This is a packaging design agency and a genuine specialist in private brand and own-label work at global scale. It now sits within a global brand creation group spanning thousands of creators across dozens of studios, which means the security and cross-border reach of scale sit behind a leaner, low-ego studio culture where a senior leader stays close to the work.
This is a senior leadership role you're brought into for one reason: to hold the senior line during a maternity leave. You’ll protect the quality of thinking across the department, and keep a talented group of Account Directors growing rather than simply getting through the year.
The Role
You'll lead and develop a team of five Account Directors, coaching their commercial judgement and critical thinking rather than directing their tasks. You'll be the escalation point on complex accounts and challenging stakeholder situations, and you'll bring commercial clarity to pricing, scoping and profitability: reviewing quotations, assessing tenders, and helping teams see where value is created or protected.
