Job Description:

HEAD OF CLIENT SERVICE – GLOBAL SPORTS AGENCY

We’re partnering with a world-class sports agency that’s going through an exciting phase of growth – and they’re on the hunt for a Head of Client Service to help steer the ship.

The Role:

Reporting directly to the MD (you’ll be their right-hand), you’ll take the lead on a multi-million pound portfolio of high-profile, global sports clients across football, motorsport, rugby, and more.

This is a senior leadership role – you’ll be overseeing all client business and leading a core team of 5–6 direct reports, with a broader account team beneath.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead and grow flagship sponsorship accounts across integrated campaigns – think activation, events, PR, social, hospitality and beyond.
• Be a strategic voice internally and externally – shaping brilliant work, driving growth, and spotting commercial opportunities.
• Inspire and mentor your team to deliver best-in-class work.
• Partner with the MD to shape agency direction and success.

What We’re Looking For:

• Proven experience in a top-tier agency (or a leading rights holder).
• Strong background in sponsorship activation.
• Solid integrated campaign experience – beyond sponsorship alone.
• A natural team leader with commercial acumen and a nose for client growth.
• UK-based and ready to hit the ground running.

This is a unique chance to join an ambitious, growing agency with serious global clout – and to be part of something genuinely special.

If this sounds like your right next move please get in touch today.

Pls note due to the high volume of applicants we will only be able to respond to those who are successful.
