Salary: TBC
HLS is looking for PR warriors to join our growing agency and team. As a PR account manager/senior account manager, your role will focus on both business and consumer clients. Working in a team of five, alongside our head of content and social media manager, you will actively support a variety of power brands, including an international hotel chain, online retailers and eCommerce in luxury fashion, motoring and vehicle insurance, as well as purpose-led work with our international NGO clients.
Requirements and experience
- Ideally, you are Cape Town-based for this Cape Town office role.
- You have worked at a PR agency before (four to five years) and understand timesheets, agency processes, etc.
- You have media relations experience and contacts to help drive publicity for your clients.
- You can manage and host meetings with clients, global execs, and senior staff.
- Run day-to-day account management, oversee events, project manage client activities and campaigns, and ensure weekly and monthly PR/campaign reports are delivered on time.
- Manage and work closely with and brief our agency suppliers (graphic designers, videographers, photographers, events, and webinars).
- Be confident, bubbly, and a people person with a good sense of humour.
- Understand the content and various channels: what makes a good story, blog, interview, podcast, emailer, executive LinkedIn post, etc.
- Attendance and involvement in new business pitches will take place from time to time to add variety and fun!
- Strategy and planning: the ability to plan ahead and compile campaigns – think content calendars, understand the communications ‘golden thread’, the core campaign messaging, and how to optimise content for audiences and stakeholders to deliver ROI.
Established in 2019, HLS is only five years old but has quickly established itself as an award-winning PR and marketing agency. Our global clients include SAP, Cisco, United Nations (UNDP), Amazon, Radisson Hotel Group, and many more.
Our agency by-line is: 'creative communications for clever brands'. And that is exactly what we do. We provide a range of communications services across multiple platforms and channels for some of the world’s biggest power brands.
Our team comprises PR managers, social media influencers, SEO specialists, graphic designers, copywriters, and news journalists. Times are changing, and so is the era of the 1990s press releases and red-carpet events. We intelligently craft and amplify content across multiple publishing networks. We create content that captures audiences with the right hook, and then we select the best platforms and channels across the best line, to deliver the ultimate campaign sinker.
Agency life and culture
At HLS, teamwork definitely makes the dream work! This is evident when entering the office to find our team pictures proudly displayed in the entrance area, our iconic (yellow) office décor and fun social gatherings showcased on our active social media channels. We have agency employee awards and programmes to 'raise the PR-bar' and our standard of work. We also have not one, but two employee events per year (mid-year and year-end), twenty-one days holiday leave, and year-end bonuses.
Feeling inspired? Let’s connect.
