 </p>
 <p>
  The group is looking for a Senior Account Executive to join the Client Servicing team and support one of their most important regional accounts.
 </p>
 <p>
  <br/>
 </p>
 <p>
  This is not a traditional account management role focused only on client servicing. It is a project management-led position at the core of delivery, where structure, clarity, and operational excellence are just as important as client relationship building.
 </p>
 <p>

 </p>
 <p>
  <br/>
 </p>
 <p>
  You will act as the operational backbone of the account, ensuring that all work moves seamlessly across disciplines, timelines are respected, and internal teams are always working from well-defined, precise briefs.
 </p>
 <p>
  <br/>
 </p>
 <p>
  This is a high-accountability role for someone who is detail-driven, structured in thinking, and comfortable operating in a fast-paced, multi-stakeholder environment.
