Who you are

- A keen interest in the world of marketing communications and a passion for creativity
- You have an interest in life sciences, healthcare and/or technology and already have around 1-2 years under your belt in a similar role - you might already work in an agency, or an in house communications team
- You’ll be a whizz with words - strong copywriting is arguably one of the most important skills we’ll be looking for as it underpins all of the work we do, whether long or short form, on social media, for media outreach and content or something else entirely… it all comes down to beautifully constructed letters on a page.
- A passion and real love for all things social, with an understanding of social media platforms and their requirements, and enthusiasm about content
- Have awesome creativity & organisational skills with strong attention to detail
- You’ll be familiar with press, PR and the media having support on activities and campaigns that involve building media lists and securing coverage. Don’t worry if you don’t have direct experience with media outreach and speaking to journalists yet - we’ll help you with that!
- A problem-solving attitude and approach to your day-to-day, but know when to ask for help and bring in your Account Manager for support
- Effective communicator, both verbally and in writing. A team player with a client-centric focus who possesses the ability to build strong and effective working relationships with your teams and colleagues
- The ability to adapt quickly, plan ahead and flag to your team when you see there may be potential sticking points down the line
- This isn’t a checklist! If you don’t match every item we’d still love to hear from you - we can train you (in design, video editing, producing podcasts & copywriting and much more)
