SAM and AM Agency Talent Pool

Account Manager

PR, Public Affairs & Communications Agencies

If a client trusts you to run their account without checking over your shoulder, we want to hear from you.

Westminster Search is building a talent pool of strong Account Managers for our agency clients across PR, public affairs and communications. We are not recruiting for one role — we are getting ahead of the next ten. Join the pool now, and we will match you to a live vacancy the moment it fits.

Why register with this talent pool

• You are matched to relevant roles before they are advertised publicly.
  
• One conversation with us saves you dozens of applications to individual agencies.
  
• We know the agency market in detail, and we only put you forward for roles that suit your experience and ambitions.
  
• You hear about opportunities first, from a consultant who has placed agency professionals for years.
  

What you will be doing, in roles we place

• Running the day-to-day delivery of PR, public affairs or communications campaigns for a portfolio of clients.
  
• Acting as the main point of contact for clients, and managing their expectations with confidence.
  
• Planning campaigns, briefing junior colleagues and making sure work is delivered on time and to a high standard.
  
• Drafting and reviewing media materials, briefings and reports before they reach the client.
  
• Spotting opportunities to grow an account, and flagging risks before they become problems.
  

What clients are looking for

• Solid experience in a PR, public affairs, communications or campaigns environment, typically at Account Executive or Senior Account Executive level already.
  
• Strong client-management skills, and the confidence to push back on a client when it is the right thing to do.
  
• Excellent written English, and the judgement to manage a brief with minimal oversight.
  
• The ability to manage junior colleagues, and to keep several clients moving at once without dropping the detail.
  
• A good understanding of the political, media or policy environment relevant to the agency's clients.
  

How the talent pool works

• Send your CV and a short note on the type of role you want.
  
• We will arrange a confidential call to understand your experience, motivations and salary expectations.
  
• We keep your details on file and contact you as soon as a suitable vacancy is instructed by a client.
  
• You are under no obligation, and we will never put your name forward without asking you first.
