What We're Looking For in the Person

We're looking for someone who is hungry for business, enjoys opening doors and knows how to turn a conversation into a client relationship. You should be equally comfortable walking into a brand's marketing team, understanding what they're trying to achieve and building a solution around it - rather than simply taking a media brief and responding to it. You should have the confidence, network and commercial instinct to create business, not just manage it.
