Client Executive position

Luther Pendragon is a strategic communications and public affairs consultancy trusted to guide organisations through uncertain times. What sets us apart is our ability to look beyond day-to-day turbulence and help clients anticipate what matters next, simplify complexity and make confident decisions in uncertain environments. Our ethos is built on excellence, judgement and long-term partnership.

We are hiring a new Client Executive. This role offers an initial six months’ experience helping deliver client work and supporting a wide variety of corporate, marketing and new business initiatives. Previous Client Executives have gone on to be offered permanent roles and progress to Associate Director level.

We are looking for a candidate who can demonstrate the following: 

Essential

  • Relevant work experience – this could be an internship, freelance work, or a similar role.
  • A genuine interest in and understanding of the UK media and political landscape.
  • Excellent research and writing skills, with the ability to summarise complex ideas clearly and with great attention to detail.
  • Strong time management skills and the ability to prioritise effectively across multiple tasks.
  • Confident using technology and digital platforms, including AI tools and social media channels.
  • Strong interpersonal skills, able to communicate clearly and professionally with colleagues and clients.


Valued

  • A 2.1 degree or higher, ideally in a relevant discipline (e.g. politics, economics, journalism, English, history, law or social sciences).
  • Familiarity with the parliamentary process or experience engaging with political content.
  • Experience drafting professional written content for publication or distribution.
  • Knowledge of monitoring tools or AI platforms used in communications work.


Personal qualities

  • High personal standards.
  • Self-motivated and proactive.
  • Intellectually curious.
  • Calm under pressure.
  • Resilient and adaptable.
  • Open to feedback.

The salary is £2150 per month based on working 35 hours per week. We offer a range of benefits, including a structured training and development programme and one-to-one mentoring. The majority of the Client Executive’s time will be spent in our central London office, but there is scope for a limited amount of hybrid working.

We value diversity of experience so we welcome interest from people from different backgrounds.

To apply, candidates should email a short covering letter AND/OR a one-minute video explaining why you are interested and how you meet the criteria to recruitment@luther.co.uk using the subject line ‘Client Executive application’.
