  • Build strong relationships with travel, lifestyle and consumer journalists, creators and influencers.
  • Develop stories, pitch proactively and secure high-quality media coverage.
  • Support press trips, launches, events, activations and influencer collaborations.
  • Contribute ideas to integrated campaigns spanning earned media, social, influencer and content.
  • Take increasing ownership of accounts while working closely with an experienced senior team.

About You

You'll ideally bring:

  • Consumer, travel, tourism, hospitality or lifestyle PR experience.
  • Strong media relations skills and confidence pitching stories.
  • Exposure to influencer campaigns and/or social media.
  • Excellent writing and organisational skills.
  • A genuine interest in travel, destinations and lifestyle brands.
  • Knowledge of or a personal connection to the Caribbean islands would be highly desirable, but isn't essential.

Why Join?

You'll be joining an established independent communications agency of around 25–30 people, known for creative, integrated campaigns.

The agency works with an impressive mix of major global consumer brands, international travel destinations, hospitality businesses and purpose-led organisations, giving you plenty of variety and the opportunity to broaden your experience beyond traditional PR.

Benefits include:

  • Performance/profit-related bonus
  • 25 days' holiday + your birthday off
  • Christmas office closure
  • Pension
  • Hybrid working – currently just one office day per week
  • Summer & Christmas parties
  • Volunteering days
