Associate Director - Corporate Affairs

PF Global gives advice built on deep sector expertise, underpinned by global opinion and economic research, so our clients can win the arguments that will decide their future.

We are oriented around the debates that will matter most to the future, where the intersection of policy, politics, and regulation will decide what happens. We will tell clients honestly what is politically possible (and what is not) and then help them make their case by building the research, the story and the campaign that goes with it.

Working at PF Global, you’ll work alongside colleagues with diverse skills, gain exposure to senior clients, and have real opportunities to develop your career as part of our ambitious and supportive team.

The Role

We are looking for an Associate Director (AD) to run two critical accounts for PF Global day to day. You will deal with very high-profile, senior people and make sure complex workstreams are managed seamlessly, with no balls dropped. You will understand ambitious campaign strategies and how to translate them into execution, pull in our experts from across the firm and beyond to deliver what the client needs, and adapt quickly as circumstances change.

You will also support junior colleagues, help the leadership team to mentor and develop talent, and help our clients to influence and shape the political agenda for their business.

What you'll do

• Running two major accounts day to day, owning senior client relationships and working closely with directors and staff across PF Global.

• Managing complex, multi-strand workstreams to tight deadlines so nothing is dropped

• Turning campaign strategy into delivery, from building stakeholder coalitions to running digital activity

• Pulling in experts from across PF Global and beyond to deliver what clients need

• Producing clear, thoughtful, and accurate written work for senior clients

• Seeking opportunities for organic growth on accounts and leveraging own network of clients, prospects, media, and wider stakeholders to provide insight for clients and new business

• Identify and contribute to pitches and proposals for new business

What we're looking for

• Extensive experience in public affairs or political strategy, with an excellent track record in operating and delivering multifaceted campaigns. A demonstrable interest in UK growth is a plus.

• Proven project management skills and experience of effectively managing multiple projects and priorities

• Extensive experience of client engagement and senior stakeholder management in a consultancy environment
