We work solely for brands, and we are rights-holder agnostic, meaning that we won’t compromise on driving the best results and ROI for our clients through their sport and entertainment partnerships.


We are a close-knit, collaborative team with a unique and vibrant culture. Clients value our creativity, our innovative thinking and our strategic, insight-based approach to every challenge. With our HQ in London with offices in other key worldwide locations, we are proud to be a WPP Group agency.


This role provides an exciting opportunity to join a large WPP agency team managing global activation and content for a major F1 team partner brand.


We’re looking for a driven Senior Account Manager to play a lead role in liaising with the F1 team, other WPP agencies, our client’s global brand team and our client’s central partnership team, as we work to support them in delivering their partnership activation plans with best-in-class project management.

  • Take the lead in working closely with the brand team, regional/end market clients and relevant internal teams to ensure all activation plans are proactively delivered to a high standard with full approval of the F1 team and internal client stakeholders as required
  • Manage, influence, and maintain a productive partnership with the core client, their regions and end markets.
  • Work across multiple projects with seamless efficiency
  • Develop and maintain a strong working relationship with the F1 team to foster a collective culture of creativity, problem solving and positivity
  • Possess outstanding project management skills and a high level of organisation
  • Coordinating and collaborating with cross-discipline team members to make sure that all parties are on track with project requirements, deadlines, and schedules
  • Support the Account Director with regular client and F1 team reporting
  • Expand our current business relationships by identifying and securing growth opportunities as part of the dedicated projects and across the wider business
  • Maintain an awareness of best practice in sponsorship activation in order to fully maximise the potential of market activation plans


Key Requirements:


  • Appropriate years of account management experience, preferably working within F1 or with another major sports sponsor on a global basis
  • Experience in working to tight deadlines as well as successfully managing complex client finance, briefs and proposals
  • Extensive experience of managing complex and creative content projects
  • Proven ability to juggle multiple work streams, stakeholders and projects with a flexible attitude
  • International mindset with the ability to operate in global regions seamlessly when required
  • Confident communicator with experience of successfully managing client expectations
  • Enthusiasm, energy and an innovative approach to the role
  • Agile mindset and ability to pivot as project requirements change
  • Resilient and forward thinking in nature
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills with impeccable attention to detail
  • Collaborative team player with a positive attitude and ability to lead and inspire a team
  • Entrepreneurial attitude with a desire to grow both personally and professionally as the role requires
  • Demonstrate the ability to generate creative ideas that make our current and prospective clients sit up and notice
  • Line management experience
  • A willingness to travel both inside and outside of the UK as may be required from time to time
  • Ability to write and speak a leading foreign language, whilst not essential, would be beneficial
  • A passion for entertainment, culture, and sport is highly sought after


In addition to the day-to-day, this role offers the opportunity to become a part of an ambitious and hardworking team with a passionate, nurturing and trusting culture. We provide competitive benefits, a flexible working model and initiatives that support your career and wellbeing and enable creativity to flourish
