PR Account Manager - PR & Communications Agency - Cheltenham (Hybrid)

Please note we are seeking someone with a PR agency background for this role

  • Are you an established PR Account Manager with a strong track-record working agency-side in PR and Communications agencies?
  • Are you confident in writing press releases, engaging with journalists, proofreading and managing client relationships?
  • Are you well-versed in B2B and B2C PR campaigns?

If you answered "Yes" we are keen for you to apply today.

A fantastic opportunity to manage a team of experienced and dedicated professionals within an award-winning, well-established and growing Cheltenham-based PR agency.

We’re looking for a creative, analytical Public Relations (PR) Account Manager to lead a team in developing and executing intelligent PR and media strategies that fulfil the objectives of our varied range of clients.

You will need excellent verbal and written communications skills, meticulous planning skills and an up-to-date knowledge of industry trends.

We are looking for someone to inspire and build effective relationships with our team of motivated professionals, both internally and across our excellent external base of stakeholders.

Ideally, you will already be in a B2B or B2C PR management role, ideally for an agency and looking for a new challenge. However, we will also consider applications from those in a senior PR position with proven management experience, looking for a rewarding step forward in their career.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
