We are looking for an experience Public Affairs Director (or Associate Director) to join an exciting independent global business that specialises in international affairs, and an organisation that is increasingly talked about as the one to watch in the industry. For this role, we are looking specifically for experience in Brussels and with the European Parliament, although the role will be 50/50 Brussels/Global in terms of focus and is likely to be based out of London, although location is negotiable.
If you have worked at several established communications agencies and are searching for something fresh and exciting for your next role, this could be the ole. This role will provide you with plenty of autonomy, intellectually stimulating work and the chance to join an exciting new agency that’s on a huge growth trajectory.
The agency
A strategic advisory firm, working directly with CEOs, political leaders, companies and prominent individuals throughout the world. The firm is centered around three pillars: crisis and litigation communications, reputation management and business/political strategies and 100% of the agency’s work is global.
What’s key about this firm is that they advise at the highest level, whether that’s a Prime Minister, CEO or high level, prominent individuals. This strategic positioning means they can command very generous fees which has seen the business grow enormously in its first few years, with ambitious plans to double this year’s revenue from last year.
Size-wise, the team is approximately 15 and growing fast, so this is a fantastic opportunity to join at an early stage and be part of the growth story. Culturally it’s a very flat structure, with no egos or hierarchical atmosphere. Staff are employed heavily on cultural fit – personality is valued as it’s a great team environment where everyone gets on and is collegiate.
The Role – Director / Associate Director
At this level, you would be given the chance to really create your own role and position in the company. The Founder is open to sector, whether you are a generalist or specialise in a particular area such as retail, energy etc. If you are looking for more autonomy and the chance to make your mark, contributing to the growth of an exciting agency, then there is potential to lead and grow your own division within the current framework.
We’re looking for someone who has a strong track record in manouvering within the public affairs / government space in Brussels. Added bonus would be management with some heavy weight crisis and issues experience and who is used to advising at the highest levels to CEO’s/Prime Ministers/Leaders. As the agency is heavily globally focused, international experience and languages will also be looked upon favourably.
