More About the Role
At Burson, our Consumer team sits at the intersection of culture, conversation and creativity, delivering campaigns that people genuinely engage with and talk about. As a Senior Account Executive, you’ll play an active role in shaping integrated campaigns across earned media, influencer, social and digital channels for some of the world’s most recognised brands.
Working closely with Account Directors and Client Leads, you’ll help bring ideas to life through media engagement, creator partnerships, activations and content that drives real audience connection and cultural impact.
This is a fast paced, high visibility role where no two days look the same. You’ll build strong media and creator relationships, contribute ideas that elevate campaigns, mentor junior team members and gain exposure across the full agency landscape, from strategy and content through to reporting and new business.
We’re ideally looking for a Sydney based Consumer focused SAE with strong PR fundamentals and a passion for the evolving media and digital landscape. Experience or interest in areas such as influencer engagement, data and intelligence, social/content, paid social or earned creative will be highly regarded.
If you’re someone who thrives in a collaborative environment, loves spotting trends before they peak and wants to grow within a global communications agency working on iconic brands — we’d love to hear from you.
