Job Description

We're looking for an ambitious Account Manager to help create work with positive cultural impact.

About Trippin

Trippin is an independent platform that connects travel, culture and creativity like never before. With community at the heart of the platform, Trippin uncovers stories that are found at the intersection of social and cultural boundaries. Championing global creativity, mapping underground scenes, unpicking cultural mosaics and connecting cultures worldwide - all through the eyes of locals.

Trippin has partnered with some of the world’s most progressive brands who share our values and desire to create great content and experiences. Amongst others, we have worked with Nike, Versace, adidas, Converse, Farfetch, The Hoxton and Moncler.

Off the back of this success we are building All Corners - a creative consultancy that is dialled in to our worldwide creative community, helping brands make greater cultural impact.

About you

As an emerging branch of the Trippin business, we’re braced for big growth and so this is a fantastic opening at a formative time to suit an ambitious account manager in search of a more influential role. You love collaborating with people of all backgrounds, always take a positive approach, and take pride being at the heart of partnerships that create genuine impact.

You love what we do and are fed by a curiosity in all things brands, travel, arts, culture, design and beyond; you recognise that All Corners is in a unique position here - as part of the Trippin ecosystem - to make generational work. Work that has real cultural substance, that sets out to include and empower our network of young creative communities worldwide, all the while driven by positive and purposeful values.

You know what makes brands tick and have experience leading partnerships within a publishing company, or at a culturally clued-up agency. You’re confident and comfortable managing a range of clients, diplomatic when you need to be and a dab hand at managing stakeholder expectations. Eager to build strong relationships and develop a proper understanding of their brand.

With a flair for organising and managing multiple campaigns end-to-end, you make projects happen with minimal friction.

You will manage budgets, manage timings, and marshal the deliverables with the versatility to overcome unforeseen challenges as we go up through the gears. You’re confident in leading meetings and presentations articulately, with incredible brand knowledge and enthusiasm.

This position sits within the Client Services function of All Corners, working alongside rising stars in media, strategy, creative and production roles who bounce off each other for energy and inspiration. At Trippin we look for fresh ways to solve problems and encourage diversity of thought, and are looking for someone who lives the same philosophy.
