Account Executive, Tech

As part of one of the largest independent strategic communications agencies in the world — with 22 offices globally and more than 1,100 people — our UK team brings together deep sector expertise, diverse thinking and creative problem-solving to help brands lead through complexity. With roots in technology, innovation and societal change, we’ve spent decades at the intersection of technology and humanity — bridging the gap between what businesses create and how people experience those creations.

In a world defined by relentless change — from rising expectations and widening inequalities to disruptive technology and constant noise — even the strongest organisations can struggle to be heard. That’s where We. comes in. What sets us apart isn’t just what we do, but how we do it. We thrive where disciplines intersect — when social impact meets youth engagement, technology meets science, or corporate reputation meets health — and our teams are designed deliberately with this in mind.

For 40 years, We. has shown the power of working together. In the UK, we carry that spirit forward every day — challenging assumptions, applying innovation and helping organisations find clarity, relevance and growth in an ever-evolving world. When you join We., you will find compelling work, global partnerships, worthwhile professional development, outstanding benefits and the opportunity to make a difference. We value those who share our belief in the power of change, discovery and innovation. We invest in our future by creating an open and welcoming workplace full of bright, skilled and determined people.

In London, We. is committed to a hybrid working model, supporting a working arrangement with at least two days in the office per week, one of which must be Thursday. This approach enables us to nurture a culture of collaboration, flexibility, and inclusivity.

This is a great chance for an ambitious, experienced Account Executive to take the next step in their career and experience the opportunities that come from working for an international agency with great ambitions.
