About Organic

At Organic, film and television is what we love. We hire people who are passionate and have energy and enthusiasm for the industry we work in. We’re a communications agency specialising in PR for the entertainment industry. We surround our clients’ content with small teams of experts who collaborate to be productive, responsive and accommodating. We build exciting campaigns around content of all kinds targeting audiences that will love them. We’ve been around for nearly 20 years so we have strong roots in our industry, but we approach all our work with a fresh, innovative and forward-thinking approach that enables creativity to thrive. We believe that in order to be successful partners for our clients, we need to be experts in what we do; be creative in the way that we think; and be nice to work with on every campaign.

About The Role

We're looking for a Senior Entertainment Specialist with blue-sky ideas - and the magic to actually pull them off. Someone who can talk big-picture strategy and get into the nitty-gritty. You know that comms isn’t just noise, it’s about starting cultural conversations. And most importantly, you live and breathe entertainment.

You will have experience in PR, working in film, television or streaming publicity. You will have a flair for everything from Canva decks to creator campaigns, and a sixth sense for what’s trending in TV, film and music. If you know your way around a red carpet, can spot a rising star on TikTok, and still love solid media relations, you might just be our person.

In this role, you'll have account lead responsibilities on one of the biggest streaming services. Your days will be packed with entertainment strategy, talent wrangling, influencer vibes, media pitching, red carpets, content galore, and a few late-night premieres.

You’ll also get the chance to work across the Havas Village - powered by a Deliberately Different philosophy, a way of working that brings together strategy, creativity, media, and content. For you, that means you’ll join the Organic team with its own distinct culture and expertise, while being part of a broader Village where you can collaborate with talented teams in creative and production to bring bigger, smarter ideas to life. 

Some of the responsibilities of this role include but are not limited to:

• Maintaining and developing exceptional relationships with media across all sectors of film, entertainment, TV, streaming

• Building strong relationships with clients and stakeholders across film, television and streaming.

• Act as the senior client lead, building trusted, long-term partnerships.
