Job Details

About Jefferson Communications:
Jefferson Communications is a strategic communications consultancy providing public relations, public affairs campaigning, corporate and crisis communications, for a range of clients across healthcare, property, technology and finance.

We are office-based five days a week in Moorgate in the City of London with ad-hoc flexible working.


The Opportunity:
As a Senior Account Executive, you’ll work closely with the company Director and Account Managers, running day-to-day press office activity and supporting public affairs campaigning.

This position is ideal for an early-career communications professional who thrives on responsibility and independence and is eager to make a significant impact within a small, ambitious team.

The role provides deep client exposure from day one, with the chance to contribute to accounts across diverse sectors and build high-impact client relationships.

With a structure focused on results rather than hierarchy, this role rewards initiative and offers a direct path to influence the business strategy and grow.

You will be given high-impact responsibilities with opportunities to build client relationships and contribute to overall business growth.

 

Key Responsibilities:
As a Senior Account Executive, you will support and help manage client accounts, ensuring excellent delivery and clear communication.

Your role will involve supporting projects across public relations, including press office, media relations, campaigning, events and social media, and public policy, including regulatory campaigning, stakeholder mapping, and parliamentary events, all while coordinating with the rest of the team to ensure success.

 

What We’re Looking For:
The ideal candidate will have 1–3 years of relevant experience in PR, communications or journalism, ideally with exposure to policy or public affairs.

You must have exceptional organisational and multitasking abilities, and an acute attention to detail. Strong writing and communication skills are essential, as well as an adaptable approach to problem-solving.

We’re looking for someone confident in media pitching and journalist liaison, with strong drafting skills across press releases, op-eds and reactive comment, and solid research skills.

You must be reliable, confident, and proactive, with a mindset ready to take initiative.
