HR Partner to creative agencies including Brandon Design Consultants, Workhouse Marketing and Syn Marketing
Brandon - an award winning independent branding and design agency - are looking for a new Account Director with a love of FMCG brands to join our Manchester Team.
WHY BRANDON?
We believe in helping everyone to awaken their potential. And that starts with our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. With equitable employment practices and a culture built around community and belonging — we help talented people do great things.
THE ROLE
As an Account Director based in our Manchester studio, your role will be to build and nurture relationships with key clients, strategically providing direction, innovation and creative thinking to activate their brands through the delivery of world-class design programmes.
