Head of Personal Publicity, Communications Agency, London

An incredible brand new role for a Head of Personal Publicity, working within an innovative communications agency in London, famous for servicing disruptive brands and founders across the consumer and corpsumer space.

As the agency continues to grow, they are now expanding their offering into personal publicity, building and managing the reputation of individuals.

You will possess the ability to craft, with talent and media, landmark opportunities across multiple earned media channels – from print and online to speaker opportunities, TV and broadcast. You will also have the ability to develop and form long term strategies for individuals knowing when to decline opportunities and how to mitigate issues or requests for information along the way.

You will possess an understanding of the role of personal social in reputation building – although you won’t be expected to manage an individual’s social channels on a regular basis, you will be expected to form an ongoing view of how the two should work together with each talent.
