| Description: | This incredible branding & digital agency has got the balance just right - great ethics & values, been around the block a few times, and is run by people who understand how to treat & get the best out of others. Plus, a wonderful mix of B2B & B2C brands that will add significant value to your career. It's where sharp thinking meets big imagination & they work with ambitious businesses around the world who want more than a new logo - they want a story, a spark, a shift & they help them get there with strategy, narrative and design that actually moves the needle. The action We're looking for an account handler who brings structure without killing creativity, clarity without dampening ideas, and a level of client care that feels more like partnership than process. Someone who can keep a project steady while still being energised by the messy, magical parts of bringing a brand to life. The work they produce is seriously good & you'll guide clients through every stage of their brand journey - launching something from scratch, reigniting something established, or helping a business break into its next phase of growth. You'll be the person who knows exactly what's happening, why it's happening, and how to bring everyone along for the ride. Strategy, story, design, identity, activation - you'll touch it all, shaping the work, pushing thinking forward and making sure brilliant ideas actually come to life. What we're after We're looking for someone with a few solid years (3-4) in a branding or creative agency & someone who understands identity and strategy, and is calm, curious, loves what they do and low-drama. Someone who cares about doing great work and helping ambitious businesses grow and who enjoys working closely with leadership teams that expect the same. You'll know how to ask good questions, challenge when something feels off, bring direction when teams need aligning, and make sure the finished work doesn't just look good but lands with commercial impact. In short, you'll translate creative thinking into clear action, keep teams in sync and keep projects tight, even when everything is moving fast. What's on offer Up to £35,000, based in the heart of Manchester with the occasional London drop-in, working hybrid, supported with proper kit, solid holiday allowance and a clear path to step up into Senior Account Manager. In addition to somewhere that's not too big so you won't have a voice, or too small, so there's limited room to move up - it's just got that perfect balance. There are people from all different background & if you're the type that's happy to get stuck in, it's the right home. They've been building an amazing reputation as well as building an internal culture that has solid ethics & values, and a big reason why people rarely move. | |
