About BLUE
BLUE is a specialist global B2B communications consultancy for organisations operating in complex, high-value industries - such as maritime, marine leisure, energy and carbon markets. Since 2008, we've turned market expertise into influence and impact, helping clients lead conversations, shape markets and unlock growth.
Our credibility comes from deep immersion, not observation. We get close enough to our clients' businesses to understand what motivates them — and what keeps them awake at night — so we can operate as true consultants, not just a delivery team. It's why our clients stay, and why we've built long-term partnerships across some of the most complex, high-value industries there are.
The role
We're looking for an Account Executive to be an integral, client-facing part of our account teams — the person who knows the status of every action and keeps the whole programme moving. You'll drive activity across your accounts, own the calendar, WIP and reporting, and build a genuine understanding of your clients, their sectors and the wider market.
It's a role for someone at the start of their PR career who wants to learn fast, get properly stuck in, and grow into a trusted communications professional — all while living BLUE's values as a true brand ambassador.
Tasks
Account management & reporting
Know the status of every action — own the calendar of activity, WIP and client reporting, including BLUE's Impact Report template
Track, collate, analyse and evaluate coverage, and keep account documents correctly named, filed and formatted to BLUE's brand templates
Develop and sustain client relationships day-to-day, and support the senior team with tactical delivery of PR strategy
Media monitoring & relations
Monitor client and BLUE sector media, spotting opportunities for clients to comment or feed into messaging and articles of interest
Issue press releases and pitches to targeted contacts, following up with key media by phone and email
Own and maintain BLUE's core media lists, and build journalist relationships through regular contact
Writing & content
Draft press releases and shorter-form content such as blogs and editorial, backed by research and interviews
Draft first-draft speaker abstracts and media briefs
Maintain client social media channels on social media channels and proofread materials with a close eye for detail
Social media & culture
Monitor client and competitor social channels, and support larger social content projects alongside BLUE's digital team
Live by and promote BLUE's brand values, contribute content for BLUE's own LinkedIn, website and socials, and support with general administration as needed
Attend external networking events for your own development and to promote the BLUE brand, spotting commercial opportunities as you go
Requirements
Essential
Some PR or communications experience, either agency, in-house or via a placement/internship, or a relevant degree with demonstrable interest in the industry
Excellent written and spoken English, with a close eye for detail and accuracy
Strong organisational skills, able to manage multiple tasks, deadlines and priorities at once
A proactive, can-do attitude and genuine curiosity about clients, their sectors and the wider market
A confident communicator, comfortable speaking with clients and journalists
Desirable
Experience in, or genuine curiosity about, the marine, renewable energy or wider sustainability sectors
Familiarity with media monitoring/coverage tools and social media management
Experience drafting press releases, pitches or social copy
Benefits
Hybrid working, with a 4pm Friday finish encouraged!
Dog friendly offices
A charity donation made in your name on your birthday and the day off
Employee of the Quarter recognition and length of service bonus
Additional annual leave after 2 years
New Business commission scheme
Employee assistance scheme
Two centrally located UK offices, fully stocked with food and drink
Regular team socials, from dragon boat racing to scavenger hunts
Perk Box access and discounts
Salary sacrifice pension scheme
‘Work from anywhere’ policy (2 weeks, after 1 year of service)
A genuine stake in a growing, purpose-led consultancy
Opportunity for international travel and events
Weekly T@3 for knowledge sharing
Cycle to work scheme
