Account Executive in Bristol

Account Executive

Bristol, England, United Kingdom, McCann Synergy, Full time

McCann Synergy is one of the UK’s leading specialist employee engagement consultancies. We believe in the power of people and ambitious brands trust us to help drive their people performance; to delight customers, transform cultures and create change. We’re growing and ambitious, with a client list full of brands your mum’s heard of, and we’re looking to get even bigger, and that’s where you come in.

The role:

We are looking for an Account Executive with a good understanding of what makes an eye-catching internal communications campaign, who’s keen to learn, wants to get stuck-in and who’s itching to work on an array of awesome clients like Sky, NatWest Group, Reckitt, Admiral and more... Ideally, you’ll have worked in an agency environment before, but if not, your attitude and approach will be what really makes you stand out. That, and buckets of enthusiasm for developing a career in internal communication, employee engagement and/or marketing.

Come and join us and you’ll be part of a team of passionate consultants, creatives, strategists, and project managers from a wide mix of backgrounds. We’re spread across two offices in Bristol and London but there’s a lot that unites us – like caring deeply about each other, our clients and everything we do.
