You will report directly to the Account Director and will be a key component in driving the agency forward via excellent account management and client development skills, ensuring every project is planned and delivered to a high specification. You will also work closely with your Account Director in client pitches and presentations, spotting areas of account growth.

What You'll Do:

• Lead and deliver integrated marketing campaigns with a focus on youth and student audiences (ages 18-30)
• Manage a team of up to 3, supporting their growth and performance, 121's etc
• Act as day-to-day contact for client relationships and campaign delivery
• Identify opportunities for account growth and contribute to new business development
• Own campaign budgets and financial reporting to ensure profitability
• Collaborate cross-functionally with creative, strategy, and production teams
• Be involved in campaign fieldwork, sometimes requiring UK/EU travel
• Support social and live event activations

What We’re Looking For:

• Confident team leader with experience developing talent
• Strong communicator, organised, and detail-obsessed
• Deep understanding of youth culture, social media trends, and what drives Gen Z
• Comfortable juggling multiple clients and deadlines in a fast-paced environment
• Big on ideas, collaboration, and creative problem-solving
• Exceptional attention to detail across decks, reports, and budgets
• Strong relationship-building skills (with clients, partners, and internal teams)
• Positivity and energy that uplifts your team and fuels culture
• A pulse on what’s trending, what’s coming next, and what makes young people tick
