We’re working with a growing performance marketing agency who are looking for a seriously strong Senior Account Director to join their leadership team.
This is a senior client leadership role for someone who can go beyond simply managing relationships. You’ll be expected to own your portfolio like it’s your own business - driving strategy, commercial growth, client relationships and the performance of the team around you.
You’ll be working across Media, Data and Creative, helping clients solve complex marketing challenges and turning that into clear, commercially focused strategies and roadmaps.
What you’ll be doing:
- Own a portfolio of clients and take responsibility for its commercial and strategic performance
- Build trusted relationships with senior stakeholders and C-suite clients
- Lead strategic account planning, business reviews and effectiveness roadmaps
- Identify and drive organic growth opportunities across your accounts
- Own forecasting, budgets, scope and commercial performance
- Lead and develop a high-performing client team
- Bring together Media, Data and Creative to deliver genuinely integrated solutions
- Challenge clients constructively and act as a strategic partner rather than simply an agency contact
- Help shape the future of the agency, including how they use AI, automation and emerging technology
- Play a wider role in developing the agency's proposition and ways of working
What we’re looking for:
This is a proper senior client leadership role, so you’ll need a strong track record within a performance marketing agency or consultancy environment.
You’ll ideally have:
- Direct experience of ASO and Apple Search Ads (ASA)
- Strong full-funnel performance marketing knowledge
- Excellent commercial and P&L understanding
- Experience owning sizeable client portfolios and driving organic growth
- The confidence and gravitas to operate at C-suite level
- A genuinely consultative approach to client relationships
- Experience leading and developing teams
- An interest in AI, automation and how technology is changing the agency model
You’ll also need a full driving licence and access to a car, as there is some client travel involved.
