Social Media / PR Placement

Our Press Relations and Social Media department has two roles available, one for each area of its work. The two teams work closely together, which means we can provide a single recruitment stream for candidates, giving you a better recruitment experience.

The roles will give you the chance to learn how this busy and influential department works and to develop valuable skills. On the social media side you will respond directly to Toyota and Lexus’s social audiences, providing accurate information and publishing content to different platforms. Where Press Relations is concerned, you will gain real-world experience in building and maintaining relationships between our brands and the media. You will have ample opportunities to bring new ideas to the team and help manage and monitor new product launches, from inception to completion.

The Press and Social team will encourage you to come up with ideas on how its processes and ways of working might be improved. You will also be encouraged to take ownership of specific projects, so we are looking for candidates with a good eye for detail. You will also have access to the Insights team, giving you the chance to learn to analyse, code and report on social conversations.
