This is a senior leadership role for someone who can manage both people and brands — ensuring our retainer clients receive consistently strong work while actively identifying opportunities to make those brands more relevant, visible and culturally interesting.

THE ROLE1. Branded Content & Client Leadership

- Own and oversee key retainer accounts across strategy, content and execution.
- Build strong, long-term client relationships and act as a senior point of contact.
- Ensure scopes, priorities, timelines and deliverables are managed effectively.
- Identify challenges early and proactively drive solutions rather than simply responding to briefs.

2. Marketing & Growth Opportunities

- Proactively identify marketing opportunities for clients beyond their existing content calendars and briefs.
- Develop ideas across campaigns, collaborations, partnerships, activations, launches, cultural moments and new content opportunities.
- Understand each client’s larger business and marketing objectives and translate them into actionable ideas.
- Regularly bring clients fresh thinking that strengthens relevance, visibility and brand growth.
- Identify opportunities to expand existing relationships and scopes where Bard & Butter can create additional value.

3. Team Leadership & Development

- Lead, manage and mentor the Branded Content team,



establishing explicit ownership and accountability.
- Guide the team across planning, client management, execution and problem-solving.
- Identify skill gaps and actively improve individual and team capabilities.
- Support hiring, onboarding and team structure as the function grows.

4. Creative & Execution Oversight

- Maintain a consistently high standard across all branded content output.
- Review key creative, strategic and client-facing deliverables before they go out.
- Push work beyond simply completing deliverables — ensuring it is relevant, considered and distinctive to the brand.
- Work closely with Strategy, Production, Design and Post-Production to ensure seamless execution.

5. Systems & Operations

- Build and improve systems for client servicing, approvals, planning and delivery.
- Ensure clear communication and accountability across teams.
- Identify operational gaps and create processes that allow the function to scale without compromising quality.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FORSomeone who can move comfortably between leading a team, managing a client, interrogating a strategy and spotting the next big opportunity for a brand. You should have strong creative and commercial instincts, excellent client management skills, high standards for execution, and the ability to turn ideas into action.

Most importantly, we’re looking for someone who doesn’t wait for the brief.

The role is not just to service brands. It is to continuously find ways to move them forward.
