You’ll be managing every aspect of the project inside and outside of The Clearing with the support of the Senior Client Management team, reassuring clients, helping them to fall in love with the business & keep coming back for more

 

 

The role
  • Managing the day-to-day client relationship of a few small / medium sized clients (c.£50k) with support from our Client Partnerships Director & Account Director – making sure the experience is an excellent one for all involved

  • Contributing to the company culture

What else:

As a team, we all commit our time and talents to protecting and improving our community, local environment and the planet – whether that’s supporting our chosen local charity for the year, rolling up our sleeves and doing a Thames foreshore clear up, or mentoring the creatives of tomorrow – and it’s really important to us that anyone joining the studio wants to pitch in too. We’re always looking for more opportunities that we can get involved in, so if there’s a particular social or environmental cause that you’re passionate about, we’d love to hear more about it!

Your Experience
  • Graduate calibre

  • Someone who’s accurate, and has an eye for detail
  • Efficient and extremely organised
  • Able to multi-task, prioritise and manage workload under pressure to meet deadlines
  • A natural communicator – good writer and strong presenter
  • A good listener & emotionally intelligent
  • Team player

  • Passion for the subject / fluent in branding theory
  • Experienced with Excel, PowerPoint and Word

A more diverse industry is a more creative one, and we’re committed to creating an inclusive studio environment, where everyone feels supported and appreciated for who they are and what they bring to our agency.
