Account Director - transport, energy, climate & sustainability

My client is possibly the fastest growing consultancy in the corporate comms industry, boasting an impressive haul of award winds in recent years. It has successfully married the qualities and creative campaigning skills of the industry's leading larger agencies with a highly respected corporate reputation, financial PR and public affairs business. 

It is looking for a corporate comms Account Director with experience working in the transport, energy and/or broader infrastructure sectors. Experience of working on climate and sustainability briefs would be of particular interest. 

The successful candidate will already be working as an Account Director in an agency or at a similar level in-house. If the latter, their preference would be to see previous agency experience. 

You will be adept at managing relationships with clients and their communications teams, helping to grow their client work, and developing junior colleagues. You should be equally comfortable running content campaigns, handling reputational issues, dealing with senior journalists, and sustaining day-to-day momentum on large, complex accounts.
