- Liaising between SMG and our clients and key contacts and supporting the senior team in governance meetings.
- Participating in brainstorms to help create and implement campaigns that will deliver results for our clients.
- Communicating confidently with our clients and presenting yourself as a trusted member of the team, ensuring all work is completed to a high standard.
- Supporting wider organisational projects and helping create a great workplace.

- The ability to think differently and approach problems from a different angle, challenging the status quo.
- Excellent organisational and attention to detail skills.
- An interest in working and growing a career within a marketing agency.
- Great communication skills and relationship-building skills for managing key stakeholders.
P.s. we try really hard to make sure that we list only essential criteria here, BUT if you think you can do an amazing job, yet don't have every single thing on this list, we'd still love to hear from you.
