Apply for the PR / Creative / Media / Marketing Agency New Business Growth and Partnerships Manager
Location: London
Job Description:

PLEASE DO NOT APPLY UNLESS YOU HAVE WORKED IN THE COMMUNICATIONS SPACE AT AN AGENCY (DIGITAL, MEDIA, CREATIVE, ADVERTISING, MARKETING, PR, SOCIAL, INFLUENCER)

NB. The Agency is a progressive agency operating a 4 day week.

The Role

This is a new business growth role.

You will drive enterprise revenue, secure high-value partnerships, and strengthen our client’s position as a category leader in influencer marketing.

While the title is flexible, this is effectively an Agency New Business Lead profile — someone who thrives on building pipeline, opening doors, and converting opportunity into long-term commercial partnerships.

Core Responsibilities;

New Business Growth (Primary Focus)

  • Proactively targeting and securing blue-chip and enterprise brands
  • Building and owning a structured outbound engine (LinkedIn, email, events, networking)
  • Leading discovery sessions, briefings, and pitch presentations
  • Owning the full sales cycle from first conversation through to conversion
  • Generating new relationships through industry events and roundtables
  • Converting inbound interest through strong qualification and follow-through

Expanding Existing Partnerships

  • Identifying upsell and cross-sell opportunities within current accounts
  • Evolving one-off campaigns into long-term strategic partnerships
  • Maintaining senior stakeholder visibility to protect and grow revenue
  • Ideate strategies to drive new business opportunities where a client has a multi-brand portfolio

Process & Collaboration

  • Maintaining strong CRM discipline and pipeline hygiene
  • Ensuring seamless sales-to-account handovers
  • Working closely with marketing to align positioning, content, and events with growth strategy
  • Supporting development of best practice, tools, and reporting frameworks

Who This Role Is For

A commercially sharp operator with a genuine hunter mentality.

You will likely come from a media, digital, PR, social, or influencer agency environment. Influencer experience is helpful but not essential — the critical factor is your ability to build and convert senior-level relationships.

You bring:

  • A strong growth mindset and ownership mentality
  • A credible network (“black book”) of brand and/or agency contacts
  • Confidence leading enterprise-level commercial conversations
  • Experience owning the full new business lifecycle
  • Structured pipeline management and CRM discipline
  • The ability to turn complex ideas into compelling commercial propositions
  • You are proactive, calm under pressure, structured in approach, and commercially driven.

What This Role Is Not

  • Surface-level enthusiasm without delivery
  • Big energy without process
  • Creative flair without conversion
  • Style over substance

This is a revenue-owning, relationship-building role with real accountability.

Why Join Our Client?

You’ll be joining a scaling, progressive agency combining creativity, data, and technology to reshape how brands think about influencer marketing, all within a genuinely modern four-day working week model.

The package includes:

  • Competitive base salary
  • Performance incentives
  • Learning and development budget
  • Investment in tools and technology
  • Clear progression as they scale
  • Autonomy and meaningful influence over growth strategy
