Account Manager

Job Description

Scriba PR – an award-winning B2B communications agency – is on the hunt for our next account manager.

Working across the globe – and with a client roster that includes trailblazers from sectors including technology, engineering, the environment, and construction – our down-to-earth team isn’t just good at writing. We also understand the complex world our clients operate in too – take a look at some examples.

Our campaigns are results-driven, and Scriba’s account management team listens to our – extremely varied – client base to deliver campaigns that will increase market share, launch a new product or service, attract or retain staff, or position a company for takeover, to name just a few.

Collectively, we have a real flair for what we do, with a rich blend of skills and talent that complement each other. We’re a team that sees the solutions, not the problems – and make sure every word counts. Meet our team, here.

We’ll often refer to ourselves as ‘the critical friend’ – being honest means we say it like it is and do the right thing, rather than being ‘yes men’.  We like to call it Scriba sense.

For example, we:

• Helped build an employment law brand for sale
• Assisted in raising a seven-figure investment in a leading martech brand
• Write a monthly column in Demolition & Recycling International
• Developed a ‘viral’ social media campaign for a telecoms leader
• Reworked an entire technical client’s website in under 24 hours
• Increased a European commercial interiors expert’s website traffic by 344%.

Is this the kind of work you want to get involved in?

B2B PR account management experience is an absolute must (ideally two years’ minimum), as well as a flair for engaging B2B copywriting (including blogs, press releases, features, award entries, guides etc) and pitching to the media, and the ability to take/provide comprehensive briefs and undertake thorough research.

It helps if you have a familiarity with website CMS’ such as WordPress, as well as Google Analytics, and an understanding of campaign planning, management and execution.

The successful candidate will be:

• Passionate about the written word with an unswerving attention to detail
• Patient, positive and hard-working
• A self-motivator with an abundance of initiative
• A great communicator (face to face, over the phone and via email)
• Committed to learning
• Results driven as well as task driven
• Efficient, organised and time conscious
• Loyal and honest
• Willing to support colleagues and get stuck in
• Capable of understanding varied writing styles, with a great grasp of the English language.

What’s in it for you?

There are a whole heap of benefits we offer that we like to shout about too.  As well as a competitive salary, regular pay reviews and a workplace pension, we offer flexible working as standard (and have done since way before COVID-19), your birthday off ‘for free’, and one day of paid leave to volunteer for charity, per month.

You’ll also benefit from a tailored personal development plan, defined role progression, mentoring, staff socials and plenty of 'outside the box' rewards/treats. And it all takes place from our vibrant office in a converted textiles mill, with private breakout/creative space available, plus free parking, discounted gym membership, on-site spa, deli, and hair/beauty salons.

Or, if you want to adopt a more traditional approach, please send a CV and cover letter to Louise Jaggar via email: louise@scribapr.com. Any questions, please call 01484 489333.
