Senior Account Manager, AI PR

Location:
United Kingdom

Genius PR is an earned-media agency for AI, fintech and crypto companies, with teams across the UK, UAE and USA. We're hiring a Senior Account Manager to lead our AI accounts. This role is for someone based in the UK or Europe. Our AI clients are seed to Series B companies building models, developer tools and applied AI products. They hire us to get into the US and UK tech and business press, and to turn that coverage into authority their buyers and investors can see.

You'll run four to five AI retainer clients end to end: the story, the media relations, the client relationship and the results. You report to our Account Director and oversee junior account managers.

What you'll do

  • Own four to five AI accounts day to day, from the six-month narrative to the placements that prove it
  • Find the story inside a client's business (a launch, a benchmark, a hire, a customer number) and turn it into a pitch a reporter will answer
  • Pitch AI and tech reporters at outlets like TechCrunch, Wired, The Verge, Forbes, Bloomberg, Business Insider and VentureBeat
  • Explain a model launch or a technical milestone in plain language for business editors who don't cover AI every day
  • Plan funding rounds and product launches so press, podcasts and founder posts land in the same window
  • Book founders onto AI podcasts and speaking slots, and get every placement reused across their social and newsletters
  • Agree the results with each client in week one and report them monthly in numbers, not just a list of links
  • Coach and review the work of junior account managers on your accounts

You have

  • At least three years at a PR agency, with an agency role in the last three years
  • Current or recent experience as an Account Manager or Senior Account Manager at a tech, AI or fintech PR agency
  • Several client accounts run at the same time
  • Earned placements you pitched yourself in US or UK tech and business press (not sponsored, contributor or wire
  • syndication)
  • AI or consumer tech clients you can show us
  • Experience managing or mentoring junior staff
  • You live and work in the UK or Europe

Nice to have: fintech or crypto clients alongside AI, and working relationships with AI podcast hosts or event organisers.

Terms

Full-time, remote, contractor basis, with performance bonuses. You'll work broadly UK hours with a few hours' overlap into US East Coast afternoons.

How we hire

A 20-minute intro call, a paid practical task (a six-month story plan for an anonymised AI client, plus the numbers you'd report), then a call with our founder.

To apply

Send three earned placements you pitched yourself, with links, and one sentence on the hardest AI story you've landed.
