Senior Account Manager
We are YOURS . SINCERELY
We’re a young and rapidly growing communications and marketing agency based in Bristol. We have clients in Bristol, London and beyond across a range of sectors – from the UK’s leading second-hand bookseller to Europe’s biggest lifestyle fashion site. Plus, companies that have grown out of the thriving tech scene at Bristol University, from start-ups to businesses trading globally.
We’re different. We offer our clients a combination of high-level strategic consultancy, coupled with on-the-ground agency delivery. We also bring a unique combination of marketing, communications, commercial and digital understanding. Our clients choose to work with us because of our expertise and experience and stay with us because we work as an extension to their internal team and focus on the deliverables that make the biggest difference to their business (and because of who we are as people and how we work).
What we’re looking for
As we continue to grow, we’re looking for a driven Senior Account Manager who can grow and develop with us. Your role would be to deliver campaigns that span multiple disciplines, working with a wider team of communications and digital marketing experts. If you’re an experienced Account Manager looking to take the next step up, or a Senior Account Manager that’s ready for a change, we’d love to hear from you.
In this role, you’ll be working with clients, responsible for key project deliverables and becoming a central part of our agency team. We’re looking for someone that has sound experience across a broad mix of marketing disciplines, but we understand some areas may be more within your comfort zone than others and we’ll provide training and support where needed. All we ask of you is that you’re hungry to learn.
This role is particularly exciting in that you’ll be working with a great range of interesting businesses and great clients – from businesses that are on a mission to make the world greener, to companies giving young people a voice, to some of the most exciting lifestyle brands in Europe and beyond.
You’ll have:
- Bags of experience working within a marketing agency, or a varied busy in-house marketing role dealing with internal and external stakeholders – we’re talking a proven track record of spinning multiple plates, hitting deadlines and delivering results
- A real comfort working with both consumer and B2B clients and you’ll love getting stuck into highly technical content just as much as a wider news angle
- A demonstrable grasp of marketing strategy – you’ll know the right questions to ask and be able to pull together a strategic recommendation for a client on the back of a brief
- Marketing qualification, or strong understanding of marketing strategy and how to apply it to meet client commercial objectives
- Deep subject matter knowledge across one or more of the following disciplines: content marketing, PR, social, influencer activity and paid
- Great copy writing across a range of mediums, including online content and social
- Knowledge of key social media platforms, in particular LinkedIn, with experience in running pages for businesses and/or senior business leaders
- Proven ability to manage upward and outwards – doing what’s needed to be done to make sure all of your client deliverables are met
- Excellent attention to detail
- A real willingness to learn new skills and a passion for all things marketing
- A drive to be a prolific organiser – we are a busy agency, so the ability to juggle and prioritise is a must
- Experience in growing client relationships, strong project management skills and ability to manage multiple accounts day-to-day
- Commercial understanding and ability to manage budgets
- An honest, straight-talking personality – we make mistakes, celebrate the wins together and acknowledge when things don’t quite go to plan
What we can offer you
Culture is extremely important to us. We love what we do, but we also understand you have a life outside of work. As well as a role that you can truly make your own, in a fast-growing agency, we offer:
- Full personal development plan (backed by a personal training allowance) – time and focus to help develop you as an individual, and to move you along in your career goals
- Flexibility with working from home – we were doing it long before it was cool
- Great working environment - our office is in the heart of Bristol, (easy walking distance from Temple Meads and the city centre) and part of a buzzing community of startups
- Flexible working hours – it’s about getting the job done and not about clocking in
and out - A holiday policy that gives you time to travel – 30 days per year
- Four reset days per year for your mental health and overall wellbeing – for when life throws a curve-ball
- Pensions – Company pension scheme
- The other stuff – all bank holidays off, team away days, maternity / paternity leave and everything else you’d expect
