Public relations professionals

developing social media strategies to engage with the audience, serving as the sole PR lead or agency PR officer in smaller organisations and engaging with the public and local communities. If that's your week, this page is about your job.

The honest answer

Most tasks in this job are the kind AI has learned to do: updating the company's social media sites with relevant content. The tasks, though, are not you.

Your move: three real directions from here ↓

It would be a lie to soften that; developing and maintaining professional relationships with stakeholders and senior managers is what this work rebuilds around. The plan below starts there.

Your week, as this page understands it

Public relations professionals plan, organise and co-ordinate the activities that promote the image and understanding of an organisation and its products or services to consumers, businesses, members of the public and other specified audiences. The job title says “public relations professionals”. The real job is the part underneath: developing and maintaining professional relationships with stakeholders and senior managers. That is the thing someone has to be right about.

The exposed part of this job is specific, and we won’t pretend it is coming back. But public relations professionals is not one task. It is 135 scored ones, and they are nowhere near equally exposed. The most durable of them, on this evidence, is developing and maintaining professional relationships with stakeholders and senior managers, and the ledger below shows exactly why.

These bars are tasks changing hands, not people being counted out. The ledger below shows which.

Whole-job exposure score 59 out of 100 (5465 allowing for uncertainty): partial exposure, across 135 scored tasks. The number is the support for the sentence above it, not a headline about anyone’s future.

How we know this

What is measured: Every published task statement for public relations professionals is rated on five dimensions: can a model produce the output, does the work need a body in a room, does it need a legally accountable person, does it depend on a person being trusted in the moment, and how much data exists. A published formula turns those five ratings into the score; the model never writes the number.

How the bar is built: Each task’s share of the bar is its published importance weight, so a task you do all day counts for more than one you do twice a year.

People doing this job
81,300in the UK, 2026.nomis-aps · Apr 2025-Mar 2026 (latest APS 12-month period)This headcount comes from a survey, not a census, so treat it as a good estimate rather than an exact count.

What is deliberately not here: a forecast of how many of these jobs exist in ten years. Where an official projection exists for a market we publish it with its vintage; where it does not, we leave the space empty rather than borrow the other country’s number.

Why this is shifting

The reason is boringly specific. Most of what is shifting here is reading one thing and writing another: the company's social media sites in, a record out. The rows above are exactly that shape: updating the company's social media sites with relevant content and creating posts for social media to engage with the audience. What it cannot do is be trusted in person, which is what professional relationships run on: someone specific doing it and standing behind it. Which is why this page talks about your tasks changing, not your job ending.

Your move

Over a pint: what I’d tell you if you were my friend

The exposed part of your job is the biggest part, and I am not going to dress that up: updating the company's social media sites with relevant content is work today's tools do quickly and cheaply, and that is not coming back.

So, given all that: 59% of this job's task weight sits in rows the software is already learning, 11% in rows that change shape rather than disappear, and 30% in rows it is nowhere near. That is the position, measured across 135 scored tasks. It is not a forecast about you.

What you have that the software does not is developing and maintaining professional relationships with stakeholders and senior managers, plus the years of knowing when something looks wrong before you can say why. That is the raw material for everything below.

This week: one thing

Sit on the machine's side of the desk. Pick one real piece of the company's social media sites you would normally do yourself, let whatever software you already have take the first pass at it, and then go through what it produced and write down every single thing it got wrong. One evening this week. Do not fix anything yet. Just catch it.

What you end up holding
a written list of the machine’s mistakes, in your handwriting
How long it takes
an evening, or an hour if you pick one job rather than one client

If you can’t run software on your employer’s or your clients’ data: Do the same hunt on paper. Take one printed piece of the company's social media sites, work through it the way you always do, and mark every point where you made a call rather than followed a rule. Same evening, same list, nothing to log into and nobody to ask permission from. That list is the same artifact: it is the judgment written down.

