Jobs at Berkeley Communications

We’re always on the lookout for fresh talent. Come and join our team.

While every PR agency claims to use storytelling, few change the way their teams and clients think about using storytelling. And only one has a CIPD accredited storytelling academy (clue, that’s us).

We aim to be the biggest independent agency in the UK and we’re punching against the biggest London based agencies in pitches.

We pride ourselves on creating a great culture and offer flexible working (only two days in the office per week – unless you want to do more); training, to ensure we’re looking after your development and progression; QRMs (quarterly review meetings) where we all meet up and have a great time, our birthdays off and one extra day per year worked up to a maximum of 5 additional days. Our atmosphere is second to none and we recognise our people are our greatest asset. We’ll invest in you if you invest in us.

If you’re interested in joining our energetic, collaborative PR agency but don’t see a role that matches your skills, please apply via the speculative applications option below.

For all applications please see attached Berkeley’s Job Applicant Privacy Notice for you to read ahead of application.

The Content Director will guide and manage the day-to-day responsibilities of the Content Marketing Team which sits at the heart of Berkeley’s ever-evolving development as an integrated agency. This role requires a thorough understanding of managing multiple content workflows from concept to execution, a passion for innovative content creation, and proven experience in supervising a small but highly versatile team. The ideal candidate will possess brilliant organisational skills, exceptional creative flair, and bring passion and team spirit to business meetings, pitches, and client brainstorms. Being responsible for planning, managing, and monitoring all content activities within the Content Marketing Team calendar, your role will involve determining a client’s initial creative direction, schedule, and scope, and then ensuring all content deliverables meet the highest standards of quality and creativity. Setting the example for storytelling and content excellence within the agency, the Content Director will work closely with the Head of Content to develop new business opportunities and implement content initiatives and services. You will also provide insight, intelligence, and strategic direction for the Content Marketing Team to fulfil both client and company objectives.

Berkeley Communications' communication and storytelling skills are their strongest selling points. They're fantastic at identifying a brand's story.
They’re very flexible and great at getting a hold of the brief. They can adjust if we have a U-turn in one area, so everything is possible with them. Moreover, they’ve hit many ambitious deadlines
Sally Fraser
"We are incredibly impressed with the work of the Berkeley team. We chose to work with them back in May 2018 at which point our ‘Share of Voice’ was less than 1%. By May 2019 we’d seen this grow to 23% and May 2020 we’ve achieved 31%, securing IDEX the number one SoV position. From a personal perspective I have found the Berkeley team great to work with, they are very professional, always prepared and bring new ideas to the table on an ongoing basis.”
