Public Relations

2 days ago

Port Elizabeth, Eastern Cape, South Africa The Sales Centre co Full time R250 000 - R500 000 per year

Salary: R15,000 Medical Aid Allowance + 10 Days Paid Leave

We're looking for a Public Relations Executive with strong agency or client-side experience — someone who can confidently own PR campaigns and support broader marketing initiatives across multiple client accounts.

This role blends public relations, digital PR, and marketing, so it's perfect for someone who can craft compelling stories, secure meaningful media coverage, and contribute to multi-channel marketing campaigns that keep our clients front-of-mind.

If you've successfully pitched to journalists, managed client PR calendars, supported social and email campaigns, and delivered measurable results across both PR and marketing channels, you'll excel in this role.

This is not a newsroom or editorial journalism position.
We're specifically looking for candidates who understand the fast-paced, client-facing rhythm of agency work — balancing creativity with strategy, handling multiple accounts, and driving proactive outreach.

You'll be building narratives, strengthening media relationships, supporting content and marketing projects, and helping clients grow their visibility through strategic, integrated PR and marketing efforts.

● Identify opportunities for client coverage and thought leadership

● Attend industry events and networking opportunities

Essential Experience

● Proven PR agency or in-house PR experience

● Confident pitching to journalists and securing coverage

● Experience with digital PR and outreach strategies

● Strong press release and copywriting skills

● Comfortable managing CRMs and media databases

● Excellent communication and time management skills

Who You Are

You're confident, proactive, and self-driven. You thrive in a dynamic environment, balancing

creativity with accountability. You understand that great PR is about relationships, timing,

and storytelling that connects. You're adaptable, organised, and passionate about helping

brands earn recognition for what they do best.

What You'll Gain

● The opportunity to shape and lead PR initiatives from the ground up

● A supportive, collaborative environment that values initiative and efficiency

● Exposure to a variety of clients and industries — no two weeks look the same
