Role

Drive annual business planning, forecasting, and pricing strategy in partnership with senior leadership.

Build deep, long-term relationships with CXOs, CMOs, and senior marketing leaders.
Lead high-stakes strategic conversations, retainership renewals, and commercial negotiations.

Own the quality, effectiveness, and performance of all content and campaigns delivered under your purview.
Ensure brand objectives, platform KPIs, and business outcomes are clearly defined and met.
Set standards for creative excellence, strategic rigour, and consistency across accounts.
Hold teams accountable for results, not just output.
Scalable Growth & Systems Thinking
Enable the agency to scale output without chaos by building robust systems, frameworks, and governance models.
Improve utilisation, capacity planning, and cross-functional efficiency at a leadership level.
Ensure delivery models support growth without eroding margins or quality.
Champion clarity, speed, and decisiveness across teams.
New Business & Market Expansion
Own and lead new business acquisition , from opportunity identification to pitch leadership.
Evaluate categories, industries, and growth opportunities aligned with the agency's strengths.
Build strong industry relationships that create inbound opportunities over time.
Ensure new wins are strategically sound, profitable, and scalable.
Leadership & Talent Development
Build, mentor, and retain senior account leadership across the agency.
Create a strong leadership bench capable of running businesses, not just accounts.

Shape culture through clarity, ownership, and high standards.
Governance & Accountability
Review and present quarterly business performance to senior management.
Own risk identification, course correction, and decision-making speed.
This is a no delegate-upwards role — you are the final line of defence.
Outcomes matter more than intent. Learn fast, fix faster.
Requirements
15+ years of experience across Marketing, Brand Management, Digital, or Advertising, with clear exposure to business and revenue ownership.
Proven experience managing large client portfolios with P&L responsibility .
Demonstrated ability to drive business growth while protecting margins.
Strong understanding of platform-native content, especially You Tube and Instagram, from a performance and business lens.
Experience working directly with senior client leadership, including CMOs and CXOs.
