£65,000 – £70,000

n

n

I am delighted to be partnering with a fantastic B2B Integrated Comms Agency who are looking for an experienced strategic individual to join their agency. This is a pivotal role for someone who understands that great communication starts with a deep understanding of the business, its ambitions and the commercial goals it needs to achieve.

n

The successful candidate will be someone who can get under the skin of a business, understand where it wants to go, and then translate those objectives into compelling brand storytelling, communications and strategic programmes that help move the business forward.

n

It’s a senior, highly visible position, working closely with founders and senior client stakeholders. The role will combine strategic thinking, client leadership, commercial understanding and team leadership.

n

n

The agency is entering an exciting phase of growth, with an established client base and a strong track record of delivering strategic, creative and communications work.

n

The new hire will help shape the next stage of that growth — strengthening senior client relationships, elevating strategic thinking and helping clients see communications as a genuine driver of business performance.

n

n

What you will be doing

n

n
• Develop a deep understanding of clients’ business objectives, challenges and ambitions

n

• Translate business goals into clear strategic direction, brand positioning and communications programmes

n

• Act as a trusted strategic adviser to senior and C-suite client stakeholders

n

• Lead strategic conversations and challenge clients constructively when needed

n

• Connect brand, storytelling, content and communications to measurable business outcomes

n

• Identify opportunities to deepen and grow existing client relationships

n

• Play a senior role in new business, pitches and proposals

n

• Help shape the agency’s strategic proposition and approach

n

• Lead and mentor teams, raising the standard of strategic thinking across the agency

n

• Work closely with the founders and wider agency leadership as the business continues to scale

n

n

n

The ideal candidate will have a strong track record in B2B, ideally within an agency, consultancy or similarly strategic environment.

n

They’ll be able to demonstrate:

n

n
• Significant experience developing business-led strategies for clients

n

• A strong understanding of how brand, storytelling and communications can support commercial objectives

n

• Experience working with senior stakeholders and C-suite audiences

n

• A track record of building trusted, long-term client relationships

n

• Strong strategic and commercial instincts

n

• Experience across brand, communications, content and/or strategy

n

• The ability to turn complex business challenges into clear, compelling strategic narratives

n

• Experience developing new business and growing existing accounts

n

• Strong leadership skills and the confidence to influence both clients and internal teams

n

n

n

Above all, this role needs someone who can think beyond communications.

n

Someone who starts with the question: What is the business trying to achieve? — and then works backwards to determine how strategy, brand and communications can help make that happen.

n

Why this role?

n

n

Location: Mostly on-site

n

Salary: £65,000–£70,000

n

⏱️ Working pattern: Full-time, with flexibility around a 4-day week for the right person

n

If you’re a commercially minded strategist with strong B2B experience and a passion for connecting business objectives with brand and communications, I’d love to hear from you.