Over the next 90 days

Change one sentence about what you do. Not on a CV. Out loud, to whoever pays you. From “my job is updating the company's social media sites with relevant content” to “I check what the software does and tell you what it means.” Your error list from this week is what makes that sentence true instead of a claim, so use it: show it once, to one person, inside the next ninety days. Same skills, priced as judgment rather than as typing.

Over the next 12 months

Walk toward the end of this job that answers for things, and get it recognised. Pick the one part of developing and maintaining professional relationships with stakeholders and senior managers you are already best at, and spend the year making it formal: a qualification, a named responsibility, a specialism people ask for by name. Price it honestly: that is evenings, it is months rather than weeks, and the seats are competitive because everyone in your position is looking at the same door. Before you pay for anything, spend an hour with National Careers Service. It is free and government-funded, and it is listed below with the rest of the free routes.

The roads out of here, and why I am not sending you down them

I looked at the obvious moves out of this job, and here is what I found.

I checked the 12 nearest UK occupations to public relations professionals (nearest by the work that AI is not taking, not by job title), and none of them survived. The closest was public relations and communications directors: only about 10% of its durable work is work you already do. Your own job splits about 59/41: that share of the list sits in the top exposure band and the rest does not. On this evidence the honest move is inside the job rather than out of it. Become the person who owns “build strong media relationships to promote clients effectively”, and let the exposed end go.

How that was checked: this job was compared against all 412 UK occupations in this release on their official task statements, and the 12 nearest were examined one by one. A move that turns on an industry, an employer or a qualification rather than on the work itself will not show up in a check like that. And this release carries no licence register, so anything you are weighing needs that looked up separately.

3 moves I checked and rejected

These are the obvious-looking jumps. They are here with their reasons rather than quietly dropped, because the ones that fail are worth knowing about. It is one less thing to turn over at night.

  • Public relations and communications directors

    Why it looked obvious: It came up as a near neighbour because one of your tasks is on their list in the same words: “build strong media relationships to promote clients effectively”. Across the whole of both lists that adds up to about 10% of the work in that job the software is not taking.

    Why I am not recommending it: You would be starting most of it from nothing: about 10% of the durable work in that job is work you do today, and the rest you would be learning while the bills carried on.

    Look at that job’s page anyway →

  • Marketing and commercial managers

    Why it looked obvious: It came up as a near neighbour because one of your tasks is on their list in the same words: “develop and maintain professional relationships with stakeholders and senior managers”. Across the whole of both lists that adds up to about 4% of the work in that job the software is not taking.

    Why I am not recommending it: Almost none of it is work you already do: about 4% of the durable side of that job. That is a different job, not a next step.

    Look at that job’s page anyway →

  • Advertising accounts managers and creative directors

    Why it looked obvious: It came up as a near neighbour on the work AI is not taking: you already assign, supervise, and review the activities of public relations staff, and their equivalent is to assign, supervise, and review the activities of fundraising staff. Across both published task lists that is about 4% of the durable work in that job.

What I’d stop worrying about

A friend tells you what not to spend fear on. This is that list.

  • The headline number you read somewhere

    The big “X% of jobs” figures are about the whole economy, not about you. The number that describes your job is on this page: 59% of its task weight, across 135 scored tasks. Every row behind it is printed above with the source. Check ours; ignore theirs.

  • “It’s too late for me to become something else”

    You are not starting from zero, and the page shows why: developing and maintaining professional relationships with stakeholders and senior managers is work the software cannot do and you already do it. The move above is a repricing of what you know, not a new career. Nobody who has just left college has that.

  • “I should learn to code”

    Almost certainly not. The value in your job is moving toward checking, deciding and answering for the output, not toward writing the software. A weekend of Python will not change your position; the error list from this week will.

  • The “obvious” next job everyone suggests

    I checked the obvious moves and most of them did not survive. The reasons are printed with the routes above, including the pay and the gate. A move that fails on the numbers is worth knowing about so you can stop turning it over at night.

There's no Space built for public relations professionals yet.

