About the role
Day to day and skills
Relationships
We build great relationships by providing honest and genuine good service for our clients. You will know them and engage on a level that feels comfortable for both sides of the partnership so new clients are won over and existing clients trust our expertise.
Vision
Spotting opportunities to build closer bonds, do better work and further our mission to green the internet by identifying needs and speaking to the right specialists in our team to make them a reality.
Communication
We are a fast paced team and so the ability to manage multiple conversations and calmly keep communications strong is really important.
New Business
Either seeing a need yourself or being passed something by one of our Project Managers, you will be comfortable to pick up the conversation and gather the clients needs, helping them shape a brief and then executing our plan to answer it.
Financial
There will be financial tracking and invoicing to look after.
Innovation
Ideas are always welcome. You will get to know our clients’ business and their sector to a point where you can identify parallels and bring some new thinking on how we can meet their needs.
Culture
Our team is encouraged to bring their complete selves to work and this means being part of a culture of acceptance.
Future growth
We are all human and that means being flexible to explore career paths and future skills. Our structure is devised to encourage this without being capped by other members of the team.
You will have the opportunity to take ownership of not only client accounts but also internal projects or processes that will provide learning and growth.
The usual training courses, seminars and conferences are also available.
Who you will work with
Clients
Our clients sit firmly within the purpose driven space and we have a robust ethical screening process to ensure we are aligned. This could be in any sector from charity through to commercial but they all share our values and want to improve the lives of people and lessen the impact we are having on the planet.
Team
Sitting as a core part of the client success team and reporting directly into the Client Success Director, you will be working across the wider Wholegrain team and expected to forge strong working relationships through considered and clear communication as well as fostering strong internal rituals.
Wellness and benefits
Flexible working is an option.
An additional paid holiday if you use renewable energy at home and additional days for length of service.
You will have access to the SPILL mental health support platform with free access to therapy sessions.
Access to Santander bikes if you plan to use them.
Birthdays off (a given, but worth a mention!)
