PR Executive (Consumer)

Clifton, Bristol

Competitive Salary + Benefits

At Speed , we live and breathe consumer PR. From food and drink to health, beauty, travel and lifestyle, our consumer team works with some of the most exciting brands out there – building campaigns that cut through the noise and land with impact. As the largest PR agency in the South West and one of the Top 15 fastest growing agencies in the UK, Speed offers an exceptional environment to develop your career and make your mark.

We’re looking for a PR Executive to join our brilliant consumer team. This is a hands-on, fast-moving role where you’ll be part of the engine room of campaign delivery. You’ll pitch stories to national and lifestyle media, spark conversations with influencers, help run eye-catching campaigns and spot opportunities to get our clients seen, heard and loved.

Journalism background? Even better. If you know what makes a great story and how to tailor it to different audiences, you'll feel right at home here. You’ll get to flip the script – using your media instincts to shape stand-out PR campaigns and newsjacks.

What you’ll be doing

Be the voice that media want to hear from

Pitch into top-tier national and consumer press - national newspapers, mags and regional media
Build lasting media and influencer relationships
Sniff out opportunities and trends that put our brands at the centre of the conversation
Keep those media lists fresh, relevant and ready to roll

Deliver campaigns with energy

Be a key part of campaign execution – from helping run the press office to coordinating sampling programmes, stunts, events and content shoots

Research media targets, source props, book influencers and make the behind-the-scenes magic happen

Work with the team to keep everything running smoothly and on time

Create standout copy – think press releases, media alerts, emails, articles and social content

Help shape visual content that brings campaigns to life – from scroll-stopping reels to Insta-worthy imagery

Contribute to Speed’s blog and thought leadership – we want your voice in the mix

Think consumer-first

Feed in creative, on-brand ideas that’ll turn heads and drive engagement

Stay plugged into culture, social trends, and what gets consumers clicking and sharing

Support with influencer outreach and community management

Support clients & the team

Be a team player who lifts others up and brings positive energy to the room

We’re looking for someone with experience or a strong interest in consumer PR or journalism – someone who’s a confident communicator, a natural storyteller, and has a genuine love for the media, from tabloids to TikTok. You’ll be a sharp writer with an eye for engaging copy, a creative thinker bursting with ideas, and someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment. Being organised, proactive and calm under pressure is key, as is a real passion for lifestyle brands, consumer behaviour and trends. Most importantly, you’ll bring a positive, can-do attitude and be a true team player who’s ready to get stuck in.
