Creative Account Lead

2 weeks ago

Leeds, United Kingdom Arla Foods Full time

**Are you an experienced Creative Account lead that knows the world of shopper like the back of your hand? Are you bursting with ideas of ways we can inspire our consumers in the retail space? If this sounds like you, then you’re the person we want to speak for a leading role in strengthening The Barn’s relationships and collaboration with our brands, all while working with a passionate group of people to deliver world-class creative work?**

The Barn is Arla’s in-house agency. We were created in 2018 to help Arla’s global and local brands win in a world of increasing media complexity. Our growth and success have been tremendous, and today we are delivering full scale campaigns across many Arla brands, such as Anchor Butter, Cravendale, BIG Milk, and B.O.B.

**About the job**

In this role as Senior Account Lead, you will join the team in the UK Barn, and play a central role in building and strengthening our relationship with our brand teams, while collaborating across The Barn to deliver best-in-class shopper campaigns. This means that you’ll work on a daily basis with our brand, and shopper marketing managers, as well as our creative and production team in The Barn.

As the Senior Account Lead, you will take lead across multiple brands within the UK, managing the day-to-day relationship with those brands. You will be a strategic sparring partner collaborating with them on plans and briefs to maximize impact, and working with them from brief to delivery on multiple creative projects throughout the year. On top of that, you will also be responsible for building strong relationships across brands and promoting the Barn with more senior stakeholders in Arla, as well as being part of strategic work to continue to improve our agency processes and deliveries.

**Who are you?**
As a Senior Account Lead, you have strong experience either from the agency side (probably as Senior Account or Client Director) or the client side as Senior Brand or Marketing Manager with extensive experience working with both brand and creative development within the shopper space.

You possess a broad range of core abilities:

- You’re a skilled communicator. Comfortable presenting, comfortable taking conversations on the spot, and with a natural ability to tailor your message to make it engaging for the person you’re talking to
- You don’t sit back and wait for something to happen, you see the opportunities and you make them happen
- You are able to see the big picture, but also are quite comfortable and skilled working in details
- You’re great at taking something complex and distilling it into something simple
- You’re quite comfortable with being uncomfortable, with a willingness to jump into new challenges
- A deep knowledge of digital and shopper strategies
- Strong knowledge of various consumer touchpoints within the shopper environment
- Strong project management skills
- You’re comfortable taking decisions and setting direction for a team

**What do we offer?**

This is your shot at joining an international agency with an entrepreneurial mindset. An agency with full in-house capabilities covering everything from digital media buying/planning, tech/development, creative, strategy and on-site production. Some say The Barn is one of the best places they’ve ever worked. Must be the informal atmosphere. Or the drive. Maybe both. We’ve built the agency ourselves from the bottom up just the way we like it: Human, ambitious and fun.

**Application and contact**

For additional information, please speak to our recruitment team via Patrick Kilbride. The closing date for this role is the 12th of March 2024. Only CVs sent in via the link can be considered.

**We have a purpose for Good**

At Arla, we strive to unlock the highest potential in each other while working together to create a sustainable future of dairy. We call it Stronger People Stronger Planet and it is deeply anchored in our organisation and founded on our commitment to respecting human rights, increasing access to healthy dairy nutrition, inspiring good food habits, and improving the environment for future generations. In order to succeed we need to hire people with a sustainable mindset. Could this be you?
