Senior Account Executive, PR & Communications
Remote, Australia | Full-time
We don’t do typical PR agency fluff.
Hyde & Seek is a senior-led earned-media agency working with ambitious businesses across technology, AI, healthcare, sustainability, finance and social impact.
We’re growing and looking for a Senior Account Executive to work alongside our senior account leads across media relations, storytelling and client delivery.
This is a hands-on role for someone who is already confident in PR execution and wants more exposure to strategy, senior clients and meaningful earned-media work.
What you’ll do
- Work alongside senior account leads across a portfolio of B2B and consumer-facing accounts
- Develop media angles and contribute to campaign planning
- Draft pitches, releases, commentary, briefing notes and thought leadership
- Build targeted media lists and maintain journalist relationships
- Pitch proactively across tier-one, business, trade, tech and consumer media
- Coordinate interviews and spokesperson preparation
- Track coverage, maintain client reporting and keep activity moving
- Monitor the news cycle and identify reactive opportunities
- Own smaller workstreams and grow into greater account responsibility over time
What we’re looking for
- Minimum 3 years of recent PR agency experience in Australia, including hands-on media relations, journalist pitching and campaign execution
- Currently operating at Senior Account Executive level, or an experienced Account Executive demonstrably ready to step up
- Strong writing and media relations skills
- Good understanding of the Australian media landscape
- Comfortable juggling multiple accounts and deadlines
- Proactive, organised and self-directed in a remote environment
- Curious, commercially aware and willing to challenge weak story ideas
- Strong attention to detail
- Interested in growing into an Account Manager role
What you’ll get
- Direct mentorship from senior PR practitioners
- Exposure to strategy, not just execution
- Remote-first flexibility
- Variety across technology, healthcare, sustainability and other complex sectors
- Clear progression into Account Manager
- A small, low-ego team where good ideas get heard
- Workloads designed to stay sustainable rather than permanently frantic
Salary: $75,000 to $85,000 + super, depending on experience
