- Performance Insight: Act as a Performance Marketing Strategist to deliver honest, data-led reporting that clearly explains the "why" behind client data.
- Operational Discipline: Manage project scope, commercial budgets, and timelines with the slick precision of an experienced agency veteran.
What "Great" Looks Like
- Unflappable: You stay highly structured, calm, and supportive even when a client is under pressure.
- Curious: You ask sharp, incisive questions to find the real business problem behind a client request.
- Sector Advocate: You enjoy mastering the unique nuances of the UK childcare market (term-time demand fluctuations, funding cycles, and parent psychology).
Your Experience
- Agency Veteran: 8 to 10+ years of dedicated Client Services or Account Management experience within a marketing agency environment.
- Project Lead: 3+ years of hands-on project coordination and high-level digital brief writing.
- Digital Fluency: Complete comfort with digital marketing funnels, commercial lead generation tracking, and Google Analytics metrics.
- Sector Interest: Direct experience or a keen interest in education, childcare, charities, or local services is a significant advantage.
Why Join Us?
