Your responsibilities would involve:
• Being an entrepreneur in the new business arena – enjoying and having a strong track record in new business conversion

• Working with the New Business Director and senior leadership team within brand to formulate and oversee the new business prospecting process
• Managing senior client contacts and ensure client retention
• Instilling high levels of creativity in the team through example and training
• Working with the senior team within the brand practice to continue to grow the profile of the practice to the external market through innovative marketing activity
