• Managing timelines, budgets, and client communications with precision and professionalism
• Collaborating with creative, strategy, and production teams to bring ideas to life
• Leading status meetings and ensuring all stakeholders are aligned
• Overseeing asset development and delivery across digital, social, OOH and broadcast
• Building trusted relationships with clients and internal teams
• Proactively identifying opportunities to drive creative excellence

A Bit About You & Your Previous Experience

• Proven experience as a Senior Account Executive in a creative agency environment
• Strong understanding of integrated 360 campaigns, with hands‑on experience in video and TV production
• Confident managing multiple workstreams and stakeholders
• Excellent communication and organisational skills
• A passion for creativity and culture, with a sharp eye for detail
• Comfortable working in a fast‑paced, collaborative environment

• Three ‘Time Well Taken’ days throughout the year where we switch off collectively
• On‑demand 1 : 1 mental health and coaching support through MyndUp (alongside a free Headspace membership)
• Subsidised on‑site massages, haircuts and manicures – plus cuddles from furry friends (we're a dog‑friendly office)
• Free onsite breakfast, snacks and drinks, with regular ‘Lounge Nights’ in our rooftop social space
• Learning tools like SPARK, LinkedIn Learning, and access to external development via NABS, WACL, IPA and more
