Who are we looking for?
As Client Lead your role is to provide our clients with the best possible service, maximise client happiness, monitor and maximise profitability and manage and direct workflow throughout the business. Alongside the Head of Client Service & GM, you will help to drive efficiency throughout the business while consistently identifying additional revenue streams across all channels for the benefit of your client. This requires significant responsibility from you, a key custodian of Atomic 212° and internally the representative of our client’s business priorities and expectations. You are expected to be an expert across communications strategy and planning and will understand and facilitate best practice implementation delivery so that you are able to guide and direct the team on behalf of Atomic 212°
You will clarify the Client brief and uncover the ‘WHY’ in the brief to then respond with a clear cross channel response to meet the objectives. During this process you will also work closely with planning & trading, strategy, SEO, SEM, programmatic, social, content marketing, and data & analytics. The combination of data and strategy as the two key fundamental components is a concept we call ‘stratalytics’. That is the equal weighting of data-led learnings and human truths to provide critical analysis and action. In order to fulfil this commitment, we have created a new tool to guide us through the process, to analyse and visualise vast amounts of data to provide key learnings. It all comes to life across four key steps: Immerse, Decipher, Enable and Acclimate – a process aptly named IDEA.
