About the Role
FOX Managed Solutions is looking for an experienced Client Services professional to join our team as either an Account Manager or Account Director, depending on the successful applicant’s level of knowledge, experience, and capability.
This is a hands-on, fast-paced role supporting major Direct Mail and Print clients across the UK and internationally.

We are seeking someone with strong experience in Direct Mail, Print Manufacturing, Fulfilment, and ISO-governed operational environments. If you thrive on detail, enjoy managing multiple projects simultaneously, and are confident communicating with both clients and internal production teams, this role is for you.

Client & Project Management
* Manage day-to-day client relationships, ensuring clear communication, accuracy, and alignment with expectations.
* Oversee end-to-end delivery of print, DM, fulfilment, and distribution projects.

* Work closely with Production & Operations, Commercial & IT, Data, Studio, and external partners.
Quality, Compliance & Documentation
* Maintain ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 27001 standards across all project workflows.
* Ensure all FSC Chain-of-Custody documentation and artwork claims are correct.
* Support audit readiness through accurate records, version control, and secure data handling.
Estimating, Commercial & Invoicing
* Prepare quotations and ensure project costs and margins are correct.
* Raise accurate invoices within the required timeframe.
* Liaise with suppliers, postal providers, and internal teams to validate costs and lead times.
Delivering World-Class Service
* Proactively resolve issues and anticipate client needs.
* Maintain strong communication between clients and internal teams.
* Support FOX’s “ALL IN” culture by assisting colleagues when needed.
