Account Director / Senior Account Director

I’m working with an independent healthcare creative agency looking for an established Account Director or newly promoted Senior Account Director who enjoys getting close to clients, shaping their thinking and helping bring ambitious ideas to life.

This is a boutique team where you’ll have a real voice in the work and the relationships you lead. Working closely with senior leadership, you’ll take ownership of global healthcare accounts, understand what clients are trying to achieve and help them decide how to get there. There’s room to question a brief, suggest a different approach and develop opportunities that take the relationship forward.

The agency’s roots are in creative and commercial brand strategy, with work spanning brand development, product launches and sales enablement. Its medical communications offering is also growing, bringing opportunities to work across educational programmes and more scientific projects.

The opportunity

You’ll lead senior client conversations, shape account plans and work closely with creative, medical and strategy colleagues to develop thoughtful, effective work. You’ll also spot opportunities for organic growth and play an active part in the agency’s continued development.

You’ll need to enjoy being hands-on. Alongside project management support, you’ll stay close to delivery, work through challenges and roll up your sleeves when needed. For someone who likes both the thinking and the doing, there’s plenty to get involved in.

About you

You’ll be an established Account Director or newly promoted Senior Account Director with healthcare creative agency experience and a strong grounding in pharmaceutical brand communications.

You’ll bring:

• Experience leading global healthcare accounts and building trusted senior client relationships.
• The confidence to challenge briefs constructively and guide clients towards better solutions.
• Commercial judgement, with experience developing accounts and identifying growth opportunities.
• A collaborative approach and the ability to work confidently across creative, strategy and medical teams.
• A willingness to take ownership and stay involved in delivery within a small agency.

Exposure to medical education would be useful, but your healthcare brand and commercial experience will be particularly relevant.

If you enjoy the variety, visibility and involvement that come with working in a boutique agency, this is an opportunity to make your mark while working closely with the people shaping the business.
