Let’s build what’s next.
Role Overview:
This is a brilliant opportunity for an ambitious Account Manager to join the team, working on one of the world’s largest petcare businesses and helping to create work that travels across markets, channels and cultures.
We’re looking for someone who loves making great work happen. You’ll be confident in production and comfortable managing projects and workstreams from brief through to delivery, whether that’s part of a larger integrated campaign or a more non-traditional activation. Working closely with your Account Director and the wider creative, strategy, production and project management teams, you’ll help keep projects moving, anticipate what needs to happen next and make sure the work is delivered brilliantly.
A genuine interest in strategy and creativity is really important. We want someone who is curious about the client’s business, consumers and culture; who asks valuable questions of a brief; and who wants to understand not just what we’re making, but why. You’ll be encouraged to bring your own point of view to the work and contribute to strategic and creative conversations as you continue to build your confidence and experience in these areas.
Ideally, you’ll also have some experience working across markets or supporting the development and rollout of global creative toolkits.
You’ll be comfortable coordinating multiple stakeholders and helping ensure markets have the assets, guidance and information they need to successfully deploy work locally.
Most importantly, we’re looking for someone who wants to be part of the team: proactive, collaborative, curious, ambitious for the work and genuinely excited by what we can create together.
Roles & Responsibilities:
- Supporting the Account Director in the day-to-day running of projects, taking ownership of defined workstreams from brief through creative development, production and final delivery.
- Building strong day-to-day relationships with clients and becoming a trusted and reliable point of contact across your projects.
- Keeping projects organized and moving forward, managing timings, actions and deliverables and making sure the right people have the information they need.
- Contributing to briefs and strategic conversations, bringing your own point of view informed by culture, consumers, the competitive landscape and the wider category.
- Supporting the creative development process and championing great ideas, helping to maintain the integrity of the work as it moves through different executions and channels.
- Managing production on defined projects and deliverables, working closely with agency producers, production partners, media owners, influencers and other third parties where relevant.
- Supporting the delivery of larger integrated and 360 campaigns, while taking ownership of specific channels, deliverables or workstreams within them.
- Supporting the development and rollout of global creative toolkits, coordinating assets, feedback and market requirements and helping ensure materials are clear, accurate and easy for local teams to use.
- Working at pace without compromising on craft or attention to detail, maintaining high standards across everything you deliver.
- Managing client feedback clearly and constructively, asking questions where needed and helping the wider team understand the key issues and actions.
- Supporting on the day-to-day commercials of your projects, including estimates, production budgets, WIP and reconciliation, with support from your Account Director and finance team.
- Understanding and managing the processes required to deliver work correctly, including usage, legal and regulatory requirements.
- Working collaboratively across account management, strategy, creative, production, project management and partner agencies.
- Thinking one step ahead, solving problems where you can and knowing when to bring in more senior members of the team.
- Guiding Account Executives on projects, helping to provide clear direction and sharing your experience as you continue to develop your own management skills.
