• 7+ years' experience in a similar role (agency or consultancy experience preferred)
• Proven experience managing digital accounts and multi-disciplinary teams
• Strong understanding of DXP/CMS websites, product development and digital marketing
• A track record of driving client growth and retention
• Excellent stakeholder engagement and communication skills
• Strategic thinking and commercial acumen
• The ability to lead conversations at a senior level with confidence and clarity
