Lead Business Partner / Head of Client Service

This role is with an exceptional Auckland-based agency, a multi-disciplinary creative production studio. With a diverse team of talent from many disciplines, they work locally and globally with clients to create provocative ideas that live within advertising, design, entertainment, and technology.

They are looking for a Lead Business Partner / Head of Client Service to primarily lead one of the agency's most important and exciting clients, as well as drive stability and leadership of an absolutely brilliant team of Client Service talent.

This is a complex, high-profile portfolio account spanning some of New Zealand's best-known alcohol brands.  The work is predominantly social-led, meaning this is a role that needs to be equally comfortable in the boardroom, on set and in the detail of a fast-moving content calendar.  This isn't simply an account management role. You will be expected to think and operate like a business leader: understanding the business, shaping where you can take the relationship, spotting opportunities, challenging constructively, protecting the quality of the work and making sure every job makes commercial sense.

You will also have an important role as a senior leader within the agency. You will contribute to the vision, culture and growth of the wider agency, helping shape how they work, developing people and supporting the CEO as they continue to evolve. You will own the vision for the client service team, bringing together Strategy, Creative, Social and Production to deliver work that makes a difference for clients and prospects.

Don’t miss this opportunity to work with a globally recognised collaborative team in a forward-thinking, fast-paced and inclusive agency.
