[Hiring] Founder Communications & PR Manager @Bold Bean Co

Role Description

We are looking for a creative and driven Founder Communications & PR Manager to help take Amelia’s voice further. Amelia is the face of Bold Bean Co, speaking at industry events such as Bread & Jam and Shoptalk Europe, and her personal channels are a direct line to customers, retailers, investors, and future hires.

This is a hands-on role where you will take ownership of delivering Amelia's founder comms every week. Our Food & Brand Storyteller sets the overall narrative across all Bold Bean Co channels, and you will bring it to life for Amelia and Ed - the writing, posting, and community engagement. Success in this role comes from capturing Amelia's voice, making confident calls, and taking a proactive, self-driven approach to getting things done.

Qualifications

• 3-6 years in communications, social media, content, PR, or brand management.
• Excellent copywriting skills, ideally including ghostwriting for a founder or senior leader.
• Strong understanding of LinkedIn and Instagram, including short form video.
• Confident editing photos and video into polished posts.
• PR experience and media contacts, ideally in food, FMCG, or business press, is a strong plus.
• Experience with a challenger or high growth brand is a nice to have.

Requirements

• A brilliant writer: You can write in someone else's voice so well it sounds like them, and you know what makes a post, a hook, or a headline land.
• Highly organised and self-directed: You're not overwhelmed by juggling content calendars, press opportunities, and two founders at once, and you get things done without being chased.
• A strong communicator: You're a natural relationship builder who collaborates well with producers, event organisers, and internal teams alike.
• Agile and adaptable: You adapt well to changing needs and priorities, and pivot easily to jump on a timely moment.
• Passionate about beans: You're eager to learn and absorb all things related to beans, brand, and food culture.

Benefits

• The chance to join a progressive, dynamic, and inclusive working culture where we value every person for who they are and what they uniquely bring to our business.
• The opportunity to work directly with our founders and help build one of the most recognisable founder voices in food, in one of the most exciting periods of the company’s growth.
• Learning and development both on the job and through training courses where needed.
• Competitive salary and bonus structure.
• Fixed core hours, 10am-3pm (CET), that fit around life outside work.
• Enhanced parental and sickness benefits.
• 27 holiday days (UK) or 24 holiday days (Spain), plus bank holidays (pro rata).
• Private Pension.
• Cycle scheme.
• Free beans!
• Workaway trips.
• Remote and flexible working.
• Weekly wellness hour (yoga, meditation, exercise).
• Apple hardware.
• Home office budget.
