    Are you a natural storyteller who loves bringing brands to life? Do you enjoy shaping perceptions, creating standout campaigns and building meaningful connections with audiences?

    We're looking for an experienced Senior Brand PR & Communications Manager to join a much-loved, legacy heritage brand as it embarks on an exciting new chapter. This is a rare opportunity to play a central role in modernising the voice of a respected British institution, helping it stay relevant for today while remaining true to its proud history.

    About the Opportunity

    This isn't a routine PR role. Our client is going through a significant brand transformation and needs someone with creativity, confidence and strategic flair to help lead the way.

    You'll be responsible for developing and delivering a fresh, bold PR and communications strategy that builds advocacy, strengthens reputation and connects with both loyal supporters and new audiences. It's a role for someone who can think big, act fast and bring people with them.

    What You'll Be Doing

    • Leading the PR and communications strategy to support the launch of a major rebrand
    • Creating compelling campaigns that tell a consistent, engaging brand story
    • Driving proactive media relations and generating high-profile coverage across national and specialist outlets
    • Developing thought leadership programmes that position senior leaders as trusted voices
    • Managing PR activity around flagship events, including media planning and on-site press operations
    • Working closely with digital and marketing teams to deliver truly integrated, multi-channel campaigns
    • Building relationships with influencers, partners and agencies to amplify reach
    • Protecting brand reputation through proactive and, when needed, reactive communications
    • Measuring and reporting on results to show real impact and value

    What We're Looking For

    This role would suit a seasoned communications professional who understands how to balance heritage with modern relevance.

    You'll ideally have:

    • Experience in PR, media relations and strategic communications
    • Experience working with well-established or heritage brands, particularly through periods of change
    • A strong track record of delivering creative, integrated PR campaigns
    • Excellent writing skills and a genuine passion for storytelling
    • Confidence developing thought leadership content and securing speaking opportunities
    • Great media contacts and the ability to generate standout coverage
    • Experience collaborating with digital teams and managing external agencies
    • A practical, results-focused approach with strong reporting and analytical skills

    A degree in Communications, Journalism, Marketing or PR is preferred.

    Why This Role?

    This is a fantastic chance to work with a brand that holds a special place in British culture. You'll have the opportunity to help shape its future direction, influence how it's perceived, and deliver work that really matters.
