Press Assistant

Bread and Butter is a PR agency working in the UK across the cultural sector – from arts and music to theatre and dance, and written and spoken word.

The Press Assistant role is for an organised individual supporting a busy press office. They should have a passion for arts and culture and an interest in a career in PR, with a year’s experience in a similar environment, or having completed an internship in a similar environment.

We offer a hybrid system to work both at our office in Somerset House, London, and from home. There are regular times when you will be needed in person at a meeting or to work at an event, and these are usually in London, but may be in other UK locations depending on the project.

Bread and Butter PR is committed to being an equal opportunities employer and we welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and abilities. The company will ensure that no applicant or employee receives less favourable treatment on the grounds of gender, age, disability, religion, belief, sexual orientation, marital status, or race.
