13 Sep WANTED: An Account Director

instinct is continuing to grow and so we are looking for a strong Account Director who is hungry for a team leadership role, to manage and grow several of our key accounts. This role offers the opportunity to work on leading consumer brands such as M&S Food, Pernod Ricard UK (including Campo Viejo, Beefeater, Malibu and more), Disney On Ice, Marvel Universe Live and Monster Jam, plus a host of other consumer brands.

ABOUT YOU

You will have a minimum of six years’ agency experience in roles where you have demonstrated your passion for PR and have taken responsibility for both the growth and management of core accounts. You will have developed your inherent ability to be fully responsible for core client relationships, your team and for achieving the KPIs and client growth targets set by the business.

You will thrive on the pressure of a modern and progressive PR agency and will be as proud of your successes as you will be self-analytical of the times when performance was below that anticipated. You will seek assistance and support as willingly as you provide it to your team.

The Essentials:

• Outstanding client services and client growth track record
• Strategic and creative thinker with a true understanding of what makes a great PR campaign
• Personable and approachable people manager with proven team development results
• New business pitch experience and strong win record
