We’re on the lookout for our next Brand Catalyst; someone who is energetic, naturally organised and great at building relationships.

About the role
As a Trainee Account Executive, you’ll be right at the heart of the action, supporting our client services team based in our impressive Albion Mills studio.

From organising project workflows to building strong relationships with clients and internal teams, you’ll learn the ropes while contributing to the success of some incredible projects.

This role is all about learning and growing. We don’t expect you to know everything from day one — you’ll get all the training and support you need to succeed. With every project, you’ll build your confidence, develop your expertise, and play an integral role in helping us deliver an exceptional customer experience.

•    Adaptable and flexible – thrives in a fast-paced environment, with the ability to adjust to changing project priorities and demands with ease.

Experience
While no direct account management experience is required, we’re looking for someone who:
•    Demonstrates enthusiasm and a passion for building relationships and delivering great work.
•    Shows evidence of strong organisational skills and attention to detail, whether through work, education, or extracurricular activities.

•    Is motivated, self-starting, and eager to make a real impact in their first role.