Collab365 Spaces is built by the same people as this site. We find the problems that AI and automation are creating inside one kind of work, then solve them as short courses, briefings and Blueprints. Each Space is the community too, so the research and the people doing your job are in the same place.

The closest match is The AI Authority, a community for non-technical managers and domain experts turning one-off AI prompts into workflows a team can trust. It overlaps with the part of your job that is growing: briefing and checking AI-assisted drafting where being wrong is expensive. It is not a communications Space. If that overlap isn't you, the free route below covers the same ground.

Questions people ask about this job

Will AI replace Public relations professionals?
Not as a job, but it is already doing parts of the work. Across the 135 official task statements scored for Public relations professionals (United Kingdom, SOC 2493), 59% of the importance-weighted core work is made of tasks today's AI could already do most of. The overall exposure score is 59 out of 100 (range 54–65, band: partial). That is a statement about tasks, not about headcount: this measures what AI could do, not whether any employer adopts it, whether the law allows it, or whether doing the routine parts faster creates more demand for the human parts. Figures are from release 2026-q4.1.
Which tasks in “Public relations professionals” can AI already do?
The highest-scoring tasks in release 2026-q4.1 are: “Update the company's social media sites with relevant content” (93/100, very high); “Write press releases to publicise client music or tours” (93/100, very high); “Collate and analyse media coverage” (93/100, very high). Each score comes from five published 0–4 ratings turned into a number by a published formula, and each carries the model's one-sentence reason on the page.
Which tasks in “Public relations professionals” stay human?
About 30% of this job's task weight sits in work that scores low for AI exposure. The lowest-scoring tasks in release 2026-q4.1 are: “Participate in select committee hearings, party conferences, and other relevant events” (0/100, minimal); “Attend industry conferences for networking” (0/100, minimal); “Represent the company at press launches” (0/100, minimal). Low scores usually mean the task needs a body in a room, a legally accountable human, or trust built in real time. Those are the three things the scoring rubric treats as gates rather than obstacles.
What should someone working in “Public relations professionals” do about AI?
Start from the ledger rather than the headline: 59% of this job's weighted core work is exposed, and roughly 30% is not. The practical move is to spend more of your week on the tasks that score low, the ones above, and to get fluent at directing AI through the tasks that score high, because those are the parts that change whether or not you are ready for them. This page does not predict your job, and nothing here is career advice tailored to you: the score describes the occupation, not the person.
How is the AI exposure score for Public relations professionals calculated?
Each official task statement for the occupation is rated on five published 0–4 dimensions (output replicability, physical embodiment, licensed accountability, real-time human trust, and data availability) by claude-opus-5 using scoring prompt task_scoring_v1.0. The model never writes the score; a published formula turns the five ratings into a 0–100 number, so every score can be recomputed by hand. The occupation figure is the importance-weighted mean across 135 scored tasks. The prompt, the rubric, the formula and the full dataset are published at https://futureproof.collab365.com/method and https://futureproof.collab365.com/data/2026-q4.1 under CC BY 4.0.

Where these numbers come from

About the data on this page

  • Provisional, because the ONS revises this figure in the autumn.
  • This headcount comes from a survey, not a census, so treat it as a good estimate rather than an exact count.
  • The match between this job and its counterpart in the other country is partial, so the two pages count slightly different groups of people.
  • 48 of this occupation's scored task statements carry a score that was measured under a different occupation's context, because the statement is shared between jobs and has only been scored once so far. Each one names the occupation it was measured under in the free routes below; none is presented as a measurement for this job.
  • Task clusters are not derived in this release, so the task-cluster field is empty and no Collab365 Space routing is attached to this occupation yet.

Figures on this page come from release 2026-q4.1, published 2026-08-05. Every release keeps its own permanent address, so a figure you cite in March is still there, unchanged, in November.

The plain-English wording on this page is assembled directly from the task statements and the published ratings, not written by hand for this occupation. That is why it is specific, and it is also why we say so.

The routes and free resources further up are today’s, not the release’s (last reviewed 2026-08-05). A route is an offer, not a historical fact, so it moves on its own clock.
