The Opportunity

Samsung is the agency’s largest and most integrated account. With this comes unparalleled creative, strategic, and fulfillment opportunities to develop distinctive and innovative work for one of the world’s biggest and most influential brands of the 21st century.

We are looking for an enthusiastic and driven integrated Account Executive to join the Samsung UK Channel & Brand team who can set the pace, agenda, and high standards to deliver work through a variety of channels - from developing bespoke origination campaigns to managing the localization across Print, Digital, D/OOH, Social, Radio, and AV.

Working into the Account Director with support from Integrated Producers and the wider team, this role will require a mix of creative development, delivery, and management of projects across a wide portfolio of cutting-edge products and services.

The role requires individuals who thrive in an agile environment with obsessive attention to detail. You should be organized, flexible, and a natural problem solver.

The team is fun, supportive, with a brilliant collaborative client team, and is looking forward to growing further.

What you'd spend your day

• Supporting the Account Directors and Group Account Director in the smooth running of the account, while owning specific workstreams/projects.
• Building exceptional relationships with clients by gaining their trust and managing expectations effectively, liaising with media agency contacts and internal/external intermediaries.
• Being a key point of contact internally – connecting various departments and for clients across workstreams/projects.
• Taking ownership of small projects and overseeing them from start to finish, from receiving briefs through agency/external processes to delivery across media channels.

What we're looking for

Are you energetic, eager to learn, and proactive?

We’re seeking someone enthusiastic, curious, and ready to take on new challenges. You’ll be joining a motivated team, so a genuine interest in producing great work and helping move projects forward is key. You should be excited to learn, stay on top of trends, and support the team in delivering excellent results for clients.

Do you enjoy building strong relationships?

You don’t need to be an expert communicator just yet, but you should be excited about connecting with people. You’ll have the opportunity to work with internal teams and clients, so a positive attitude and the ability to share information clearly and kindly will help build trust. Being approachable and having a natural rapport-building ability will be important as you grow in the role.

Are you detail-oriented and organized?

Organization and attention to detail are essential as you support the team. You’ll assist with managing key processes, including financial tracking and client deliverables. Being proactive, reliable, and able to stay on top of tasks will help you contribute to the team’s success as you continue learning and developing.
