Key responsibilities:

• You will drive the media agenda for healthcare clients, using your established journalist relationships to pitch stories and secure consistent, high-quality coverage in a scrutinised health landscape.

• You will work within the creative and regulatory frameworks of the healthcare sector, ensuring all campaign materials are fully compliant while remaining innovative and effective.
  
• You will oversee the delivery of multi-channel campaigns, coordinating media relations, stakeholder engagement, and social/digital components to ensure deadlines are met and results are measured.
  
• You will play a vital role in supervising junior team members, providing quality control on written work and guiding their professional development.

About you 

• You are a PR professional with 3 – 6 years of experience, within healthcare communications or a similarly regulated industry.
  
• You have a proven track record of landing stories in trade, national, or consumer health titles. You know how to build and maintain a media list that actually delivers.
  
• You are comfortable diving into complex medical or technical subject matter and can draft press releases or articles that make that information accessible and engaging.
