Account Manager – B2B technology communications

We’re looking for a smart, tech savvy B2B media operator, with excellent writing skills, a passion for technology and a love of media relations to join a brilliant, growing, communications agency as an Account Manager within their enterprise technology team.

You:

This role will suit someone ambitious, proactive and who really loves telling the story of their clients. You could have a background in journalism or an obsession with technology and how businesses succeed and operate, but ultimately you need to have the curiosity to get under the skin of the businesses you work for, and become a true expert within their sector. Most importantly however, you need to be a really good account operator, ideally with a strong grounding in business to business or corporate communications at agency or in-house.

The agency prides itself on knowing their clients inside and out, so are able to consult, and provide counsel with gravitas to stakeholders and media alike. It’s fast paced, so you will also need to excel in managing day-to-day operations, and be highly organised.

In addition, culture really matters here, so you should be a leader even at this level, taking pride in mentoring and helping to develop junior team members. The agency is collaborative and everyone has a voice – their north star being to deliver work that truly exceeds client expectations.

The agency:

This role is at a multi-award-winning agency specializing in technology, offering comprehensive services in creative campaigns, marketing, and PR. The culture is rooted in courage, compassion, curiosity, candor, and commitment.

Here you’ll have the autonomy to shape your career path, access to extensive training programs, and personalized talent management support. You’ll work with a diverse client base, collaborate across teams, and contribute to an inclusive culture that values innovation and growth.

The role:

In this role, you will lead media outreach initiatives, securing interview, feature, byline, and rapid response opportunities across broadcast, national, and international platforms. You will develop and execute media outreach plans, support on managing client relationships, and oversee project timelines. Additionally, you’ll mentor junior team members, contribute to new business initiatives, and actively participate in the agency’s culture and training programs.

The clients and work:

While the work sits across the whole spectrum of business to business communications, it can vary from client to client.

For example, you could be positioning an exciting HR tech startup as industry thought leaders one day through thought leadership campaigns across national, broadcast and trade media.

Or for a leading tech company and provider of SaaS, you could be working on brand reputation, crisis communications, spokesperson opportunities and proactive media outreach to highlight technological advancements and expertise.

The work is integrated and campaigns are designed not by a playbook, but strategically to deliver the most impact and to reach decision makers within the C-suite. Whether that’s through managing research reports, securing opportunities at webinars or panel discussions, a positioning piece in a national title or even via influencer engagement or social. The channel doesn’t matter, the impact and audience does.

What next?

If this sounds like you, and you’re ready to take your career to the next level with like minded individuals, and want to be part of an award winning technology PR agency with a great culture, apply now.

We will try to get back to as many people as possible, but if you don’t hear from us within one week from sending your application, you unfortunately haven’t been successful this time.

Darain Faraz

Darain’s aversion to confined spaces took root during a fateful screening of ‘Buried,’ a film that immerses its audience in the gripping horror of a man awakening to find himself entombed alive. This intense fear of tight space has left an indelible mark on him. Beyond his mild-claustrophobic tendencies, Darain is also Co-founder of People Like Us, and former Director of Marketing at jobs behemoth LinkedIn internationally. Before his decade+ at LinkedIn, he resided in Australia where he ran comms for WWF’s Earth Hour, and MySpace (remember them?). He’s a regular on Marketing Week + PR Week top 100, has won a raft of industry recognition including the coveted Cannes Lions. But he’s more than his titles and his accolades, he’s a die-hard Kylie Minogue fan too. He has three lively kids and lives in Fiji (yup, you read that right). He also likes to take his shirt off at regular intervals (check out his ‘gram… or better still – don’t).

Mike Levaggi

What could be scarier than being stuck in a toilet cubicle with a wasp nest? Not much for our founder Mike (maybe having his face on a website) but definitely not making our industry fairer. He’s a northerner with Irish and Italian roots. In his 15 years in PR, he’s been a Senior Director of Assembly, head of consumer comms at Snap and a tech & gaming lead at Hope&Glory PR, winning over 50 industry awards. He’s also a former recruiter, the founder of the One Percent diversity initiative and co-founder of the PR Week Pay Gap Project. He’s been called a lot of things, but he’d call himself a problem solver. 

Sheeraz Gulsher

Sheeraz has both a fear and deep fascination of life after death. To face it, he’s taking solace by learning about the origin of world religions and reading the (not so) comforting words of many philosophers. Bit deep, but he’ll be fine, we promise.

Beyond his flirting with existential crises, Sheeraz is co-founder of People Like Us, the award winning non-profit that celebrates and supports professionals from underrepresented backgrounds in journalism, PR and the creative industries. Sheeraz is also an award winning PR professional with over a decade of experience both in-house at Snapchat and Sky, and at agencies including Hope&Glory and PrettyGreen. Sheeraz is a passionate campaigner for equal pay for ethnically diverse working professionals in the UK. He will often mention the one time someone said his celebrity lookalike is Riz Ahmed but in actual fact, he looks more like Bruno Fernandes (minus the sass). Top geezer all round.
