As an Account Manager at iNHouse you will be critical to the day-to-day delivery of client activity and the central point of contact for project management for clients and teams. You will be “air traffic control” on our accounts, making sure that projects are progressing in the right way, that everyone in the team knows their role and what is needed from them, and that they are delivering their input on time. Working across a variety of accounts, you'll be able to both grip the now and think about the next, managing client programmes with a 3 to 6+ month view.

Your responsibilities will be:

  • Leading the day-to-day management of a portfolio of accounts (typically 3-6 clients), liaising with the senior team appropriately, ensuring excellent client management and smooth running of campaigns;
  • Playing a key role in shaping client activity plans, taking ownership of the implementation of creative public affairs and political communications programmes;
  • Anticipating clients’ needs and potential issues, bringing a solution-oriented approach to your work, with senior team members support when needed;
  • Building strong, trusted relationships with clients and deputising for the SAM or Account Director when required;
  • Delivering high quality work on accounts, reviewing the work of junior team members and coaching them to produce excellent client-ready work first time.

This is the job for you if:

  • You have good project management skills, and are able to break activities into critical elements and milestones and develop detailed, realistic timelines with the relevant supporting project reporting and oversight;
  • You are a team player and enjoy variety and pace, and are adept at juggling competing priorities to tight timescales;
  • Have excellent written skills and enjoy devising creative campaigns;
  • You have a strong understanding of politics and policy development across Government departments, the Opposition and relevant UK political institutions and enjoy building your network;
  • Are a Senior Account Executive (or equivalent) looking to take the next step in your career, or a current Account Manager looking for a change of agency.

We're particularly looking for:

Solid agency experience, or experience within another client service environment.

What you don't need:

A degree or a traditional educational background.
