ABOUT THE COMPANY
We’re working with an ambitious, fast-growing marketing agency that is looking for an experienced Account Director to join its senior team.
This is a genuinely varied role that combines senior client leadership, strategic marketing, team management, and commercial growth. You’ll take ownership of a portfolio of entrepreneurial, fast-growth clients, working closely with senior stakeholders to develop marketing strategies that deliver tangible business results.
The agency has built a strong reputation for challenging traditional approaches to marketing and creating engaging, commercially focused content for its clients. With growth firmly on the agenda, this is an opportunity for someone who wants to have a real influence on both client success and the continued development of the agency.
This is a business that is deliberately doing things differently. Rather than relying on traditional, high-cost marketing tactics, they focus on creating valuable, engaging content that helps ambitious businesses grow.
Think strategic content, video, podcasts, campaigns, and creative ideas that genuinely resonate with audiences.
The culture is collaborative, ambitious, and down-to-earth. People are encouraged to take ownership, challenge ideas, develop their skills, and have fun while doing great work.
