Account Manager - top creative agency in Manchester

Our client is recognised as one of the top creative agencies in Manchester.  They don't fit into any boxes and they deliver innovative creative marketing campaigns for a range of clients who are predominantly in the sports, lifestyle and e-gaming sectors.  Following an exceptional year in 2020, they are growing and we're currently looking for an Account Manager to join the team.   To be considered for the role, we're looking for an Account Manager who has a strong track record working in creative agencies. We're looking for someone who has superb project management skills - this is very much a role about delivery of campaigns so we are looking for core skills encompassing superb organisation skills, attention to detail, multi-tasking, working well at pace and being able to manage client expectations.  We're looking for someone who is articulate and confident managing client relationships  - several of the clients are based in the US and you'll need to hold your own with strong personalities.   As Account Manager you'll work on a wide variety of campaigns across multiple channels.  The agency is doing an increasing amount of digital marketing so we're looking for experience of and an awareness of this - particularly in social media and influencer marketing.  That said, it's the core skills of account management that we are most interested in and someone who is interested in brands and how brands communicate with their audiences.  An interest in sport will mean you will really enjoy working here but it isn't essential.      Roles here don't come along very often so if you're interested in finding out more, please get in touch with Fiona Christian ASAP.
