Media Officer

Media Officers direct the way an organisation (or an individual) interacts with the press and public media organisations. They represent politicians, celebrities, charities, NGOs, CEOs and business leaders — developing communications plans, creating media opportunities, and setting-up press conferences to raise their profile.

As a media officer you could be writing a speech for a political candidate, organising an interview and photoshoot with a magazine for a celebrity, coaching a CEO before a press appearance, meeting with the marketing team to develop a communications and media plan for a charity, or reviewing a press release before sending to a list of media outlets for a manufacturing firm.

This is a very busy job role for high-energy, dynamic people who can juggle multiple calendars (as well as their own) without making a fuss.
