Working at Bou

When joining Bou, you'll get to work directly with our 170+ brands, ranging from early-stage companies to more established brands, universities, and nonprofits. And we really do mean directly – we don’t have key account managers or pure strategists at Bou. You'll become a part of an all-hands-on-deck team building brands through marketing, communications, design, and web development.

Your daily tasks

Our next communications team member will most likely have experience in leading and executing PR and media relations for multiple brands. They’ll likely have a very proactive approach to media work: someone that can craft a solid PR strategy but is constantly on the lookout for new opportunities and angles to promote our brands and their key spokespersons.

Experience in other areas of communications such as communications strategy, content and copywriting, or crisis communications is considered a plus.

Optimally, our next hire would also be ready to lead brand work for a client or two from the get-go: guaranteeing that our creative work is aligned with the brand, keeping the client happy, and managing projects in a smooth manner.

Are you located in London? We will also be looking for London-based team members during 2024.
