About the Company

An award-winning independent B2B creative agency is looking for an experienced Account Director to join its growing Client Services team. This is an excellent opportunity for a commercially aware client services leader who enjoys managing relationships, developing people and delivering strategic value for clients.

About the Role

You'll play a key role in managing and growing a portfolio of client accounts while leading and mentoring a small team. The agency is investing heavily in its future following a recent rebrand, refreshed values and a renewed focus on culture and performance. As Account Director, you'll be responsible for strengthening client partnerships, supporting account growth and helping to develop the next generation of talent within the business. This role requires someone who can balance strategic thinking with a hands-on approach to client delivery.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
