Role Mission

As a Global Account Director in SAMY you’ll serve as the senior day-to-day strategic lead across key accounts, ensuring projects are thoughtfully planned, smoothly delivered and positively received. A core part of the role is acting as the bridge between our UK clients and the wider global agency team, maintaining clarity, momentum and alignment throughout.

New project coming!

Join the team behind one of the world's most iconic beauty portfolios and help define how global brands win in today's creator economy.

Beauty is one of the fastest-moving and most influential industries in the world. Trends are born overnight, creators shape consumer behaviour, and communities decide what products become tomorrow's icons. Working on this account means having a front-row seat to everything happening across social, culture, creators and innovation.

At SAMY, you'll help global beauty brands stay ahead of what's next. You'll turn cultural shifts into strategy, identify the creators driving conversations, and build advocacy programmes that connect brands with millions of people in authentic ways.

You'll work at the intersection of social, culture, AI, technology and creativity, where every day brings new trends, new platforms and new opportunities to shape the future of beauty marketing.

If you're passionate about creators, obsessed with culture and excited by the idea of working on one of the most prestigious global beauty accounts in the industry, we'd love to meet you.
