Position:
Consumer Games Account Executive
Location:
100% Home-based
Reporting to:
Account Managers for our Consumer Division
What’s the Opportunity?
We have an exciting opportunity for a passionate gamer to contribute to the success of our consumer client accounts. As the landscape of video game public relations shifts away from traditional media coverage, we’re seeking someone to help us continue delivering media coverage and develop complementary new services such as community management (on Discord), social media management, and video editing.
The candidate needs to be a self-starter, have excellent communication skills, and be interested in learning how to develop creative story ideas and PR pitches. You will work with several consumer clients (retained and project-based), spanning PC, mobile, console, VR/AR, wearables, Kickstarter, and more. You will report to the senior members of the account team, work alongside the agency directors on the day-to-day account work, and support the wider agency team where necessary.
This role supports the broader team in client relationships, driving media and influencer attention for their titles in exciting and creative ways.
Role Summary
We’re looking for a dynamic, passionate person who wants to develop their future career within PR and marketing in the ever-expanding global games industry.
You will work directly with the other members of the consumer games team and John and James, the founders of the company, which retains a very flat structure.
You’ll be given autonomy and responsibility from day one. You must be a strategic thinker and a confident writer, brimming with ideas, demonstrating an ability to manage numerous tasks concurrently, and having excellent attention to detail. You will be responsible for crucial aspects of the daily work with clients, media, and influencers.
The position is home-based, as we are a 100% virtual agency. There will be quarterly in-person meetings in Central London and potentially other meetings where appropriate.
