The Agency
Advertising agency
Mellor&Smith are seeking an Account Manager. The reason for the vacancy is because of new account wins.
We encourage applicants from all genders, backgrounds and disabilities to apply.
We are an independent advertising agency with a reputation for lighting a fire for our clients. By bringing fun, irreverence and a touch of chutzpah into our work and culture. We make our clients famous, so they stand out in a sea-of-sameness. We work remotely and from central London.
Our clients include start-ups, scale-ups and grown-ups. They’re both household names and scrappy wannabes..
We are a small and friendly (pinky promise) core team, with an incredible little black-book of specialists and partners. We work with a dozen or so of these people on a regular basis.
You will be supported by everyone in the core team, particularly our Managing Director with the aim of building an Account Management team with further account wins. We will give you the space to get on with the job at hand, but never assume you know everything from day one. And we’ll ensure you have everything to succeed in the role.
