Client Director

MISSION

At STAN, Client Directors are trusted advisors — not traditional account managers.

We’re looking for an exceptional Client Director to lead the day-to-day relationship and integrated delivery of a major new global client partnership in women’s health.

Working directly with STAN’s founders, you’ll sit at the centre of an ambitious, multi-market platform spanning strategy, creative, live experiences, content, communications and digital. You’ll bring together STAN teams, specialist partners and senior client stakeholders to turn an ambitious vision into exceptional work.

The role will initially focus on this partnership, with the potential to expand across STAN’s growing portfolio.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES

Client Leadership & Strategic Partnership

• Become a trusted advisor to senior client stakeholders and take ownership of the day-to-day relationship.
• Lead complex stakeholder conversations with confidence, clarity and sound judgement.
• Anticipate client needs, challenges and opportunities before they arise.
• Work closely with STAN’s founders on strategic direction, key decisions and senior client relationships.

Integrated Delivery & Quality

• Lead integrated delivery across multiple markets, workstreams and project phases.
• Bring together teams across strategy, creative, live experiences, content, communications, digital and specialist partners.
• Translate strategy into clear priorities, briefs, actions and approval pathways.
• Work closely with project management to oversee roadmaps, timelines, budgets, dependencies and deliverables.
• Anticipate risks, solve problems proactively and keep complex work moving.
• Act as a quality gate across the partnership, ensuring every deliverable reflects STAN’s standards for creative excellence and execution.

Leadership

• Lead multidisciplinary teams with clarity, confidence and high standards.
• Create alignment across STAN, client teams and external partners.
• Take ownership rather than simply coordinating — contributing directly to strategic thinking and the quality of the work.

YOUR PROFILE

Strategic Client Leader

• Typically 8+ years of experience within a leading creative agency, brand, innovation or strategic consultancy.
• Significant experience leading high-profile, multi-market client relationships and complex integrated projects.
• Confident advising senior executives and navigating multiple stakeholders, partners and workstreams.
• Able to move easily between strategic thinking and hands-on delivery.
• Strong commercial judgement and understanding of scope, budgets and client relationships.
• Exceptional written and spoken English.

How You Work

• Strategic, hands-on and highly proactive.
• Calm under pressure and comfortable navigating complexity and ambiguity.
• Exceptional attention to detail and uncompromising standards for creative excellence.
• Able to anticipate what is needed, make decisions and drive momentum.
• Curious, collaborative and culturally engaged.

Genuine passion for women’s health is important. Experience in women’s health, healthcare, science or adjacent sectors is a strong advantage, but not essential.

Availability

• Based in Europe or the United States, with remote working possible.
• Available to start on a freelance basis, with the potential to develop into a broader role within STAN over time.
• Available for international travel as required.
