Join an agency awarded for its culture and work with innovative brands shaping the future!

Sling & Stone is the public relations agency built for entrepreneurs, challengers and disruptors. We unearth, craft and share the stories of the most ambitious brands shaping the world - from Google Cloud to Canva, CSIRO, Hinge, Levi’s, Auckland Tourism and many others. 

Globally, we’re a team of 80+ Slingers across Australia, United States, Singapore and New Zealand.

We’re now searching for an Account Executive, who is curious about working with innovative business and consumer brands that are shaping the future and ready to fast-track their PR career! This is your opportunity to work with brands pushing boundaries and solving real-world problems for businesses and beyond. 

The role you’ll play
As an Account Executive, you are the executional driving force behind every one of your campaigns. You’re ready to roll up your sleeves to help move priority tasks - from storytelling, to pitching, to sharing media and social insights, to reporting and research. You’re a go-getter who’s curious and informed about what’s happening in the channels that matter most to your clients, and you're constantly sharing this intel with your teams to help secure relevant opportunities.

To be successful in this role you will need to:

• 1+ years PR and communications experience, preferably at an agency but not a must
• Knowledge of who’s who in Australian media and social creators
• A confident pitcher but never one who limits their thinking to just ‘traditional’ media relations
• A love of storytelling with writing skills to match
• Able to prioritise your workload, meet deadlines and ensure your client teams and campaigns never skip a beat
