Senior Account Director

23...WHO?

23red is a purpose-driven creative agency. We develop brands and campaigns that change behaviour for the better and have a positive impact on people’s lives.

Whether it’s tackling climate change, fighting inequality or driving blood donations, we take pride in developing brands and campaigns that make a real difference to society.

We are experts in crafting creative campaigns that cut through and engage, delivering them through paid, owned and earned channels, frequently working through the trusted voices of media, partners, or influencers.

Our people are motivated by the impact of our work, and we have clear values, each underpinned by a set of behaviours: Collaborative, Curious, Creative, Clever and Caring.

DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION

We are committed at 23red to creating a team that represents the rich diversity of society, and we strive to create a working environment that ensures everyone can be heard and valued for their contributions. We welcome all applications, especially those from individuals who are underrepresented in our industry.
