Analyst – FRENCH speaking

Analyst – FRENCH speaking Overview

This role sits within the Rapid Intelligence team and is focused on producing high-quality media intelligence for clients. The position is based in the UK but supports work for France, so it requires someone who can operate in French while collaborating with colleagues across international teams. The work is centred on analysing large amounts of information, identifying what matters most, and turning that into concise briefings that help clients understand their media landscape and stay on top of important developments.

What you will do

• Build multimedia briefings by reviewing media coverage, grouping it into the right categories, selecting the most relevant material, and drawing attention to key developments or potentially sensitive issues.
• Take complex information and turn it into clear, accurate, and practical insights that clients can use.
• Monitor media coverage and client monitoring services, making sure the output remains accurate and meets quality standards.
• Support a portfolio of clients by answering questions and offering guidance when needed.
• Work with internal teams to solve issues and improve service delivery on an ongoing basis.
• Collaborate with international colleagues while being based in the UK and contributing to the team’s work for the French market.

• Fluency in French, together with strong written and spoken English.
• A bachelor’s or master’s degree in Humanities, Communications, Journalism, or a related discipline.
• Strong research, analytical, and problem-solving ability.
• Excellent attention to detail and a strong track record of working accurately.
• Good written and verbal communication skills.
• An organised, methodical approach and the ability to work independently.
• Comfort using digital tools and technology.
• Experience in client relations, media monitoring, research, or communications would be an advantage.

• Current location in the country of employment, since only candidates already based there can be considered.
• UK work authorisation, as the application asks whether you are authorised to work in the UK and whether you will need sponsorship in the future.
