Senior Account Manager

I’m working with an integrated, boutique branding agency who are on the lookout for a top senior account manager.

This is a fabulous opportunity for an SAM to join and embrace a pivotal role in driving the business forward. Working with a range of B2B/B2C clients, established and start up, you will be part of a collaborative creative process.

We’re looking for someone who’s hard working, committed, professional, good with people and who will do whatever it takes to get the project handed over successfully.

You will be given the freedom to think creatively and grow alongside the team. The role will be predominantly managing the existing client base alongside managing a network of suppliers but also developing new business, content creation and social media. You will need the start-up mentality of all hands-on deck.

In return, we’ll make sure there’s a friendly, helpful and rewarding environment. We want someone to grow with the business and so career progression is important to us here.

We’re looking to build an in-studio culture and capture the moments of creativity that come from in person relationships. A culture that we pass on to our clients through our personable, consultative account management style. The role would be office based for initial training but then open to remote working moving forward. Founded by two best friends, we have a real passion for the work we do but equally value time for inspiration and the social side essential to the creative sector.
