Job description
THE COMPANY:
Our client is a creative brand and packaging design agency, and they’re on the lookout for a talented Mid-Weight Account Manager to join their friendly, collaborative team on a permanent basis.
THE ROLE:
Reporting to the Client Services Director, and working with the Account Director, you’ll bring a strategic mindset and be the go-to link between clients and the creative team, keeping projects on track while ensuring every brief delivers on bigger brand goals. With a mix of brand identity and packaging work, plus the chance to lead smaller strategy projects like positioning, brand audits, and competitor reviews, you’ll balance detail with big-picture thinking to deliver sharp, commercially impactful ideas.
Key Responsibilities
Build strong day-to-day client relationships, earning trust and ensuring projects flow smoothly.
Interpret briefs with a strategic eye, ensuring creative output aligns with brand and business goals.
Manage timelines, budgets, and scope without losing sight of the creative spark.
Work closely with designers, strategists, and directors to produce work that is both beautiful and commercially effective.
Spot opportunities to add value and grow client accounts.
Contribute confidently to brand workshops and strategic sessions.
Lead smaller strategy projects independently, such as brand audits, competitor reviews, and positioning frameworks.
Stay up to date with trends in branding, packaging, and QSR/consumer markets to inspire and inform your work.
YOU:
You’ll ideally have 3–5 years’ experience in account management within a brand, design, or creative agency, along with:
A strategic approach and a clear understanding of how creativity drives business success.
Strong communication skills, able to express ideas clearly, confidently, and persuasively.
Excellent organisational skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects under pressure.
A collaborative mindset, you know how to get the best from a creative team.
A genuine passion for outstanding branding and packaging design.
Bonus points if you’ve worked in the food, beverage, or QSR sector.
If you’re ready for your next exciting agency role, come from a creative agency background, and have hands-on brand and packaging experience, we’d love to hear from you.
