PR (Media / Marketing) Internship in London

As a startup agency with a ‘hands-off’ management style, the key to success in this role is proactivity. You’re a self-starter able to spot problems and suggest practical ways to solve them. You won’t be expected to have the right answers, but you’ll have the resource of a supportive network to find out - take as much from us as you can, and use it to progress your own career progression; whether that’s with an eye on a career in PR and media relations; creative, content and digital marketing or digital marketer; or a different role entirely in media technology and marketing services. You will be managed by Ben Robinson, Head of Media & Marketing. Having started as an intern himself, he is very knowledgeable, friendly and approachable, and can develop you from intern to a key employee.
