Reporting to a Senior PR Manager in the External Relations team, you’ll be responsible for developing and implementing media relations campaigns for your areas of responsibility.

You will manage media relations for designated business areas and industry groups and support the wider External Relations team on corporate campaigns.

Specific responsibilities:

  • Develop, manage and execute PR strategies for assigned areas, ensuring they are in line with the firm’s priorities, objectives and wider corporate campaigns.
  • Influence and support marketing and research activities, developing new ideas with the relevant teams to ensure newsworthy insights and coverage.

Here are the professional skills and requirements you’ll need to demonstrate:

Essential:

  • Experience in public relations (gained either in-house or within an agency) or journalism.
  • Excellent writing skills that will be tested during the interview process.
  • Strong interpersonal skills, with ability to build solid relationships, manage junior members of the team and gain credibility with stakeholders at multiple levels.
  • Evidence of leading on the development and implementation of strategic media relations plans.
  • Strong attention to detail and a willingness to be proactive in order to get the job done. Interest in the news agenda and networking to build journalist contacts.

Desirable:

  • Be a creative thinker with high standards and someone who has excellent attention to detail.
  • Highly organised individual able to successfully manage multiple stakeholders and projects under time pressures.
  • Commercial awareness and a solid understanding of the business landscape for Deloitte and the wider economy, with a grasp of the role PR can play in supporting the firm’s objectives.
  • Confidence to stand firm and say no when needed, while remaining diplomatic and consensus-driven.
  • Experience in public affairs, including political engagement and monitoring would be an advantage.
