**The team**
As a team with over 30 talented consultants, we strongly believe we are a sum of all our parts - we pride ourselves on being a broad spectrum of talents, experiences and expertise which all come together to tackle complex tasks and deliver results.
We like to think that we're a positive, if sometimes (healthy) cynical bunch as well. We're always there for each other during the good, and sometimes tricky times. And of course, we like to have fun - whether that's a few beers down at the pub, quiz nights, axe throwing, team breakfasts or competing in a Tough Mudder.
And with many of our colleagues coming from numerous other agencies, we are often told we provide the right balance of smart interesting work, with a great work/life balance (and quite a few laughs in between).
**The work**
Reputation. Every company has one. And in today's ever-changing and turbulent world reputation can no longer be left to chance. Gone are the days of managing reputation by accident rather than design. Like it or not companies - and their brands - are under public scrutiny like never before.
But reputation can also be a company's biggest business asset. An opportunity to stand out from the competition. More people buying and demanding a product. A stronger bottom-line and share price. Relying on word of mouth though simply isn't enough. You need to create the reputation and relationships you want. You need to build and maintain trust. With Employees. Media. Stakeholders. Shareholders. Consumers. And this is where we come in. In 'Team Corporate' we help clients to manage their reputation and brand. To anticipate risk and take advantage of emerging opportunities. We help to shape perceptions and transform reputations. And we do this by developing communication campaigns that drive progress and authentic engagement, deliver real results and bring about genuine change.
With in-depth sector experience covering consumer services, manufacturing and industrials, food and beverage, healthcare, property, financial services and energy.
The breadth of our work covers everything from storytelling and narrative development to media relations, media training, stakeholder engagement, executive profiling, speaker programs, campaign development and execution, internal comms and issues and crisis management.
**The role**
**This is a 3 month, full time (5 days p/week) internship, starting in August 2025. Although not guaranteed, there may be the potential to extend the internship or convert to a permanent role at the end of the contract.**
You'll have the opportunity to support multiple client accounts from day one, utilising the latest technology, AI tools and access to data to build robust communications campaigns. Supporting account teams to drive results through media relations, executive profiling, content development, social media and events. You will also play a role in supporting the team on new business and marketing efforts to continue to grow the practice and current portfolio of clients.
**The day-to-day:**
+ Developing media and influencer target lists, research around the news agenda and finding creative angles to promote stories
+ Media relations, pitching stories to journalists and drafting writing press releases and bylines
+ Assisting in the coordination of events such as press conferences, media briefings, analyst meetings, media tours and trade shows
+ Assisting with the drafting of client proposals and/or media materials: plans, presentations and reports
