Job Description

The role

We are supporting an innovative global creative agency with offices in locations around the world to find an Account Manager to join the team. They are recruiting for multiple roles handling some of their key clients and household names, including luxury partners, human rights organisations, charities, wellness brands and insurance firms among others.

The Agency

The agency has a truly inspiring output but this is done through a slightly different take on servicing accounts, with the senior team taking an active role in the work, not just the business. That’s because the team really love what they do, and it helps them provide cutting-edge solutions in strategy, design, and content creation. It results in flat structures with everyone close to and having both opportunity and responsibility for the work of their clients. Their mission revolves around reshaping desires to inspire action, delivering captivating and imaginative experiences throughout the customer journey. They have long standing relationships with their clients and continuously exceed expectations. Staff also tend to stay a long time and grow within the agency, and the business is diligently focused on making sure its workforce becomes more diverse and equitable.

What they’re looking for:

This agency really pushes itself to go above and beyond for its partners. And to them, effective account management is a mindset, not just a checklist of tasks. The ideal candidate will take ownership of the work, see their clients’ business as their own and will constantly be striving to ensure thorough consideration and meticulous attention to detail. The best creative outcomes happen when communication is seamless and this person will be the glue that brings account teams, clients and internal resources together.

You

You will be an established AM or a Senior Account Executive ready to step up, ideally with experience within marketing and advertising, but you could also come from a PR background. You’ll be adept at managing multiple projects seamlessly and you will be used to using your excellent attention to detail to calmly manage complex campaigns with lots of moving parts, demonstrating exceptional client handling, strong project management and an ability to take ownership of production.

Ultimately, you’ll be someone that really cares, who truly understands the role’s responsibilities and desires to contribute hands on to a high-performing team. The role is suitable for a confident, intelligent, and proactive individual who is passionate about the industry and wants to find a role and agency that they can grow their career in long term.

If all this sounds like you, and you want to know more then please apply below.

We are really interested in hearing from candidates that offer varied perspectives and welcome those from diverse backgrounds and minority groups.

We will try to get back to as many people as possible, but if you don’t hear from us within one week from sending your application, you unfortunately haven’t been successful this time.

Darain Faraz

Darain’s aversion to confined spaces took root during a fateful screening of ‘Buried,’ a film that immerses its audience in the gripping horror of a man awakening to find himself entombed alive. This intense fear of tight space has left an indelible mark on him. Beyond his mild-claustrophobic tendencies, Darain is also Co-founder of People Like Us, and former Director of Marketing at jobs behemoth LinkedIn internationally. Before his decade+ at LinkedIn, he resided in Australia where he ran comms for WWF’s Earth Hour, and MySpace (remember them?). He’s a regular on Marketing Week + PR Week top 100, has won a raft of industry recognition including the coveted Cannes Lions. But he’s more than his titles and his accolades, he’s a die-hard Kylie Minogue fan too. He has three lively kids and lives in Fiji (yup, you read that right). He also likes to take his shirt off at regular intervals (check out his ‘gram… or better still – don’t).

Mike Levaggi

What could be scarier than being stuck in a toilet cubicle with a wasp nest? Not much for our founder Mike (maybe having his face on a website) but definitely not making our industry fairer. He’s a northerner with Irish and Italian roots. In his 15 years in PR, he’s been a Senior Director of Assembly, head of consumer comms at Snap and a tech & gaming lead at Hope&Glory PR, winning over 50 industry awards. He’s also a former recruiter, the founder of the One Percent diversity initiative and co-founder of the PR Week Pay Gap Project. He’s been called a lot of things, but he’d call himself a problem solver. 

Sheeraz Gulsher

Sheeraz has both a fear and deep fascination of life after death. To face it, he’s taking solace by learning about the origin of world religions and reading the (not so) comforting words of many philosophers. Bit deep, but he’ll be fine, we promise.

Beyond his flirting with existential crises, Sheeraz is co-founder of People Like Us, the award winning non-profit that celebrates and supports professionals from underrepresented backgrounds in journalism, PR and the creative industries. Sheeraz is also an award winning PR professional with over a decade of experience both in-house at Snapchat and Sky, and at agencies including Hope&Glory and PrettyGreen. Sheeraz is a passionate campaigner for equal pay for ethnically diverse working professionals in the UK. He will often mention the one time someone said his celebrity lookalike is Riz Ahmed but in actual fact, he looks more like Bruno Fernandes (minus the sass). Top geezer all round.
