Job description

The Company

Delivering remarkable results across design and branding projects is what this global creative agency is all about.

What’s on Offer?

• £80,000 – £95,000
• Hybrid working (2 days WFH)
• Flexible working hours
• Bonus & commission schemes
• Great culture & work environment
• Supportive & collaborative team

The Position

Taking the lead on strategy across key accounts, you’ll look to grow the offerings from the ground up, elevating and connecting strategy to design, business and culture, setting the standard for strategic excellence at every level and shaping how work comes to life.

You’ll guide teams and refine processes by crafting a clear vision for each client’s journey to greatness, presenting ideas and guiding influence by communicating in a compelling and well-considered way.

Always looking to encourage and nurture the team around you, you’ll definitely strive to evolve ways of working and thinking – your eye always on the lookout for ways to improve and develop not only the work being crafted, but the culture that crafts it, too.

What We’re Looking For

• A hands-on and insight-driven leader, you’ll work in a collaborative and proactive way to take ownership of your role and to help improve the studio, too. You’ll think clearly and move purposefully, with the confidence to challenge assumptions and elevate ideas.
• An expert in the design and brand world, you’ll have led complex projects for both global and national brands, able to push boundaries and bring structure to ambiguity, and energy to complexity.
• Most importantly, you’ll be an optimistic worker with a distinct point of view, someone who definitely knows the power a great brand can have and sees that everything has potential, a trait that is perfectly paired with your eagle eye for detail.
