    Default job background
    Description

    This position sits in our Marketing & Technology service based in London. We combine data, technology, creative content, and paid media to crack brands' business problems & drive revenue through a variety of digital marketing solutions like ad campaigns, augmented reality, and chatbots. Our clients include ASOS, Just Eat Takeaway, Twitch, TikTok, and The White Company.

    JOB PURPOSE

    Senior Account Director's lead on all the work we deliver for a suite of clients and they sit in our structure alongside the other 'Heads of...' (e.g. Media, Creative).

    We don't believe in siloed teams – content, technology, media and data overlap in all roles. This person will oversee development of the strategy for the brands they lead, including managing a team. They will represent Dept to our clients, adding value to relationships beyond organisational skills doing a mixture of account management and strategic planning, not your typical suit.

    We need someone who understands our client's customers, who can put themselves in their shoes to create strategies and ideas that exceed expectations, who understands that brands are competing for consumers' attention and have at best a couple of seconds to inspire some sort of interaction. We need people who can come up with big ideas as well as lots of little ones that are framed in a solid strategy grounded in insight and ultimately deliver a tangible ROI for our clients. Most importantly, we need a leader who inspires their team and earns the respect of senior clients.

    Candidates must have experience managing teams and complex campaigns for brands and be calm and controlled in high pressure situations. Equally, experience with delivering commercial success in an agency model is important.

  • Contribute to our creative process by sharing your ideas and experience
  • Oversee budget management for clients, including campaigns and always on activity
  • Manage relationships with platforms and partners
  • Present work internally and externally

  • Experience managing large client and agency teams

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Advanced problem-solving skills
  • A high attention to detail and excellent organisational skills / time management skills
  • Ability to react quickly within a fast-paced environment
