United Kingdom Publicis Groupe UK Full time
  • Full-time
Company Description

Saatchi & Saatchi Wellness is a creative agency operating in the health and wellness space. We work with people we believe in to make work the world can believe in, and we do this by combining the type of interrogative thinking you only find in a high science agency, with the type of brand magic you only find in a creative agency. It’s this unique point of difference that’s helped us achieve fame for both our clients and their brands in everything from aesthetics, supplements, and fertility, to endocrinology, dermatology, and oncology. And the cherry, if you’re looking for one, is that we’re part of Publicis Groupe. So working with us gets you access to all manner of interesting people with an almost limitless depth and breadth of skills and experience.

Job Description

At Saatchi Wellness, we believe in making work that the world can believe in. We combine scientific rigor with creative magic to help professionals in the health and wellness space achieve fame for their brands and themselves. Our agency is guided by four defining principles – curious, creative, discerning, and brave. These values underpin a culture of collaborative entrepreneurialism that drives high-performance.

Who You Are: We're seeking a dynamic individual who is driven by a relentless pursuit of growth and innovation. You are not content with the status quo; rather, you thrive on dreaming, making, doing, and building. With intelligence and finesse, you challenge the norm and push boundaries, all while maintaining respect and empathy for those around you. You reject the notion that rules are absolute, always striving for excellence in every endeavor. If you're someone with a passion for creativity, strategic thinking, and leadership, you might be the perfect fit for us.

The Role: The Senior Account Director role builds upon the responsibilities of an Account Director while incorporating elements of the Associate Director role. This position entails taking ownership of specific accounts and actively seeking solutions to drive team, business, and agency growth.

Responsibilities:

  • Define and own client strategy, manage client relationships, and ensure successful project delivery.
  • Lead client meetings to influence marketing strategy and drive agenda.
  • Drive creative excellence and identify opportunities for account growth.
  • Collaborate with project teams to establish budgets, scopes, and timelines.
  • Oversee revenue forecasting, financial reporting, and budget management.
  • Manage client relationships at all levels and take ownership of issue resolution.
  • Lead continuous improvement initiatives and process management efforts.
  • Provide leadership to direct and virtual teams responsible for client deliverables.
  • Manage GDPR compliance and ensure adherence to data policies.
  • Facilitate clear and timely communication internally and externally.
Qualifications
  • Ability to create a vision and strategy for brands.
  • Experience in delivering change management programs.
  • Excellent relationship management skills across different geographies and organizational levels.
  • Effective people leadership and line management abilities.
  • Strong commercial acumen and financial management experience.
  • Knowledge of marketing principles and integrated communications.
  • Experience in the healthcare and pharmaceutical market.
  • Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills.
  • Ability to identify continuous improvement opportunities.
  • Proficiency in building and maintaining relationships across all levels of an organization.
  • Strong influencing skills with regional and global stakeholders.
  • Experience working with geographically disparate teams across global clients.
