Account Director - Financial PR Agency

Salary £38,000 - £55,000 competitive
Job Type: Permanent
Location London - Central

Added: 22 Feb 2012
Ref: J4298

This is an outstanding opportunity for either an established Senior Account Manager ready to take the next step up or an Account Director who doesn’t want to get lost in the crowd.

Our client is a very successful agency that takes a very different approach to corporate financial PR; they are creative, work with a very honest and open culture and believe very much in a work life balance.

Reporting to the Director and working alongside another Account Director you will be leading the business in a time of expansion – your role will be heavily involved with driving new business and proactively identifying new areas for business growth. At the same time you will know how to manage the strong relationships this agency has with their existing clientele.

The ideal candidate will have second to none industry contacts and be someone with a great understanding of financial services, but with the ambition and scope to put some originality into their campaigns.

You will be current and up to date with market trends, competitors and understand social media and how it can impact your clients.

Clients include investment banks, wealth managers, brokers and financial services companies.

The agency is integrated, they have design, digital, reporting and marketing divisions, meaning a full service can be given in-house and input can be made across sectors.

The PR team is small, close knit, growing and you will be responsible to help support and mentor two Senior Account Executives.

This is why they need a special kind of character, someone who can really feel passionate about the agency, buys into their ethos and wants to contribute to the successful growth of the company.

You could be from a large corporate PR agency or you could have had a strong background at a smaller agency, as long as you have worked with financial clients at a corporate level, we’d be keen to hear from you.

If this role is not quite right for you send it onto a friend and you could be eligible for our referral scheme.

PLEASE NOTE: Due to the volume of applications we receive we are unable to respond to unsuccessful candidates. If you have not heard from us within 3 days of sending your CV, unfortunately you have not been selected for the position
