Account Director x 2 (ATL), Advertising Agency

This fully integrated agency needs no introduction. It has consistently been one of London’s finest since launching 20 years ago.

With a well-earned reputation for challenging not following, it embraces everything from social media or launch campaigns to DM and web build.

Due to account growth the agency is looking for two new Account Directors. One AD will work on a huge UK brand that gets masses of TV exposure and the other will work on an FMCG giant and a top-tier charity.
