  • Monitor team and account performance, report on revenue and KPI outcomes, using insights to inform strategy

What We're Looking for

  • 10+ years in account management, partnerships, or media sales - with at least 5 years leading high-performing teams

  • Strong commercial track record: managing retention targets, growing partner relationships, and delivering against growth opportunities

  • Experience in Retail Media, advertising, or media campaign delivery is highly regarded

  • Confident influencing and building relationships with senior stakeholders (often CMO, CCO and similar)

  • Comfortable balancing strategic thinking with hands-on execution

What we Offer

  • Competitive salary + a bonus scheme

  • Hybrid working (3 office/2 home) and flexible hours
