Are you our new Senior Account Executive?

Over the past 16 years, Fuel has developed an outstanding reputation for fuelling growth for both our clients and our team from our offices in Plymouth and Birmingham.

As a 4 Day Week and Mindful Employer, we lead the way in enabling our people to be at their best so that they can offer our clients energy and ideas.  Makes sense, right? Well, we have less sickness absence, our team has a better work-life balance and our retention levels far exceed industry standard.  Since we launched our hybrid model, our revenue is up double digits and we are well ahead of where we were this time last year.

With ambitious continued growth plans in place, we’re now looking for a new Senior Account Executive to come in and help us on our journey. This is a pivotal role so you will need significant agency or in-house experience to hit the ground running with our clients across the UK and overseas. You will also need to be a strong communicator and team player, with proven creative and technical skills in social media, PPC and SEO.

Key dates: The closing for applications is 10 November 2024. We will shortlist candidates for interviews which will take place week commencing 18 November 2024. Shortlisted candidates will be asked to present a campaign plan and receive a brief for the plan when they are invited to interview. The role will commence from 2 January 2025.

Salary: Will match your experience and growth potential.
