Not many agency leadership role comes with the chance to genuinely shape the future and be a part\-owner… but this one does.
We're working exclusively with an award\-winning brand design and digital agency that's spent the last decade building an enviable reputation for creative work, strong client relationships and sustainable growth. They've built a brilliant team, a loyal client base and a business that's profitable, stable and respected.
Now they're looking for someone to help take it to the next level.
This is a rare opportunity for a commercially\-minded agency professional to join a small, ambitious team and play a major role in shaping the future of the business. You'll lead growth, help steer commercial decisions and, over time, have the opportunity to become a genuine partner in the agency.
If you've ever looked at agencies and thought, "I'd love the opportunity to build something of my own one day" but haven’t been able to get started for one reason or another, this could be a perfect way of getting that plan going.
What You'll Be Doing
✔ Driving agency growth through new business activity, networking and relationship building
✔ Identifying opportunities across existing and new sectors, particularly B2B, industrial and commercial markets
✔ Building and nurturing a strong pipeline of prospective clients
✔ Leading pitches, proposals and commercial conversations
✔ Working closely with the founder to shape business strategy and growth plans
✔ Helping develop the agency's positioning, proposition and market presence
✔ Supporting wider business operations as the agency grows and evolves
✔ Playing an active role in the long\-term leadership and direction of the business
