Summary
Journalist JD £25,000 + 1400 PCM bonus = £41800 (OTE)
Billion Media is a growing digital marketing company based in Liverpool. We specialise in Search
Engine Optimisation (SEO) and have an interest in the legal sector, though we offer our services
to a wide range of industries.
We're seeking a talented individual with experience in PR and journalism to join our expanding
and creative team.
The Job
The role involves conducting in-depth research and investigations on various topics relating to
our client websites. Much of this research involves Freedom of Information requests, interviews
and surveys.
On a day to day basis, you will work with others in the team to identify potential campaign ideas.
You will then conduct research, compile and analyse the results, and present them to the media
in the form of press releases, pitches and phone calls.
With us being an SEO agency, one of our main aims of promoting these stories is to acquire links
to our websites and articles. Part of the role will involve liaising with journalists and editors to get
these links included.
Our ideal candidate would have a minimum of 1 year of experience in a similar role.
A degree in journalism or an NTCJ qualification is preferred, but otherwise, a good grasp of
journalistic writing and media law will be considered.
Experience making Freedom Of Information Requests and analysing data.
Attention to detail is a big part of this role. You will be expected to research and analyse raw data
and write sometimes complex and technical content that requires a sharp editorial eye.
Conducting research also forms a huge part of this role. Experience in research and scrutinising
data sources is therefore essential. We would like you to demonstrate initiative and to devise and
propose your own campaign strategies.
Organisation is also vital. You will be responsible for your workload and will, once training is
completed, be assigned a monthly target, which is tied into a bonus scheme.
We pride ourselves on our friendly, sociable and laid back atmosphere, so strong interpersonal
and communication skills are essential. We're a close-knit team that supports each other in every
aspect of our jobs. We seek people who are willing to go above and beyond for their colleagues.
The Benefits
The starting salary is £25,000 depending on experience. You'll be entitled to 28 days holiday per
year, including bank holidays. This increases each year you are employed.
There is a bonus scheme attached to the role, offering up to an extra £1,400 per month
