Account Executive - Purpose Led & Sustainability


Location: London (Hybrid)
Contract: Full-time

Are you a rising PR professional who wants their next role to mean something? A purpose-driven creative agency is looking for a talented Account Executive (PR) to join its fast-growing Client Services team — working on a high-profile, career-defining client focused on sustainability and the environment from day one.

This award-winning agency creates brands and campaigns that change behaviour for the better, tackling some of society’s biggest challenges across climate, sustainability and the public sector. Campaigns cut through culture using smart creativity, strategic media relations and integrated paid, owned and earned channels — often amplified by trusted media voices, partners and influencers.

The Opportunity

You’ll join a dynamic Client Services team that sits at the heart of the agency, acting as the bridge between clients and creative teams. You’ll initially focus on one flagship account — a stand-out sustainability brand that will be a major boost to your CV — with scope to broaden your portfolio as the agency continues to grow.

This is a unique chance to build deep expertise in environmental communications while working on work that genuinely makes a difference.

What You’ll Do
  • Create and support press materials, correspondence and client information
  • Share daily news agendas and industry insights with the PR team
  • Spot news hooks and develop compelling storylines for press releases
  • Contribute to creative ideas, campaign platforms and brainstorms
  • Generate content for multiple platforms and audiences
  • Build strong media and social media understanding
  • Support commercial performance by managing:
    • Accurate and timely invoicing
    • Job bag administration
    • Invoice queries and client billing processes
  • Follow and champion the agency’s creative and project delivery processes
Who We’re Looking For
  • At least 1 year’s experience in PR (agency or in-house)
  • Experience in sustainability, environmental, climate or public sector comms or a demonstrable personal passion for these areas
  • A relevant qualification (e.g. environmental studies, sustainability, politics, communications) is an advantage but not essential
  • Genuinely passionate about media relations and current affairs
  • A confident, curious communicator who brings positive energy to teams
  • Highly organised, detail-driven and proactive about flagging issues
  • Strong research skills, including desk research and competitor analysis
  • A working understanding of the project lifecycle and agency finance basics
  • Comfortable using MS Word, PowerPoint and Excel
Why Apply
  • Work on a career-defining flagship sustainability client from day one
  • Join an award-winning, purpose-led agency doing meaningful work
  • Be part of a collaborative, values-driven culture
  • Build specialist experience in environmental and sustainability PR
  • Develop quickly with hands-on responsibility and support
  • Hybrid working and a competitive benefits package
