Leicester - hybrid
Pitch has the pleasure of partnering with one of Leicestershire’s longest-standing agencies. This team has not only stood the test of time, they’ve continued to adapt with the market – and they’re about to do it again.
Following the acquisition of another successful agency, the business is entering an exciting period of growth and transformation, and they’re looking for a talented Account Director to join them for the ride.
Reporting Structure
Reporting directly into the head of the Client Services team, you’ll work alongside a skilled team of account handlers and PR, content, social, creative, video, and digital specialists. It’s a genuinely full-service, integrated agency where great ideas don’t have to fit neatly into one channel.
Role Overview
So, where do you come in?
As Account Director, you’ll play a key role in the strategic thinking, consultation, and development of client campaigns, bringing together the right people and channels to deliver brilliant, joined-up solutions.
You’ll be an integrated thinker, comfortable working across online and offline marketing. You’ll know your Meta from your Google Ads, understand how SEO and web work together, be comfortable tackling a brand campaign, and appreciate the role CRM, content, social, and creative play within the wider marketing mix.
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.
You don't need to be the person physically delivering every channel – no one expects you to be an SEO expert, PPC whizz, and creative genius all rolled into one! But you'll understand the channels well enough to challenge, advise, and bring the right specialists together to create great work for your clients.
The role will give you plenty of variety – so if you like every day to look a little different, even better. You’ll cover client strategy and consultancy, project delivery, account growth, new business, team engagement, and plenty of face time with clients.
Requirements
What do you need?
Agency experience would be a big win! Failing that, you’ll need strong integrated marketing experience and a genuine understanding of how different channels work together.
You'll also need to be:
- An excellent communicator who builds strong client relationships.
- Commercially minded and confident spotting opportunities to grow accounts.
- Curious and consultative – someone who asks not only “why?” but “why not?”
- Comfortable working across digital, creative, and wider marketing channels.
- Confident leading projects, managing budgets, and keeping delivery on track.
- A team player who enjoys bringing people together to deliver great work.
- Comfortable getting involved in pitches and new business opportunities.

Benefits
If you’re looking for a challenge where you can make a difference, develop your career, and work with great clients and a genuinely lovely team, this could be it.
You’ll be rewarded with a generous salary and benefits package, a 3-day office / 2-day home hybrid working pattern, and a fantastic team around you.
