£55,000 - £65,000 + Tailored Bonus & Benefits Package
Are you an experienced Account Director who thrives in a fast-paced retail environment? Do you enjoy becoming a true extension of your client's team, building trusted relationships and providing strategic guidance rather than simply processing projects?
I'm currently recruiting on behalf of a highly respected marketing services and print solutions provider for an Account Director to take ownership of a key retail account. This is a fantastic opportunity to work closely with a major multi-site retailer, supporting the delivery of a wide range of marketing communications and retail campaigns.
This is a relationship-led role where success will come from your ability to guide, advise and support the client, helping them navigate challenges, identify solutions and ensure projects are delivered seamlessly.
The Opportunity
As the dedicated Account Director, you'll become the senior point of contact for the client, developing strong stakeholder relationships and acting as a trusted advisor across multiple projects and campaigns.
