- Developing strategic PR programmes aligned with business goals.
- Generating story ideas and securing standout coverage across print, digital and broadcast.
- Writing high‑impact content including press releases, op‑eds, thought leadership and digital copy.
- Proactive reputation building and spotting opportunities before anyone else does.
- Issues management support when clients need calm, confident guidance.
- Campaign reporting with clear insights and recommendations.
- Mentoring junior colleagues and helping shape the next generation of PR talent.
- Maintaining strong journalist relationships — your natural territory.

You’ll be an experienced PR professional or a journalist ready to transition into PR with:
- Strong writing and editorial judgement.

Moxie and Mettle is a UK-based recruitment company; our clients are based in the UK too. Although many clients offer remote working as an option, there is still a need to regularly visit company offices and clients in the UK. Therefore, applications from overseas are unlikely to be successful, unless applicants already have plans to be in the UK several times a month/year to facilitate meetings with both the teams and clients.
