Job Description

Marketing Scout has been asked to scout out a talented PR consultant or PR consultancy to help launch an exciting new product into the financial services sector. Our client is set to become a market leader in driving innovation in the Pre-Paid Card market in the UK, a concept that has already begun to revolutionise how consumers pay for a multitude of goods and services in the USA.

This organisation was set up and is being run by major players with significant industry experience, tonnes of market insight and the right backing both technically and financially. And although the company was only founded 18 months ago, they are already well ahead of the competition in terms of new product development.

Due to existing successes of delivering 3rd party solutions and significant in-house NPD, they are now preparing to launch their own branded product direct to market. The Launch is set for March/April 2010 and therefore require the very best PR talent to help plan and deliver a high impact PR campaign, which they believe is pivotal to the success of the product.

This is a tremendous opportunity for a talented individual or agency to shine and be part of a dynamic new product launch that could significantly change consumer spending behaviour in the future. This is a fast paced, truly entrepreneurial organisation and hands-on management team with plenty of scope for further work (potentially ongoing retainer) post launch.

If you think you or your organisation has the experience, passion and energy we are looking for, please get in touch with one of our Chief Scouts, Helen  ASAP for more information on 0845 680 1806 and register your details on the Marketing Scout "Pitch List" on the following link http://www.marketingscout.co.uk/MarketingScout/pitchlist.asp so that we can keep you up to date on other suitable opportunities.

 

Qualifications
To be considered for this opportunity you need to be either an experienced PR consultant or a PR consultancy, ideally with an existing working knowledge and successful track record of launching new products and services in the FS and/or Travel sector. Previous examples of working in B2B and the youth market would also be advantageous.
