Job Description

Digital PR Manager (Earned / SEO)

\n

Remote (UK-based)

\n

£45,000 - £55,000 + benefits

\n

An established marketing provider is launching in the UK, and after bringing in a new VP of Marketing they are building the team from the top down. First hire in is a Digital PR Manager to spearhead the digital PR function from scratch: you set up the service, the standards and the systems, then grow a team around you as the UK side scales.

\n

Their work is sold into global marketing agencies, so client-facing polish matters. Two services sit at the heart of it: data-led digital PR, the kind of newsworthy pieces created on behalf of clients that earn coverage and links, and press release distribution. This suits a commercially savvy, sleeves-rolled-up operator who wants to own a service, not just run campaigns.

\n

You will:

\n
    \n
  • Build the digital PR function end to end, from campaign ideation and media strategy through to delivery and client reporting
  • \n
  • Run data-led campaigns and press release distribution that land high-authority coverage and links in major UK and US titles
  • \n
  • Build tiered media lists and real relationships with journalists across tech, SaaS, marketing and search
  • \n
  • Set the quality bar and the processes, then brief and grow a team to hit them
  • \n
\n

You will ideally have:

\n
    \n
  • Three to five years in digital PR, agency-side in link building or SEO
  • \n
  • A track record of top-tier UK and US placements, working to link KPIs
  • \n
  • Agency experience and the client-facing skills that come with it
  • \n
  • The drive to build a service from the ground up, whether you are a Manager already or ready to step up
  • \n
\n

Get in early on a UK launch and shape the department you will go on to lead.
