The Role

The successful Account Director will come from an events, experiential or production agency background, with a strong track record of delivering projects from initial concept through to live execution. You’ll have hands-on experience across a range of live events, including outdoor sporting events, brand activations, fan zones, product launches or public engagement experiences.

Strong client leadership skills are essential for this Account Director role, alongside the ability to confidently interpret briefs, shape ideas and create engaging proposals.
