Splendid Communications, an exciting and passionate PR Communications agency, is looking for a talented Account Manager to join the team.

In a world of fast scrolls and short attention spans, shouting louder isn’t a strategy. Real impact comes from knowing how to show up in the moments and conversations that matter to people.

At Splendid, we build earned-first ideas that connect with real people, in the places they spend time. We help brands shape stories that people share, that change perceptions, spark actions and drive results.

We believe the best brand-building happens when strategy, creativity and delivery are pulling in the same direction.

That’s why we created the COUNT framework. It keeps every idea culturally sharp, commercially wired and alive, well beyond the pitch deck.

Because conversations that count aren’t coincidental. They’re engineered for impact.

The successful individual will have the opportunity to make a huge impact working on high-profile food, drink, lifestyle and consumer tech clients, and covering the full range of creative briefs from always-on activity to major campaigns.

What you’ll do

·         Own day-to-day client relationships and keep your Account Director informed on progress, risks and next steps

·         Drive campaigns and always-on activity forward—briefing, delegating, building timelines and keeping delivery on track

·         Create and manage content and media collateral (social/media copy, imagery, video) in line with brand guidelines

·         Lead on media relations: spot reactive opportunities, pitch and sell-in stories, and build strong journalist relationships

·         Manage third-party suppliers (briefs, contracts, POs, invoicing) and ensure internal processes are followed

·         Support budget and resourcing management across accounts, helping ensure work is delivered on time and to budget

·         Lead by example and help develop junior team members
