We’re looking for a confident, enthusiastic and passionate Senior Marketing Account Manager with a minimum of 5 years marketing experience, to help us bring our creative campaigns to life across a range of sectors and disciplines.

Day to day, you’ll be responsible for being the first point of contact for a range of mid-weight clients, ensuring they get the best possible service, as well as planning work into studio, working with the studio team and managing projects end to end, meeting tight deadlines and maintaining our excellent standard of work.

We’re looking for someone who can forge strong relationships, both internally and externally – experience working within a marketing department, a design and marketing agency or in-house as a marketing manager will be a distinct advantage.
