You'll own the commercial growth, strategic direction and overall health of your accounts, serving as a trusted advisor to senior client stakeholders.

The core mandate is horizontal growth. You'll take our product design, technology and strategy services into new business units, divisions and geographies within existing clients.

This is a hands-on growth role. Alongside leading established relationships, you'll network into assigned target accounts and run outbound activity into cold accounts, turning first conversations into long-term partnerships. You'll work closely with the Exec Director of Client Services & Growth, Growth, Marketing and our global Client Partner community.

About You

• 10+ years in client services, account leadership or business development within a digital agency, consultancy or design and technology environment.
• A track record of managing and growing client accounts valued at multiple millions annually, including growing accounts from the lower end of that range to the upper end.
• Demonstrated success expanding services horizontally into new business units, divisions or geographies, within existing clients and in newly won organisations.
• Proven experience networking into target accounts and turning introductions into qualified opportunities with senior decision-makers.
• Hands‑on experience running outbound activity into cold accounts, and comfort owning that activity yourself rather than handing it off.
• Strong commercial judgement across revenue forecasting, margin, risk, pipeline management and opportunity qualification, using CRM tools such as Pipedrive or Salesforce.
• Solid understanding of digital product development, human-centred design and technology transformation.
• A skilled communicator, facilitator and negotiator who builds trust quickly and collaborates well with multidisciplinary teams.
• Inspiring, inclusive team lead who thrives on collaborating with multidisciplinary digital specialists to deliver tangible business outcomes.
• Able to rapidly understand client contexts, build relationships quickly, and deliver impact with minimal onboarding.
• Curious, proactive and self‑directed, with a hands‑on approach to execution.

New Business & Outbound Growth

• Networking into target accounts: Use your network, referrals, events and warm introductions to open new doors within assigned target accounts across our five verticals.
• Outbound into cold accounts: Run consistent, targeted outbound activity (research, personalised outreach, follow‑up sequences) to engage cold accounts where ustwo has no existing relationship.
• Pipeline building: Build and manage a pipeline of new opportunities aligned with ustwo's commercial priorities and your assigned verticals.
• Early‑stage conversations: Lead first meetings and discovery with senior decision‑makers, qualify opportunities, and bring in studio leadership and specialists at the right moment.
• Account‑based marketing: Partner with Marketing on campaigns, events, thought leadership and account‑based initiatives that warm up target accounts.
• Market insight: Develop a point of view on your verticals' challenges and industry trends, and use it to shape outreach and proposals.
