Senior Account Manager - Public Affairs Firm

We’re partnering with a highly regarded strategic communications and corporate affairs consultancy with a reputation for delivering exceptional counsel to some of Aotearoa’s most influential organisations.

Proudly values-led and operating at the highest level, this firm works across complex reputation, communications and stakeholder challenges in both the public and private sectors.

Due to continued growth, we’re looking for a senior communications professional who combines sharp strategic thinking with strong client leadership capability. This is an opportunity for someone who thrives in complexity, enjoys being close to decision-making, and is confident advising senior stakeholders through high-profile and high-pressure situations.

You’ll bring a strong background in corporate communications, public affairs or strategic advisory, ideally from an agency or consultancy environment. You must have experience working in a client environment, servicing clients directly rather than working solely on the client side. You’ll be commercially minded, politically aware and highly credible with clients, while also enjoying mentoring more junior team members and contributing to broader business growth.

This is a genuinely impressive business with a high-performing, supportive and refreshingly grounded culture. The team is smart, ambitious and deeply collaborative, with a strong commitment to excellence, integrity and continuous improvement.

An exceptional opportunity for an experienced communications professional ready to step into a senior advisory role with meaningful impact and long-term growth potential.
