The posting

About Emperor

Emperor is for your great ambitions. We're an employee-owned corporate communications and creative agency with more than 240 partners specialising in reporting, brand, digital, employee engagement, change and sustainability.

We want to be the agency of choice for ambitious talent. So, we’re looking for brilliant people who actively want to create great things with us.

Our culture is one where you’re free to do, learn and achieve better. We welcome every partner to experience a sense of belonging; whoever you are, wherever you’re working from, whatever your role. Our values guide how we work every day, with each other, our clients, and suppliers. And with our friendly inclusive environment, effort and empathy, we make the feeling real.

The Role

Based at the London headquarters of the wider independent, employee-owned Emperor agency, we have built an impressive and diverse portfolio of brand and employee engagement clients, including Reckitt, BT, Lindt, Clarksons, NFU Mutual, Standard Life and Lloyds Banking Group. Our team has grown the practice to almost £3m in annual revenue, but we see significant untapped potential for further expansion across both existing and new client relationships within brand and engagement.

As a result, we're looking for an ambitious and commercially driven Commercial Lead to help accelerate the next phase of growth. This is a high-impact leadership role for someone with a proven track record of driving business development, identifying and converting new opportunities, and expanding client partnerships within the brand and engagement sector. Reporting directly to the CEO, you will be a key member of the senior leadership team.

Success in this role requires strong credibility in brand and engagement consulting, particularly across corporate and B2B brand development and activation. However, equally important is a growth mindset and a natural instinct for spotting opportunities. We're looking for someone who thrives on building relationships, opening doors, creating demand, and converting conversations into long-term partnerships. You will work closely with both existing and prospective clients to unlock new opportunities and increase client investment in our services.

Alongside leading commercial performance, you will provide leadership to our existing strong team of experienced brand and engagement consultants who need an inspiring leader to support individual and collective growth.

Responsibilities:

•Accountability for the growth of the Brand & Engagement practice - developing, implementing and reporting on a strategic growth plan to the board.

•Creation of brand and engagement opportunities through networking, content development, marketing and new business activity – with the support of the specialist teams around you.

•Working closely with our director of client services and our community of client directors to find ways to expand more existing relationships into brand and engagement.

•Working with your peers in our specialist areas of expertise – Reporting, Sustainability, Digital and AI to develop innovative new insights, services and solutions that ensure that our integrated, multi-disciplinary offer stays relevant and attractive to clients and prospects.

•A portion of your time dedicated to working directly with major clients as a senior specialist consultant where appropriate to deliver brilliant solutions and sustained client growth.

•Building productive relationships with our extensive network of referrer agencies, particularly PR agencies.

•Leadership of our team of specialist team of consultants.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
