PR / Creative / Media / Marketing Agency New Business Growth and Partnerships Manager

New Yesterday

Job Description

PLEASE DO NOT APPLY UNLESS YOU HAVE WORKED IN THE COMMUNICATIONS SPACE AT AN AGENCY (DIGITAL, MEDIA, CREATIVE, ADVERTISING, MARKETING, PR, SOCIAL, INFLUENCER)


NB. The Agency is a progressive agency operating a 4 day week.


The Role

This is a new business growth role.


You will drive enterprise revenue, secure high-value partnerships, and strengthen our client's position as a category leader in influencer marketing.


While the title is flexible, this is effectively an Agency New Business Lead profile — someone who thrives on building pipeline, opening doors, and converting opportunity into long-term commercial partnerships.


Core Responsibilities;

New Business Growth (Primary Focus)

  • Proactively targeting and securing blue-chip and enterprise brands
  • Building and owning a structured outbound engine (LinkedIn, email, events, networking)
  • Leading discovery sessions, briefings, and pitch presentations
  • Owning the full sales cycle from first conversation through to conversion
  • Generating new relationships through industry events and roundtables
  • Converting inbound interest through strong qualification and follow-through


Expanding Existing Partnerships

  • Identifying upsell and cross-sell opportunities within current accounts
  • Evolving one-off campaigns into long-term strategic partnerships
  • Maintaining senior stakeholder visibility to protect and grow revenue
  • Ideate strategies to drive new business opportunities where a client has a multi-brand portfolio


Process & Collaboration

  • Maintaining strong CRM discipline and pipeline hygiene
  • Ensuring seamless sales-to-account handovers
  • Working closely with marketing to align positioning, content, and events with growth strategy
  • Supporting development of best practice, tools, and reporting frameworks


Who This Role Is For

A commercially sharp operator with a genuine hunter mentality.


You will likely come from a media, digital, PR, social, or influencer agency environment. Influencer experience is helpful but not essential — the critical factor is your ability to build and convert senior-level relationships.


You bring:

  • A strong growth mindset and ownership mentality
  • A credible network (“black book”) of brand and/or agency contacts
  • Confidence leading enterprise-level commercial conversations
  • Experience owning the full new business lifecycle
  • Structured pipeline management and CRM discipline
  • The ability to turn complex ideas into compelling commercial propositions
  • You are proactive, calm under pressure, structured in approach, and commercially driven.


What This Role Is Not

  • Surface-level enthusiasm without delivery
  • Big energy without process
  • Creative flair without conversion
  • Style over substance


This is a revenue-owning, relationship-building role with real accountability.


Why Join Our Client?

You’ll be joining a scaling, progressive agency combining creativity, data, and technology to reshape how brands think about influencer marketing, all within a genuinely modern four-day working week model.


The package includes:

  • Competitive base salary
  • Performance incentives
  • Learning and development budget
  • Investment in tools and technology
  • Clear progression as they scale
  • Autonomy and meaningful influence over growth strategy
