Role
Who you are
- Are in tune with the news agenda: obsessed by the media (traditional and digital), how the news cycle works and be able to spot and react to news opportunities
- Have strong copywriting skills: You need to be hot on spelling, grammar and proofreading, as well as have a creative flair for producing engaging, succinct copy
- Are customer obsessed and will put our members at the heart of everything we do
- Are very organised and detail-oriented, having the confidence to manage up to seniors, whilst having excellent coordination skills - especially given the remote nature of our work
- Have experience in a high growth scale up and thrive in this environment. You feel comfortable making decisions to act fast, pivot fast and drive the changing needs of a high growth start up company
- Are confident presenting virtually or in-person: From communicating ideas to your team to presenting stories to journalists, you need to organise information in a succinct and interesting way to capture their attention
- Have brilliant interpersonal skills: Whether it’s over the phone, by email or in person, PR is all about people, so being approachable, friendly and being able to relate to people on different levels is key
- Are good at time-keeping: You will often be working to tight media deadlines as well as meeting the demands and pressures of the tea, so you need to be able to work quickly and efficiently, without compromising on quality
- Are resilient: You need to be happy to pick up the phone to national journalists and resilient enough to handle feedback and rejection
- You’re a natural team player. A great collaborator who people enjoy working with and a demonstrated ability to work effectively with cross-functional teams

Our take
ZOE is a science-first nutrition company shaking up everything we thought we knew about healthy eating. Behind the bold mission is a simple truth: the food we eat is often making us sick, and one-size-fits -all advice just isn't cutting it anymore. So, ZOE is flipping the script with the world's largest nutrition study and real, personalised insights based on users' bodies.
Its approach is all about turning cutting-edge science into everyday habits. Whether it's through its ZOE Membership (which already has over 100,000 users), the plant-packed Daily30+ supplement, or expert-packed podcasts, its helping people discover what truly works for their bodies. And it's not just theory, randomised trials show that the right food can make a noticeable difference in just weeks.
