We exist to make our clients impossible to ignore. And that starts with the people we bring into this team.
We're looking for an Account Director who gets under a client's skin; who asks why, spots what others miss and makes everything matter. Someone who leads with confidence, coaches with care, and never treats quality as someone else's job.
You'll join Zircom's Birkenhead hub, working across a portfolio of B2B clients. You'll report to Nathan Harrison (Client Director) and work closely with our senior leadership to help ambitious businesses stand out where it matters most.
What you'll do
- Own senior client relationships and lead strategic direction across your accounts
- Drive integrated B2B campaigns that deliver real, measurable results
- Spot and develop new business opportunities – proactively, not reactively
- Coach and develop the Account Management team to deliver consistently excellent work
- Manage commercial performance: forecasting, profitability and account planning
- Be the kind of leader your team and clients trust without question
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What we're looking for
- Proven B2B agency experience at Account Director level (or a strong, ready-to-step-up SAM)
- A natural relationship builder – with clients and colleagues alike
- Strategic and commercial thinker who focuses on outcomes, not just outputs
- Someone who challenges a brief constructively and backs great ideas with confidence
- Strong team leader with a genuine interest in people's development
- Detail-obsessed, deadline-driven and genuinely proud of every piece of work
- Knowledge Synergist is preferred, with strong financial acumen being a must
The detail
- Location: Birkenhead (hybrid – Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday in office). Occasional travel to our Brighton hub.
- Salary: £50,000
- This is a permanent, full-time role.
