Job Title: Senior Account Manager
Major Players are partnering with one of the world’s fastest-growing independent experiential and youth marketing agencies to recruit for a Senior Account Manager. This is a hands-on, mainly office-based role sitting within the client services account team, with field work where campaigns require it and regular UK and international travel for client meetings, campaign delivery, conferences, and events.
You’d understand integrated campaigns and the marketing mix, with a strong grasp of student brand ambassador programmes and how they build authentic, scalable engagement with youth audiences. Further to this, you’d be happy working with alcohol brands and in alcohol-led environments (licensed venues, events, and activations).
Responsibilities:
- Deliver end-to-end, multi-channel campaigns that meet the client brief, suit the target audience, and achieve agreed objectives and KPIs, with clear measurement frameworks and reporting.
- Apply strong knowledge of student brand ambassador programmes across planning, activation, management, and evaluation.
- Work effectively across global teams and markets, developing and deploying practical toolkits for consistent regional delivery, and responding promptly to market requests within global strategy, budgets, and guidelines.
- Plan and manage campaign budgets, client conferences, and events, and the retention, profitability, and growth of client accounts.
- Manage the performance and development of junior team members, and identify and convert new business opportunities through proposals and pitches.
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.
Experience required:
- At least four years in a client services role, ideally within an experiential, event-based, or social agency.
- Strong understanding of student brand ambassador programmes, including recruitment, training, activation, and performance measurement.
- Experience working across global teams and multiple markets, including creating and deploying toolkits for regional implementation.
- Experience setting KPIs, reporting on campaign performance, and turning results into clear recommendations.
- Experience managing and developing a team, and organising conferences, summits, or multi-stakeholder events.
- Experience with alcohol-brand accounts is preferred but not essential; comfort working in alcohol-led environments is required.
