Senior Account Manager / Junior Account Director

We’re working with one of Manchester’s largest integrated agencies who are looking for a Senior Account Manager / Junior Account Director to work with a number of public sector clients.

Our Client

The Role

You’ll be the day-to-day client lead on their work with the Public Sector and reporting in to a Senior Account Director. This is retained client work and you’ll play a key role on work coming into the agency, working closely with a number of different public sector clients to plan campaigns and projects, preparing creative, digital and studio briefs. You’ll proactively build client relationships, looking for opportunities to assist their business by introducing additional agency services. There will be regular travel to client offices in London.

You
