About the Group:

The Specialist Works, part of What's Possible Group, is an independent media and marketing services agency. With an evidence-based approach, we provide media planning and buying, data science, brand partnerships, and creative solutions.

Our independence gives us the freedom to keep challenging the status quo to achieve even better results. Everything we do – from the people we hire to the tools we build – is about future-proofing our clients. Our capabilities have been built and shaped by their needs.

The Client Team is the epicentre of the agency’s client relationships. We consult, strategically support, innovate, and create communication solutions to their business challenges, enabling them to navigate the full range of services we provide across TSW and the wider What's Possible Group.

You’ll be responsible for both the gross billings/GP (Gross Profit) coming into the agency and the profitability and efficient running of your accounts, reporting on both to the board of directors. You’ll be a leader within and an ambassador for TSW for both the retention of existing and winning of new business.

You will be pivotal in setting the agency agenda and surfacing key priorities and will be involved in leading key agency-wide workstreams.
