Key Responsibilities:

  • Client Management & Development: Take the lead in managing and nurturing relationships with existing clients, ensuring a seamless transition and continuity in project delivery.
  • Business Development: Collaborate closely with the Directors of the other studio to identify new business opportunities through their existing client relationships, and contribute to the growth of the firm.

  • Proven experience in the education sector, with a strong portfolio of school projects.
  • Demonstrated client-facing skills and business development acumen.
  • A valid driving license (DVLA) and access to a car are essential for this role, given the location and travel requirements.

If you are a proactive and ambitious Associate ready to take your career to the next level, we would love to hear from you. Join our client's team and play a crucial role in the next chapter of their success story.
