PR Executive (Consumer)

Speed – Bristol (BS8) – Hybrid

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.

• 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

• 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

• Write like a pro

• 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

• 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

• Join regular brainstorms and proactively pitch in new ideas

• Help develop social calendars and campaign content

• Work alongside our social experts to deliver content across Instagram, Tik Tok, Pinterest and beyond

• Support with influencer outreach and community management

• Build relationships with client contacts and contribute to meetings

• Support reporting, admin and budget management

• 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 – someone who’s a confident communicator, a natural storyteller, and has a genuine love for the media, from tabloids to Tik Tok. 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.

• An extra 5 days’ holiday every 5 years you’re with us (because loyalty matters)

• Office closed over Christmas – and no, it doesn’t come out of your holiday

• 5% matched pension to help you plan ahead

• Healthcare cashback scheme to keep you feeling your best

• Generous family leave packages for life’s big moments

• Flexible, hybrid working – because we get that life isn’t 9 to 5
