Account Manager - Creative, Strategic Fundraising Agency

You will be working with some of the UK's largest and most popular charities, project managing the design, strategy and delivery of some their most important fundraising and awareness campaigns.

Working as part of a team of Account Managers, you will work closely on the strategic development and creative process, feeding ideas into how they communicate to the public about some of society's biggest challenges.

You will be the day-to-day contact for each of your clients, ensuring that the work for them is delivered to the highest standards, on time and to budget. You will also liaise with the client to ensure that the agency fully understands their needs. You will be entrepreneurial in spirit as each project is like a business within a business. You will be responsible for setting budgets, resource planning, co-ordinating suppliers (both internal and external), drafting creative briefs and all other parts of the process which produce the best results possible.

You will keep up-to-date with all the latest technologies and sector innovations to ensure they are offering their clients the best solutions available. You will get to know the charity sector inside out and you will learn a lot about how not-for-profit organisations work to tackle such important issues.

Ultimately you will be doing good with your work.

Why work at this company?

Their mission is to double the amount of money donated to charity in the UK from the current 0% of GDP. They do this by working with more than half of the UK's top 20 charities to maximise the income from their fundraising campaigns.

They are a sector-leading creative and strategic agency. They are the agency behind some of the UK's biggest ever fundraising campaigns.

They are fearless and they are bold in their approach. They have big ideas and they execute them with commercial savvy, always keeping focus on theirs and their clients' mission.

What's it like at this company?

They are based in Brighton which has to be the most fun city in the UK (surely?). They are a short walk from Brighton Station and a short walk from the beach. There are literally hundreds of places within walking distance for lunch but if you like to bring your own they have a fully equipped kitchen.

They are a sociable bunch and often convene in the pub over the road after work. They work hard and sometimes there is a lot on - such is the nature of agency life - but they try to finish on time as much as possible. And even if they have a long hard day, they know they have been pushing an important cause forward. So it's ok. They support each other. Every member of staff has a progression and development plan. They operate flexible working.

Who are you?
You have excellent agency experience as an Account Manager. You're self-motivating and you can work without supervision; but you're not afraid to ask for help and to use the resources you have available to you. You work well in a team. You are enthused by good causes. You like people. You get the job done.
