Job description

At MMGY Global, we believe nothing shapes your view of the world like travel. So every day, we share our client’s stories from a perspective that inspires people to see the world differently. Our personalised service and strategy connect media, consumers, and influencers across the globe, taking people to new places and changing their view for the better. At MMGY we inspire people to go places.

Are you a confident PR professional who thrives on building relationships, shaping stories, and leading campaigns that truly make an impact? We’re looking for an experienced PR Manager to take the lead on exciting accounts and play a key role in driving creative, results‑led PR strategies.

The role

As PR Manager, you’ll be the trusted day‑to‑day contact for your clients, managing relationships with confidence and ensuring requests are handled efficiently, whether by you or through your team.

You’ll lead press office activity from start to finish, overseeing the creation of high‑quality press releases, delegating and outsourcing where appropriate, and ensuring everything meets the highest editorial standards before it goes out.

You’ll be proactive and persuasive, pitching creative story ideas to journalists across phone, email, and face‑to‑face meetings. Attending events and media opportunities will be a regular part of your role, giving you the chance to network, strengthen existing relationships, and build new ones.

You’ll also play a key role in planning and delivering press trips, from organisation through to execution, working closely with media partners and stakeholders to ensure seamless delivery. Supporting the wider team, you’ll contribute to the development of PR plans, creative campaign ideas, targeted media lists, and realistic timelines that drive meaningful coverage for your clients.

About you

You’ll bring 3+ years’ experience in PR, with a strong understanding of the travel and lifestyle media landscape. Experience working with tourism clients and/or the cruise sector would be a real advantage.

You’ll already have a solid network of media contacts across national and consumer titles and be confident managing campaigns, teams, and budgets.

You’re an exceptional writer and communicator, with the interpersonal skills needed to build lasting relationships with clients, journalists, and colleagues alike.

A good understanding of social media and how it integrates with PR strategies is essential, as is a collaborative, proactive mindset. Above all, you’re a team player with a genuine “can‑do” attitude and a passion for delivering standout PR.

Our industry‑leading benefits:

• A flexible hybrid work schedule
• Generous annual holiday package including 25 days of annual leave, 3 personal days and year‑end holiday break.
• Private medical, life and income protection insurance and pension scheme contribution from the company.
• Lively social calendar with numerous activities and events to take part in.
• Weekly fresh fruit deliveries.
• Dog friendly office.
• Cycle to work scheme/Season Ticket Loan.
• Work from anywhere / work from any office benefits.

Who Are We? We’re a travel‑obsessed collective of more than 600 people across the country and around the globe. And when we say we inspire people to go places, we mean ALL people. That’s why we’re focused on nurturing a workforce that is representative of the places we visit.
