Full job description
We are a dynamic and fast-growing Digital Marketing Agency supporting some of the world’s most recognizable brands with compelling, data-driven campaigns that earn media coverage and build links that matter. We’re now hiring a Virtual Assistant (VA) to support our Head of PR with the research and data collection needed to fuel successful PR campaigns. This is a fully remote role with flexible working hours. Just bring your reliability, attention to detail, and passion for digging deep into online data.
What You’ll Do
You’ll support our PR team by sourcing accurate, relevant, and useful data for digital PR campaigns. This could include:
Researching and compiling lists of journalists, bloggers, influencers, and media outlets
Gathering data from websites, social platforms, and databases
Scraping information from search engines and third-party tools
Identifying relevant statistics or supporting evidence to back PR angles
Supporting the team with ad-hoc research tasks (e.g., identifying trends, local news, or contact info)
You’ll be reporting directly to the Head of PR and playing a crucial role in helping our team launch successful media campaigns.
What We’re Looking For
Experience:
Prior experience in a similar VA, research, or data entry role
Familiarity with data scraping tools or techniques (basic level is fine)
Experience researching contact information, media lists, or journalist databases
Background in PR, outreach, SEO, or digital marketing is a bonus
Skills:
Strong written and spoken English
Comfortable using Google Sheets/Excel and web-based tools
Highly organised, with strong attention to detail
Ability to manage time and tasks independently
Clear communicator who can take direction and deliver on deadlines
Able to distinguish between bloggers, news sites, and e-commerce businesses
Requirements:
Reliable high-speed internet connection
35 hours per week availability (7 hours/day, Mon–Fri)
Must work exclusively for us during those hours
Willingness to learn, take feedback, and grow within the team
Why Work For Us?
We value freedom, focus, honesty, and results. This role is ideal for someone who:
Wants a consistent remote job with room to grow
Enjoys behind-the-scenes work that has a visible impact
Likes structured tasks and producing clean, accurate work
Wants to be treated as a true part of the team—not just a contractor
You’ll receive 2 weeks of training with the Head of PR to get you up to speed, and continued support as you grow into the role.
