£47–60k DOE

Ready to take real ownership of senior client relationships, commercial growth and digital strategy?

We’re working with a growing digital performance agency looking for a commercially sharp, relationship-led Client Director to oversee a portfolio of established clients across performance marketing and digital strategy.

They’re very open to an experienced Account Director who’s ready for that next step — someone who’s already leading senior conversations, spotting growth opportunities and wants broader commercial ownership.

You’ll be the trusted partner for clients, helping them make sense of performance, shape smart digital plans and turn marketing activity into meaningful business impact. You’ll also work closely with specialists across paid media, search, data and digital activation, while supporting and developing a small client services team.

A lovely one for someone who enjoys the balance of strategic client leadership, commercial thinking and enough hands‑on digital knowledge to ask the right questions.

• Leading senior client relationships across a portfolio of retained accounts
• Driving strategic planning, growth conversations and performance reviews
• Translating marketing performance into clear commercial outcomes
• Collaborating with specialist teams across paid, organic and digital channels
• Supporting forecasting, commercial planning and account profitability
• Managing and mentoring junior client services team members
• Supporting pitches, proposals and wider agency growth initiatives
• Spotting opportunities to grow client partnerships and expand services

Experience & Skills

• Strong agency-side client leadership experience
• A background in performance marketing and digital media
• Confidence managing complex stakeholder relationships
• Commercial awareness, including forecasting and scoping
• Experience leading strategic conversations with senior clients
• Experience mentoring or managing team members

Mindset & Approach

• Commercially curious — you can connect marketing performance to business goals
• Collaborative and clear — clients and internal teams know where they stand
• Proactive and solutions-focused — you spot opportunities, not just problems
• Comfortable operating at a senior level, while still close enough to the work to understand what’s really going on

• Join a growing agency with ambitious plans
• Step into a role with genuine progression and strategic influence
• Be part of a collaborative, down-to‑earth culture
• Work across integrated digital campaigns and well-known brands
• Hybrid working and a flexible approach

Sound like the kind of move that gives you a bit more room to lead?

If you’re already a Client Director — brilliant. If you’re an Account Director ready to step up and take on more commercial ownership, this could be a very good next move.
