Smart thinking. Strong relationships. Work that makes an impact.
At Symphony Talent, we help our 900+ clients worldwide connect with people in ways that matter. We combine insight, creativity and technology to build employer brands that attract, engage and retain talent - and we do it with people firmly at the centre.
The Studio at Symphony Talent is where our strategy comes to life - turning insight into bold ideas, and ideas into work that shows up across the entire candidate journey. Client Managers play a key role here, helping translate client needs into clear direction for creative teams, and keeping work moving smoothly from brief to delivery. Everything we do is backed by our tech and media capabilities, so our work doesn’t just look good, it delivers real results.
With teams across New York, London, Bangalore and Belfast, we work globally, with a hands-on, collaborative culture that values curiosity, ownership and learning.
The Role
As a Graduate Client Manager, you’ll take your first step into client management within a creative studio environment. You’ll support our Client Management team by helping keep projects moving, clients informed, and teams aligned.
Alongside client work, you’ll also get involved in Studio-led initiatives that elevate Symphony Talent’s creative presence in the market - from case studies to thought leadership and internal projects.

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.
This role is ideal for someone curious, organised and eager to build a career in client services or account management within a creative studio environment.
