Interim Commercial Director | Creative & Digital Agency
London (Hybrid – 3 days per week)
January – May 2027 | 4-month contract
I'm working with an ambitious, independent creative and digital agency looking for an experienced Interim Commercial Director to step into a founder-led commercial role during a four-month period of paternity cover.
The agency works across branding, UI/UX, digital experiences and motion, partnering with startups, scaleups and established global brands.
This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced agency leader who enjoys being hands-on commercially, building relationships and driving revenue, rather than simply overseeing strategy.
The Opportunity
- Take ownership of the agency's commercial function, inheriting an established client base, warm relationships and an active sales pipeline.
- Lead and support an existing three-person business development and marketing team.
- Drive new business, personally leading pitches, proposals, negotiations and deal closures.
- Identify opportunities to grow existing accounts, reactivate previous clients and develop strategic partnerships.
- Shape commercial and marketing strategy, ensuring activity translates into profitable revenue.
- Work closely with creative and delivery teams to ensure commercial commitments are realistic and margins protected.
Who We're Looking For
- Ideally, someone with 10+ years' experience in the creative, branding or digital agency world, with a strong track record of commercial leadership and personally winning business.
- You might be a former Agency Founder, Managing Director, Commercial Director or senior New Business / Client Services Director who's comfortable stepping into an established business, making decisions independently and delivering results quickly.
- The agency offers a collaborative, entrepreneurial environment, genuine commercial autonomy and the opportunity to make a tangible impact over a relatively short period.
- There's also potential for the contract to extend, subject to performance and business requirements.
