Integrated B2B Communications Account Director

This is an Account Director role for someone who wants real ownership – of clients, standards, and outcomes. If you care deeply about narrative, quality, and being a trusted advisor (not just a service lead), you’ll feel at home here.

About Bloxspring

Founded in 2020, Bloxspring is the integrated comms firm for visionary companies in the built world (real estate, climate, energy and construction).

Our clients share a common goal: to become category leaders. We help them get there by fusing our unique built world experience, with high-impact strategy, storytelling and creative. We believe the best communications programmes are integrated by default – clear thinking, excellent execution, and absolute clarity on what a client should be known for.

Our team is split between London, UK and Washington D.C., USA, working with clients across North America and Europe.

The Role

We’re looking for an Integrated B2B Communications Account Director to take ownership of our most important global client relationships.

This is a senior, client-facing role for someone who brings gravitas, precision and confidence – someone who knows what “great” looks like across earned media and owned content, and who isn’t afraid to push back when quality or clarity is at risk.

You’ll lead accounts end-to-end: shaping the narrative, setting strategic direction, overseeing execution, and acting as a trusted partner to senior client stakeholders.

This role is ideal for someone who:

• Thrives in high-pressure environments
• Leads from the front and sets the standard
• Cares deeply about quality, detail, and clarity
• Wants genuine influence in a growing agency

Sector experience isn’t required. Seniority, judgement and high standards are.

What You’ll Be Responsible For:

• Owning and leading high-value, high-expectation B2B client accounts
• Acting as the senior day-to-day contact for clients, including founders and exec teams
• Commanding trust and respect through calm authority, clarity and follow-through
• Knowing when to challenge clients – and how to do it constructively
• Leading the strategic development of integrated communications programmes
• Defining and refining the narrative clients should own in their market
• Translating business objectives into earned and owned content strategies
• Ensuring consistency, coherence and quality across all outputs

Integrated Delivery

• Overseeing earned media programmes (announcements, thought leadership, commentary, data stories, interviews, news‑jacking)
• Ensuring owned content (executive content, blogs, articles, white papers) is strategically aligned and editorially strong
• Acting as the final quality bar – detail, tone, messaging, timing
• Coaching and developing account managers and executives
• Delegating clearly and effectively across multiple accounts
• Raising standards across writing, media relations and strategic thinking
• Providing calm, decisive leadership under pressure

Agency Contribution

• Playing a senior role in shaping how Bloxspring works with clients
• Supporting account growth and retention through excellent delivery
• Representing Bloxspring with confidence and credibility externally

What We’re Looking For

• 6+ years’ experience in B2B communications (agency background essential)
• Proven experience leading high‑pressure, complex client accounts
• Deep understanding of earned media and how it integrates with owned content
• Strong strategic instincts – you can spot a weak narrative from a mile away
• Exceptional attention to detail and standards
• Natural authority and presence with clients and teams
• Clear, confident communicator (written and verbal)
• Comfortable working across time zones and cultures

Salary & Benefits

Benefits include:

• Performance-linked bonus and incentives
• 25 days holiday (plus mandatory 2 week Christmas shutdown)
• 1 additional day of leave for birthday
• 1 day charity leave
• Home office / WFH setup allowance
• Opportunity to have an influential role in a growing agency
