Red Apple Creative/Advertising Account Manager

The Company

We are an agency with audio at our core.

We work with brands who want to do audio properly and help other agencies who don’t have in-house specialists. We’re also Spotify’s creative partner.

We have our own in-house studios and an amazing team of specialists who work across everything audio:

-Radio and Spotify commercials

-3D audio creative

-Audio media planning and buying (Traditional, Digital and Programmatic)

-Podcasts

-Immersive audio experiences

-Audiobooks

We’re part of the SNK Publishing Group, which includes Red Apple Creative, Red Apple Advertising and SNK Studios,

In the last few years our team has doubled, doubled and then doubled again. We’ve extended our audio facility to 11 studios, including one of the few certified Dolby Atmos suites in central London. And we opened a office in New York so we can expand our offering into new territories.

We’re a mix of arty, geeky, techy, creative types who deliver exceptional products for our clients every single day. We’re continually pushing the boundaries of what’s possible and we always celebrate our successes along the way… we love an excuse for a party!

We’re really proud of what we’ve achieved so far but we’re not stopping there, as we’re now looking for an Account Manager to join us.

Our Culture - Defined By Our Team

We're creative (standard). We're honest and open. A swear jar would bankrupt us all. We're all equal and we laugh at ourselves...and each other.

We're unconventional, productive and we do whatever it takes to get the job done. We like burgers (meat, veggie and vegan).

We always make time for each other and our clients. We live and breathe audio. We're people pleasers. We're all very different and we love that about our team.

We praise each other and recognise achievements. We like going to the pub. We don't quit, we fix. We're kind and caring. We make a difference. We stick together and pick each other up when it's needed.

We like to dance. We say please and thank you. We're passionate and motivated. We always leave our clients feeling good.
