Reporting into the Head of Client Delivery, this role is one of the key client-facing roles in the business.

You’ll have Account Management experience, so you’ll be well-versed in managing client projects and growing accounts. You’ll be someone with an interest in technology and ideally have experience of using Content Management Systems, such as Wordpress or Kentico.

This role would be well-suited to someone well-organised and who enjoys being part of a team focused on solving problems for our clients. You’ll be a great communicator who can understand and unpick client requirements and turn those into briefs for designers and developers.

You’ll thrive in a busy environment and enjoy working across different clients in different sectors. No two projects (or two days!) will be the same and you’ll be someone who enjoys that variety in a role.
