GOOD is a purpose‑driven strategy and creative agency working with brands and charities to build a better world through ideas that create real, measurable impact. We combine sharp strategic thinking with bold, culturally aware creativity to help organisations stand for something meaningful and show up in ways that genuinely make a difference.
Role Summary
We are hiring multiple Account Director roles and are looking for people who can start ASAP. We are open to people who can join us on either a temp to perm basis or in a permanent position, bringing energy, leadership and a solutions first mindset to every brief.
We are looking for a commercially astute account handler who thrives working in close partnership with clients and internal teams. The ideal candidate will take ownership of projects, end to end, keeping work on brief, within the agreed budget and timings. Having a keen eye on the detail, without ever losing sight of the bigger ambition, building and deepening client relationships with satisfaction, earning trust by consistently helping the agency deliver outstanding work.
With a proactive, solutions-first mindset, you relish making things happen. Clients see you as an essential partner; your team sees you as a motivating force. You’re a natural leader, bringing energy and momentum to every project, delivering flawless 101 project handling, offering clarity and guidance to more junior members.
When it comes to new business, you bring that same rigour and passion to pitches of all shapes and sizes, ensuring the agency always shows up at its best and makes every opportunity meaningful.
