Job Description

Account Manager – McCann London

Hybrid role with 3 days in our Bishopsgate Office

A bit about the agency

We are 150 people dedicated to telling the truth and telling it well, because we believe when a truth is told well things change for the better. Fuelled by an obsession with truth and the richness of a connected network, our work lives on the edge of mainstream culture, building enduring brands, growing businesses and giving our people a platform to grow.

We’ve delivered joy with a little help from Snoop Dog, Katy Perry and Xtina and Latto for ‘Did Somebody Say Just Eat’, helped L’Oréal show people ‘They’re Worth It’, given everyone the right to access great quality food most notably with Kevin the Carrot for Aldi, and put a ‘Priceless’ tag on Mastercard, to name a few.

A Bit About The Role

We're looking for a brilliant Account Manager to join one of our best known brand platforms and most awarded accounts. This is a fully integrated role working across a wide range of channels and you'll be helping to deliver bold, culturally resonant campaigns that span everything from social and digital to experiential and broadcast.

You'll be joining a high-performing team on a flagship client in the financial services sector – a leading consumer-focused brand that's central to our agency's growth. This is a long-term, settled partnership where we're looking to build a dedicated Account Management presence. We've recently expanded our remit on the account, and need someone who thrives in fast-paced environments, loves big ideas, and can confidently manage complex campaign delivery across multiple touchpoints.

Specifically, Duties Will Include

• Supporting the day-to-day running of integrated campaigns across all channels, with a strong emphasis on video and TV production
• Managing timelines, budgets, and client communications with precision and professionalism
• Collaborating with creative, strategy, and production teams to bring ideas to life
• Owning the full spectrum of account management – from sitting in on creative briefings to handling administrative tasks that keep the relationship running smoothly
• Leading status meetings and ensuring all stakeholders are aligned
• Overseeing asset development and delivery across digital, social, OOH and broadcast
• Building trusted relationships with clients and internal teams – this is a client that values continuity and partnership
• Proactively identifying opportunities to add value and drive creative excellence

A Bit About You & Your Previous Experience

• Proven experience as an Account Manager or Senior Account Executive in a creative agency environment
• Strong understanding of integrated 360 campaigns, with hands-on experience in video and TV production
• Confident managing multiple workstreams and stakeholders
• Excellent communication and organisational skills
• A passion for creativity and culture, with a sharp eye for detail
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, collaborative environment

Whether you're a Senior Account Executive ready to step up into a more autonomous role, or someone who's recently started their Account Management career and is ready to settle with a major brand, we want to hear from you.
