Career Profile - Public Relations Officer


Career Profile


Public relations officers manage the reputation and image of their clients, working to gain public understanding and support through planned publicity campaigns

A career in public relations (PR) involves using all forms of media and communication to build, maintain and manage the reputation of your clients. These range from public bodies or services, to businesses and voluntary organisations.

You’ll communicate key messages, often using third-party endorsements, to defined target audiences in order to establish and maintain goodwill and understanding between an organisation and its public. This may be between organisations (business-to-business, or B2B) or individuals, and the general public.

As a PR officer or PR account executive, you’ll monitor publicity and conduct research to find out the concerns and expectations of your client organisation’s stakeholders. You’ll then report and explain the findings to its management.

Responsibilities
As an Public Relations Officer, you’ll need to:

* work as part of an account team (in smaller organisations you may be the sole PR lead or work as an agency PR officer) where you’ll plan, develop and implement PR strategies
* build strong relationships and networks with colleagues, clients and the media and answer enquiries from the media and other organisations
* monitor the media, including newspapers, magazines, journals, broadcasts, newswires, social media sites and blogs, for opportunities for clients
* research, write and distribute press releases to targeted media
* collate and analyse media coverage
* write and edit in-house magazines, case studies, speeches, articles and annual reports
* prepare and supervise the production of publicity brochures, handouts, direct mail leaflets, promotional videos, photographs, films and multimedia programmes
* devise photo opportunities and coordinate studio or location photography
* organise events (such as press conferences, exhibitions, open days and press tours), source speakers and seek out sponsorship opportunities
* maintain and update information on the organisation’s website
* manage and update information and engage with users on social media sites such as Twitter and Facebook
* prepare regular client reports and attend client meetings
* commission market research
* undertake research for new business proposals and present them to potential new clients
* foster good community relations through events such as open days and through involvement in community initiatives
* manage the PR aspect of a potential crisis situation.

Salary

* Starting salaries for PR officers are around £18,000 to £24,000.
* Senior PR officers and account managers usually earn in the region of £25,000 to £40,000.
* Senior management positions, such as PR director or head of corporate affairs, attract salaries of up to £100,000.

Salaries in PR vary depending on the setting and the region. For example, pay is typically higher in the private sector. Apart from the public sector, there are generally no set salary scales, and initial starting salaries can be modest.

Salaries are usually higher in London and the South East.

Some organisations operate bonus schemes, while others may offer other incentives such as private health insurance or a company car. You may also be provided with a laptop and/or mobile phone.

Working Hours

Working hours are generally 9am to 5.30pm but are frequently longer due to the demands of the workload. As client deadlines are all-important, you’ll have to work until outstanding jobs have been completed. Press launches, crisis management and pitches can all result in long hours. Some agencies have a much more ingrained long-hours culture than others.

Working in a self-employed or freelance capacity is possible, although this is more common for experienced PR professionals. Career breaks and part-time work are possible as well.

What to expect

* The job is generally office-based, but you may have to travel frequently to attend networking and media events and exhibitions, as well as meetings with clients. International travel may also be necessary.
* The work can be stressful, for example when meeting tight deadlines, juggling various projects or working on a new business proposal, but it can also be very rewarding.
* PR professionals are often expected to network and socialise with clients, the media and colleagues to build and maintain relationships. The boundaries between your social and working life may become somewhat blurred.
* Competition for jobs is fierce, and although PR has a glamorous image, you should be aware of the pressures as well as the rewards of a career in this field.
* The PR industry has a wide geographical spread throughout the main commercial centres in the UK, with openings often occurring in all regions. However, there is a heavy concentration in and around London.

Skills

You’ll need to have:

* excellent interpersonal and communication skills, including effective writing skills
* self-confidence, drive, competence and a willingness to learn
* excellent organisational and time management skills with the ability to multitask
* flexibility, determination, enthusiasm and the ability to cope under pressure
* creativity, imagination and initiative
* good teamwork, negotiation and problem-solving skills
* business awareness and a good knowledge of current affairs
* the ability to think strategically, for planning successful PR campaigns
* the capacity to prioritise tasks and projects effectively.

Career prospects

PR departments and consultancies do not always adhere to traditional patterns of career progression but, if you demonstrate outstanding ability, promotion can be rapid.

As a new graduate, you can expect to work as a PR assistant or junior account executive for one or two years before gaining promotion to PR officer or account executive.

Further progression to management-level posts, such as senior account executive or account manager, is likely to take a further two to three years and depends heavily on your personal aptitude, performance and motivation. A willingness to move between employers or geographical areas may be necessary in order to broaden your experience or move into a more specialist role.

After a further two to three years at this level, you may have enough experience to seek promotion to account director, where you’ll have responsibility for higher-profile clients and all the staff working on the account teams. From here you could progress to PR director and eventually perhaps be asked to sit at board level, or you may choose to set up your own agency.

Consultancy can offer broad experience before specialising. It’s possible to move between in-house and consultancy roles.

Self-employment is an option later in your career if you’ve built up a good network of contacts and wish to operate as a freelance consultant or set up your own firm.

Course Qualification - What qualification will I receive?

This is a dual-certification course and you will therefore receive two qualifications. This course is certified by Open Learning College via the Open Pathway Accreditation Programme.

This course leads to a Level 3 for successful learners. This means that it is independently accredited at a level of learning equivalent to level 3 on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF) for England.

This qualification has been developed by Open Learning College to meet the specific needs of our learners and has been accredited by QLS demonstrating the learning activity has reached the required Quality Licence Scheme standards and benchmarks.

The Quality Licence Scheme recognises a provider’s commitment to high-quality courses in the non-regulated sector, by evaluating quality processes and endorsing an organisation.

Grading & How it Works

The UK has a unique higher education grading system. Its most unique feature compared to traditional grading systems is that it aims to be more specific in describing students’ academic achievement.

This type of assessment method is highly valued because it offers many advantages. Most importantly it highlights your academic strengths and specific skills, therefore, it helps employers gain a better understanding of your true potential.

Since it is proved to be such an efficient tool to assess students’ performance, many foreign countries like Canada, Australia and India are using the same grading system on some occasions with small changes to fit into their own local educational context.

We use a letter grade scale from A to F to indicate the students’ academic performance. If you get an A it means you have shown outstanding knowledge whereas if you get an F it means your score is not sufficient to pass the exam.

The Customer Relations (Level 2) course exceeded my expectations in every aspect. The modules are well-designed, covering essential topics such as customer care and telephone etiquette in detail. I found the practical exercises and case studies to be particularly beneficial, as they allowed me to apply theoretical concepts to real-world situations. The support from the course tutors was exceptional, providing timely feedback and guidance throughout my studies. This course has equipped me with the skills and confidence to provide excellent customer service. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to enhance their customer relations skills.
