skills (including the ability to write compellingly and to a very high standard);
  • A deep understanding of the impact which policy changes can have on businesses, and the commercial imperatives under which companies operate.
