FINN Partners is on the hunt for an Account Executive to join our growing UK travel PR practice. Ideally, you will have a minimum of one year of experience in PR or within journalism. You will need experience of media relations and pitching, writing, and social media comms as well as a passion for the travel industry. You will have the desire or impulse to travel, wander and explore this beautiful world and be ready to bring your passion to an award-winning integrated agency.
What you’ll be up to?
As Account Executive you will support the wider team and work with some of the best destinations and brands in the business. You will keep on top of the media, there’s a lot of reading for everyone here at FINN, papers, magazines, broadcast and digital/online, so an understanding of the changing media landscape is needed, to ensure we continue to develop opportunities for our clients and create inspiring content. You will be monitoring and creating media lists, putting together activity reports, writing releases & engaging pitches, responding to media requests, clipping coverage, managing agendas and client call logistics, organising, and hosting events, selling in stories, and attending client meetings.

What We Do
1400+ People. 3 Continents. 33 Offices. We are a global integrated marketing agency transforming and inspiring the world of communications every day. A LETTER FROM PETER FINN: DECEMBER 2011. FINN PARTNERS WAS BORN. After 11 years serving as co-CEO of an historic agency that carried my father’s name— and mine!—and after 30+ years of working at the firm, I wanted to build something different, bold, meaningful and amazing for clients, our colleagues and the community. "Amazing" was, and is, for me an important word. I imagined we could be "amazing" every day, knowing this is a goal not always achieved but always pursued. A place where talented people could gather and do big things for clients as well as make a difference to the communities important to us. WE LAUNCHED WITH A GROUP WHO SHARED A VISION. This was to be a "new" agency model, driven by a collaborative spirit. We asked, "Can we bind our 60-year legacy to the energy and speed of today’s hi-tech world?" We had $24 million in fees at our founding. Today, we have more than $85 million in fees, over 700 colleagues and 18 offices across three continents. Our Founding Managing Partners, highly respected colleagues who took the leap with me from our former agency, have been joined by the principals of other great agencies that became Finn Partner companies. So many other talented individuals are with us, too, intrigued by the idea of doing amazing things in an amazing workplace community. WE’VE MADE OUR MARK QUICKLY. Finn Partners has been named “Best New Agency,” “Best PR Agency to Work for in North America” and“Best Mid-Sized Agency of the Year” three times. Now, we’re one of the world’s largest agencies. WE ARE A YOUNG AGENCY. We share the genes of a respected agency that pioneered today’s integrated communications. But we are not them. We are unique. We are ourselves. We are focused on the future, building that future during each amazing day.
