SaD / Associate Director – b2b / corporate PR. £70K+ Bens

Are you an ambitious PR leader who thrives on both high-level strategy and rolling up your sleeves to secure top-tier coverage?

We are a boutique, all-senior PR agency looking for an Associate Director (or SAD ready to step up) to join our growing team. Because of our unique, top-heavy structure, there is no place to hide—and no limit to the impact you can make. You will be a true hybrid: capable of architecting comprehensive paid and organic strategies one minute, and getting on the phone to pitch a tier-one media exclusive the next.

If you are a builder who wants to network, win new business, and ultimately grow and lead your own team, this is the perfect platform for you.

The Role

As Associate Director, you will bridge the gap between traditional PR and modern digital communications. You will take ownership of client accounts spanning Entertainment, Digital, Tech, and Marketing, leveraging your expertise in B2B and soft corporate communications.

Key Responsibilities:

• Media Relations: Prove you’ve still got it. Proactively pitch and secure high-impact, tier-one media coverage for our clients.
• Strategic Planning: Design and execute comprehensive communication strategies that align with our clients’ commercial goals.
• Digital & Social: Develop and implement high-performing organic LinkedIn strategies.
• Paid Media: Construct and oversee paid media plans in vertical outlets that amplify earned coverage and drive lead generation.
• Business Development: Actively network, identify opportunities, and pitch to win new business.
• Leadership & Growth: Lay the foundation for expansion. We are looking for someone with the ambition to build, mentor, and lead a team beneath them as the agency scales.

Who You Are

We are looking for an entrepreneurial, commercially minded PR professional who isn’t afraid to get their hands dirty.

The Ideal Candidate Will Have:

• Proven experience at an Account Director, Senior Account Director, or Associate Director level within a PR agency.
• Deep expertise in B2B and soft corporate PR. Experience in tech an advantage.
• A track record of successful media pitching—you are a practitioner, not just a delegator.
• Demonstrable experience integrating digital, social (specifically LinkedIn), and paid media into traditional PR campaigns.
• A natural flair for networking and a hunger for new business development.
• The ambition to grow and shape a team.

Why join?

• Autonomy & Impact: Work alongside a team of seasoned experts without the red tape of a massive network agency.
• Fast-Tracked Growth: This role is designed for an ambitious leader who wants to build their own division.
• Dynamic Client Roster: Work with exciting, forward-thinking brands across vibrant sectors.
• Flexibility in a grown up environment. On site 2 days a week, lots of flex and balance.
• Learning and development programme so you don’t stagnate
• No need to manage any juniors!
