Senior Account Manager / Account Manager - Corporate Communications

We’re partnering with one of Auckland’s most respected communications consultancies to find a Corporate Communications Senior Account Manager,  although we'd also consider a strong Account Manager ready to step up.

This is an opportunity to join a genuinely collaborative, high-performing team that takes the work seriously while ensuring a culture of support and fun. The environment is mature, flexible, smart, and built around treating people like adults.

You’ll work across a varied portfolio that could include infrastructure and development projects, technology clients, corporate reputation work, stakeholder communications, issues management, executive profiling, and media engagement.

This is a hands-on communications consulting role where you’ll:

• Build strong relationships with a range of corporate clients
• Develop strategic communications approaches and messaging
• Write high-quality media materials, opinion pieces, and corporate content
• Pitch proactively to media and identify story opportunities
• Support issues and reputation management activity
• Juggle multiple client priorities while maintaining quality and calm under pressure
• Work closely with senior leaders while also driving workstreams independently

This isn’t a “just execute the comms plan” kind of role. They’re looking for someone who can think critically, write exceptionally well, and contribute to client thinking and strategy.

Ideally you’ll bring:

• 4–6 years’ communications experience
• Strong writing and media pitching capability
• Experience across corporate communications, strategic communications, PR, stakeholder engagement or reputation management
• The ability to manage multiple clients and priorities confidently
• High emotional intelligence and good judgement
• A collaborative mindset and openness to feedback
• Agency experience would be an advantage, but isn’t essential

Most importantly, they’re looking for someone curious, commercially aware, and genuinely interested in becoming a stronger communications consultant.

One of the biggest selling points here is the culture.

The team is exceptionally stable, with senior team members averaging long tenures. The environment combines the professionalism of a strong corporate advisory practice with the energy and creativity of a broader communications group.

If you’re looking for an agency where you can sharpen your corporate communications craft, work with smart people, and enjoy coming to work, we’d love to chat.
