The posting

About Hanbury Strategy

We turn insight into impact. Whether you face a communications challenge or have a policy goal, our exceptional team uses our understanding of public opinion, the press and politics to create campaigns that work. We have a relentless focus on achieving great results for our clients

Our Mission

“To build a team of exceptional people, who go the extra mile, to help companies with their biggest reputational, policy and regulatory challenges.”

The Role

We are seeking an ambitious junior communications professional with a keen interest in media, politics and campaigns. Candidates should have gained relevant experience through internships, agency work, political campaigns, in-house communications roles or other comparable opportunities.

Main Duties and Responsibilities

You will work directly with colleagues at all levels of the company, giving you the opportunity to develop your skills with experienced professionals from across the worlds of politics, business and media. You will be involved in a range of tasks and projects, which might include:

• Drafting background briefings and conducting desk research on a range of policy areas and important issues.

• Monitoring for key developments in the press and Parliament that are relevant to clients.

• Drafting a range of media materials, including press releases and op-eds.

• Researching, analysing and collating political outputs from Westminster, Whitehall and regulators, and ensuring these are presented in a client-friendly format.

• Assisting with business development.

You will:

• Have introductory experience working in public affairs (agency or in house), policy, politics, communications or the media.

• Have a genuine interest in public relations, communications and politics.

• Be able to operate as a generalist - eager to learn a lot, at pace, about new industries and policy areas.

• Dedicated to producing high quality work and going the extra mile.

• Be a proactive ‘self-starter’: someone who takes the initiative to volunteer for tasks, and offers ideas at meetings.

• Have excellent written and verbal communication skills.

• Be able to SPAG (spelling and grammar check) documents quickly and accurately.

• Be organised and have good time management: you can juggle different activities, understand what needs to be prioritised, and communicate when different issues conflict.

• Show attention to detail: you consistently ensure that you review your pieces of work and submit to a good standard even when things are busy.

• Have the ability to work well within teams.

• Have a strong work ethic and drive to deliver excellence.

• Be motivated. We go the extra mile. We measure results, not hours.

• Have the right to work in the UK.

Benefits offered

• 28 days’ paid leave plus bank holidays and additional time off over Christmas.

• Pension plan - 4% company contribution.

• Annual discretionary bonus scheme.

• Normal working hours are 9am - 6pm: there are regular, earlier starts for morning monitoring.

• Offices in London Bridge - we are a hybrid working company.

• Cycle to work scheme and season ticket loan.

• Work from abroad policy for up to 20 days a year.

• The opportunity to opt in to private health care and subsidised gym membership.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
