As a member of the Client Services team you are the face of our brand for our clients, but in equal measures, act as the voice of the client to inform our work.

You also manage all day-to-day communications and act as the face of AKQA for project checkpoints with the clients and key stakeholders. During those engagements, you're comfortable making decisions on behalf of the business and client (in consultation with the Client Partner), and can provide an honest point of view that helps progress the project and improve the craft.
 
Internally, as Senior Producer you’ll manage project execution from briefing through to final delivery and are able to critically evaluate the output of work from each discipline and provide effective and actionable feedback. You’ll drive communications with clients, internal team members and third-party suppliers and build long-standing relationships along the way.
