Junior Account Manager Remote
Job description
Do you love PR but hate the long hours and lack of a work/life balance? At Lem-uhn, we believe that you should be excited about Mondays rather than getting the ‘Sunday night dread’. We’re a small and growing team passionate about helping businesses that make a positive impact in the world get the attention they deserve. We’re looking for a confident, passionate natural leader with killer journalist contacts, great writing, and the ability to manage multiple clients. The right person will be eager to make a real impact in an up-and-coming agency and is looking for the opportunity to get involved in various areas of the business to support strategy and growth.
The Role
- Managing client accounts and building strong and open relationships
- Writing press materials
- Pitching to the media and securing coverage in top-tier titles
- Contributing to new business proposals and pitches
- Managing client budgets
- Helping junior team members grow and develop
- Building and nurturing relationships with journalists and influencers
- Creative strategy planning
The Right Candidate:
- Strong consumer journalist relationships
- Experience in regularly securing top-tier coverage
- Strong writing skills and the ability to tailor writing for different formats
- Highly organised and the ability to juggle multiple accounts
- A friendly and confident people-person
- Self-motivated and hardworking
- Creative, with an eye for knowing how to use creativity to secure startups coverage
- Link building experience
- Previous experience in influencer engagement and PR event planning is a plus
Why Lem-uhn?
- The opportunity to progress quickly and learn about all aspects of a PR agency within a small and growing agency.
- A happy agency with an open dialogue to assess your workload and ensure it’s manageable within work hours.
- Flexible working options: At Lem-uhn, we believe that happy people can do their best work. Work shouldn’t be the boss of your whole life and we want to encourage you to have a fulfilling balance between your work and personal life, which means you can flex your hours and location.
- Less admin than other agencies: We use efficient practices to take the boring tasks out of PR to ensure our intelligent and amazing employees are using their time well rather than wasting it. What can be automated, should be, and you should be helping to build the processes to do so.
- A sustainable agency: We acknowledge that there is a huge issue with our carbon impact on the environment, and as an agency, we offset all of our employees’ impact with that aim in mind, meaning you’ll be carbon negative by working with us.
- A menstrual policy: We believe people who experience debilitating menstrual pain shouldn’t be penalised. We provide flexible working solutions plus up to ten days' leave for debilitating periods or menopause symptoms and pregnancy loss.
- 23 days holiday plus 2 wellness days that can be taken with only a day's notice.
