Company Description
1920 Worldwide Ltd is a London-based growth and marketing services agency with an integrated venture studio, delivering high-impact strategy and activation for global B2B giants like Heineken, Diageo, and UPS.

Job Description
As an execution-led Account Director at 1920 Worldwide Ltd, you will own day-to-day delivery for two major global B2B accounts in the logistics and technology sectors. You will lead complex projects, manage budgets, and coordinate internal teams to ensure high-quality execution that translates integrated marketing strategies into measurable commercial results and brand growth.
Location
London, UK
Why this role is remarkable
- Ownership of high-stakes, global B2B accounts for household names like UPS and Cisco without the layers or handoffs of a traditional large agency environment.
- Unique hybrid model combining a marketing services agency with a venture studio, offering a rare route to equity participation in the ventures we create together.
- A high-autonomy environment where delivery excellence is rewarded with a clear path to senior autonomy and a wider strategic remit as the accounts grow.
What You Will Do
- Own the day-to-day client relationship and operational workflow for two flagship global accounts, ensuring projects move seamlessly from creative idea to conversion.
- Manage end-to-end delivery including planning, budgets, and briefing internal or freelance teams to maintain tight status and consistent momentum across all workstreams.
- Coordinate international sponsorship activations and integrated brand campaigns, including providing necessary cover for US East Coast client hours and occasional evening calls.
The ideal candidate
- Proven integrated agency pedigree from top-tier firms like McCann, BBH, or Ogilvy, with a strong focus on hands‑on delivery rather than just people management.
- Deep B2B marketing experience across technology, logistics, or finance, ideally paired with exposure to sports rights holders and sponsorship activation across international markets.
- A data‑led, commercially‑minded professional who is comfortable holding a room during senior client presentations while remaining obsessive about the granular details of project status.
