PR CONSULTANT

As a PR consultant you should have excellent organisational skills, creativity, and enjoy giving advice. You generally work in an agency or company for one or more clients. You enjoy the creation of concepts that your clients shine in the public light. You should be responsive to your clients’ wishes and to help make their image successful through your consulting. As an interface between your clients and the media, you will never get bored in this profession. You are responsible for writing and sending press releases, invitations to PR events or press conferences, as well as organising events. You sometimes also create magazines, brochures, and business reports, which usually profit from good design and conceptual skills. Anyone who wants to work as a PR consultant needs a feel for trends, the ability to communicate clearly, and a willingness to quickly familiarise with unfamiliar topics. You internalise your role as a service provider, which means doing spontaneous assignments, being reachable by telephone, and accepting assignments for evening and weekend appointments. You will be rewarded with variety and responsibility for exciting projects.
