I’m currently partnering with an independent integrated agency that is looking for an experienced Account Director to take ownership of a portfolio of clients across media, creative and digital projects.
This is not a role for someone who wants to sit behind the scenes. We’re looking for a commercially minded client leader who can independently manage relationships, drive projects from brief to delivery, and act as a trusted advisor to their clients. You’ll be given genuine autonomy and the opportunity to make decisions, influence outcomes and help shape the future growth of accounts.
Working closely with creative, media and technology specialists, you’ll oversee a range of integrated projects spanning brand campaigns, performance marketing initiatives and digital solutions. You’ll be responsible for developing scopes of work, managing timelines and budgets, coordinating internal resources and ensuring projects are delivered on time and to the highest standard.
A major part of the role is building strong client partnerships. You’ll be the first point of contact, someone who understands the commercial realities of a client’s business and can provide strategic guidance, manage expectations and identify opportunities for growth. This position suits someone who enjoys being proactive, solving problems before they become issues and maintaining strong momentum across multiple projects simultaneously.
To be successful, you’ll have at least five years’ experience within an integrated agency environment and a proven track record of running accounts independently. You will understand how to scope projects, manage profitability and maintain outstanding client relationships. Experience working across creative, media and digital projects is essential, along with exceptional attention to detail and highly developed communication skills.
Candidates coming from smaller agencies will be particularly well suited, as will those who thrive in entrepreneurial environments where collaboration, accountability and initiative are highly valued. Experience within financial services or other regulated industries will be viewed favorably, although it is not essential.
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a growing agency where you’ll have a genuine voice, direct access to clients and the ability to make a meaningful impact on both the work and the business. If you’re looking for a role that combines strategic client leadership, commercial responsibility and integrated project delivery, I’d love to hear from you.
