The Bakery is hiring

Working at The Bakery is a unique opportunity to learn from the best entrepreneurs and investors, to take on their mindset, attitudes and beliefs and apply them to the world’s biggest corporates — making real stuff happen.

You’ll fit in here if you are about:

• Believing in possibilities
• Being real
• Getting it done
• Making things better

The opportunity here is as big as your ambition. It’s about the art of the possible in an exponential world. Our model is the future. If you’ve been working in a traditional agency, consultancy or corporate then we will change the way you think.

We want to hire the best, smartest, most diverse, curious and ambitious minds who are excited to come on this journey with us and work in an environment of constant learning and continuous improvement.

About the role

This role is for a Director / Client Principal to lead one of our biggest global accounts and a small team of 1–2 Engagement Managers. This is a newly created role which has real potential to transform our business. In one year we’ve scaled five entrepreneur technologies within this client and need someone to take it to the next level. You’ll enjoy working with some of the smartest clients who enjoy actually getting stuff done.

Key responsibilities:

• Run our innovation programmes that scale startup technologies within the organisation
• Create & consolidate the most valuable relationships within the client organisation at the most senior level
• Lead the account to extend our fame in the client organisation
• Lead a series of story-telling engagements, events, videos and newsletters, which create fame and ‘sell’ The Bakery within the organisation.
• Work with and enhance our network of 4,000 entrepreneurs
• Build strong relationships with The Bakery Founders and Management team
• Contribute to the empowered, entrepreneurial, autonomous culture within The Bakery

About You

We welcome anyone with passion and are open to considering applicants from across all industries but feel that this would likely suit Big 4/ strategy consultant types who doesn’t quite fit in the box.

We are looking for:

• 6–8 years in client facing / project management roles
• Team management & mentorship
• Client services & relationship building at senior levels
• Commercial acumen e.g contract negotiation, proposal writing, profit management
• Strategy & long term vision setting for clients and/or internal organisations

We want people who are super passionate about:

• Learning from working with the highest growth and most exciting new startups of today
• Working with some of the most innovative open minded people within client organisations
• Delivering real results rather than just talking & making powerpoint presentations

If you feel you meet these requirements, please email ellen@thebakery.com with your CV and some reasons why you think you’d be a great fit.

Interested in us but not quite right for this role?
We are also looking for Engagement Managers (c. 2 years client facing experience), Research Support (grads/entry level), and an Events Manager and would be happy to share more about these roles upon enquiry.

We look forward to hearing from you!
