Vacancies
We’re looking for a Senior Account Executive!
Lee Peck Media is an established PR agency based at Southampton Science Park in Chilworth. We work with an exciting mix of clients across housebuilding, technology, renewables and the charity sector – and we’re growing.
We’re looking for a Senior Account Executive, or an Account Executive ready to take the next step, with 3–4 years of PR experience. Whether you come from an agency, an in-house team, or a journalism background, we’d love to hear from you.
What you’ll be doing
Day to day, you’ll be at the heart of our client work – crafting press releases, case studies, articles and social content, and developing compelling story angles to pitch to media. You’ll build and nurture strong relationships with key journalists, stay across the latest PR tools and trends, and bring genuine knowledge and curiosity to each client’s sector.
You’ll also support the development and delivery of PR strategies, contribute to regular client reporting, and act as the key point of contact on smaller accounts. Expect to work with a wide range of stakeholders, including at senior level.
Who we’re looking for
You’re a confident communicator – in writing and in conversation – with the ability to take complex or technical information and distil it into clear, compelling media messages. You’re organised, creative, fast-thinking, and comfortable working to deadlines. Above all, you’re someone who builds trust easily, whether with clients, colleagues or journalists.
Your main role will be helping us to continue on an upward trajectory: managing day to day client relationships; supporting the senior team on the planning and delivery of strategic campaigns and securing high profile media coverage.
