Senior Marketing Account Manager

We’re partnering with a leading marketing agency based in central Cambridge to find a Senior Account Manager to join their client services team.

This is an opportunity to step into a role where client relationships go beyond delivery. You’ll be working with a mix of established and growing brands, helping shape marketing activity that genuinely drives business performance, not just campaigns for the sake of it.

This agency blends brand, creative and digital thinking to solve complex marketing challenges, so we’re looking for someone who enjoys being close to both the strategic and delivery side of client work.

The Role

You’ll act as the main point of contact across a portfolio of clients, building strong, trusted relationships and ensuring work delivered is both high quality and commercially effective.

• Own and develop key client relationships, acting as a strategic partner
• Lead the delivery of integrated marketing projects across brand, digital and creative
• Translate client briefs into clear internal direction across creative and delivery teams
• Identify opportunities to grow accounts through additional services or new ideas
• Support and contribute to pitches and new business activity
• Work closely with internal teams to ensure projects are delivered on time and to a high standard
• Manage budgets, forecasts and overall account performance

What we’re looking for

• Experience in an agency environment or similar client-facing role
• Strong understanding of the marketing mix, including digital and brand
• Commercial mindset, someone who understands how marketing links to business outcomes
• Confident communicator, able to build relationships and challenge where needed
• Organised and calm under pressure, able to manage multiple projects at once
• Comfortable presenting ideas and leading client conversations
• Experience managing or mentoring more junior team members is a plus

Why apply?

This is a genuinely well-rounded agency role where you’re not just project managing, you’re influencing, shaping and adding value. You’ll be part of a collaborative team that values ideas, curiosity and continuous improvement, working on a varied portfolio that keeps things interesting day to day.

The office itself is a big part of the experience, a central Cambridge space that people genuinely enjoy being in, which makes the three days on site feel worthwhile. There’s no allocated parking, so it’s best suited to someone happy with city centre commuting.

Location

Central Cambridge, with a hybrid split of 3 days in the office and 2 days remote. Easily commutable from places in and around Cambridgeshire like Ely, Newmarket, Saffron Walden, Royston, Huntingdon, St Ives, and Bury St Edmunds.

We are committed to equality, diversity, and inclusion, actively promoting diversity across all minority groups to create workplaces where everyone feels valued, respected, and empowered.
