The Role:
The Account Executive is a key role on any team at Grey London. We describe them as the backbone of the team and that’s how crucial they are. In this role, you will primarily support our Consumer Healthcare client as part of WPP Team Vitale, working across a portfolio of leading Oral Health brands and helping the team deliver integrated campaigns across multiple markets. We are looking for people who are keen to learn, absorb and get stuck in. If you have a passion for creativity, love working as part of a team and want to start or continue your career in an agency that puts creativity at the heart of everything, then this role is ideal for you. Please note this is a 12-Month FTC.
In Account Leadership, our main principles are:
Creative hunger – we will expect you to be all about the work and help us create the best conditions in which great work will thrive.
Partnership – both internally within your team, the department and the wider agency as well as building strong relationships with our Clients.
Maximum Impact – this is about having the best outcome whilst being most efficient with time or resources. You’ll learn when to pick up the phone and when to email for example – and learn how to get the best out of those around you.
Energy – this is a crucial aspect of the role. Account Leadership can set and change the tone of any meeting. Positivity, a can-do attitude, willingness to lean in and help move things along is all part of every day in this role.
This role is all about keeping our projects moving by supporting on briefs, managing timelines, and maintaining clear client communication. The most successful people in this position are proactive - they don't wait to be asked; they anticipate the team's needs and step up to meet them.
Day-to-day, you’ll be getting involved and leading:
Building relationships with key client contacts
Working with the team to manage small projects from creative briefing through to design and delivery
Supporting the team across briefs, timelines and client communications to help keep integrated campaigns moving across multiple markets
Managing parts of large campaigns, including creative development, production and delivery
Learning to manage budgets, fees and reconciliations
Direct management of interns where
