FREELANCE PUBLICIST — LUXURY TRAVEL BRAND ACCOUNT (AM TO AD LEVEL)
The Opportunity
A well-regarded PR agency is looking for a freelance publicist to join them on one of their most interesting accounts — a high-profile luxury travel brand with a genuinely compelling story to tell.
This is a consulting-level role, not a press release factory. They need someone who can think strategically, brief clients with confidence, and push back when the brief doesn't quite stack up.
The brand operates at a fascinating intersection — consumer-facing but with a strong corporate comms layer — meaning there's real scope for intelligent, varied work across earned media, issues management, and campaign planning.
Remote-first and genuinely flexible. The initial engagement is light (a few days to start), with a strong expectation of longer-term support from September.
What You'll Be Doing
• Leading day-to-day PR activity on a luxury travel brand account
• Developing and executing media strategies that blend consumer storytelling with corporate communications
• Building and maintaining relationships with key travel, lifestyle and business media
• Briefing clients clearly and managing expectations with confidence
• Identifying proactive story angles that go well beyond the obvious press release
• Supporting crisis and issues management when needed
• Contributing to campaign planning and longer-term strategic thinking
What They're Looking For
• A publicist operating at Account Manager to Account Director level
• Solid PR agency background — ideally with travel, lifestyle or luxury brand experience
• A confident client handler who can push back constructively and brief with authority
• Strong media contacts across consumer and corporate titles
• Someone who thinks in stories, not just announcements
• Comfortable working remotely and independently
• Available for freelance now, with September expansion in mind
What's on Offer
• Flexible, remote-first freelance engagement
• Rate DOE
• Initial brief of approx. 2–3 days, with strong potential for a longer-term arrangement from September
• The chance to work on a high-profile luxury travel brand with real creative scope
