Senior Account Executive – B2B and HealthTech -c32k DOE

JFL Search & Selection Ltd; London; Hybrid; GBP 125,000 - 150,000; Full time

Job description

We are currently seeking an ambitious and driven individual to join a B2B & HealthTech team in London as a Senior Account Executive. You will be at the centre of a talented and award-winning team working across the agency’s exciting portfolio of health and technology clients. The ideal candidate will have a broad range of both health tech and B2B experience – the following fields are all important: HealthTech as well as broader B2B (ideally Fintech/professional services/finance). Longer term you will be working on more HealthTech/Science and Innovation clients, so keen the passion is there. However, there may be a shorter-term need to support with broader B2B/Tech, hence the broader range, keen to find someone with a strong and diverse range of media contacts to work across those areas. We’re also keen to work with someone who has a passion for working with clients across a broader range of B2B fields including cleantech, science and innovation. They are an international agency with offices in New York and LA and a network of partner agencies around the world.

The successful candidate will have:

• Agency-side experience (min. 2 years) working with health and technology brands, helping to drive coverage across both trade and national media.

Responsibilities:

This is a perfect role if you already have a reputation as a media hound. You will be motivated to continue to develop your passion for media relations, through your ability to identify and tell a compelling story and through investing in your contact book of national news, business, technology and trade reporters. You will also have a passion for writing and a solid understanding of the role that social media plays in modern B2B PR campaigns. As an SAE, you will not be pigeonholed and will have the opportunity to develop and hone essential PR skills.

What we’re most looking for:

• Someone who devours the media throughout the day and loves media relations.
• Organised: a forward-planner, a lover of deadlines who can see around corners to stay on the front foot.
• Someone willing to invest in meeting media, influencers and agents to build a black-book of personal contacts.
• Someone with excellent attention to detail, especially in written work.
• Agency-side experience (min. 2 years) working with health and technology brands, helping to drive coverage across both trade and national media.
• Excited to be directly involved in pitching for new clients.
• Culturally curious – excited by new trends, publications, industry events and channels.

Personality:

• Motivated by delivering meaningful work for meaningful brands.
• Solutions focused: presents alternatives in the face of challenges.
• Driven by the role that communication can play in driving real business results and social change.
• Enjoys working and collaborating with a team in person and contributing to agency culture.
• Values personal and professional accountability and owns the tasks they’ve been given.
• Understands the importance of giving and receiving constructive feedback.

Our team are smart, original thinkers who support and inspire one another.

Remuneration & Benefits:

• Starting salary: c. £32K based on experience.
• Core hours: Hybrid, 3-days in office including Thursdays, 2 days working from home.
• Holiday: 25 days annual holiday entitlement.
• Health Insurance: Vitality comprehensive medical insurance, including:
• 50% subsidised gym membership.
• Private dental insurance.
• Optical cover including £500 for new eyewear (glasses, contact lenses, sunglasses) per year.
• Mental health cover including unlimited around-the-clock support and in-person therapy.
• Remote Working Allowance: £250.
