Front page of the new IPA web site with an ad for our new Account Director

There is a lot you can say about the IPA having been less than in touch with innovations in communication. But the new site that launched the other day is actually rather good. Feels a lot more like actual humans are behind the organisation from the look of the front page, unfortunately going in deeper and you are confronted by a sea of grey blocky type which is a shame. But a good change for the better. -and yes I know this post comes with full 'Glass houses' inclinations.

New Job?

Account Director (£45K) needed to help manage expanding client base.
Entrepreneurial self-starter with a good understanding of how small agencies operate.

We are looking for a creatively minded, inquisitive thinker to join a small multi-discipline team. You should have a strong interest in the changing nature of today’s communications.

You will have already had responsibility for day-to-day management on a portfolio of client accounts. Now seeking a greater autonomy and a bigger contribution to the running of an agency.

We are: t7F London.

We call ourselves brand strategists for the real world. We develop and launch challenger brands. We re-focus and re-energise tired or maturing brands. We realise our ideas across whichever media channel is appropriate from broadcast to social networks.

Our work is very varied but can be categorised as dealing with ‘awkward’ market conditions. For instance: an online navigation and music discovery mash-up for Harman Kardon; a TV spot and social network activity for FRONTLINE Spot-on; a Facebook campaign for First Drinks Brands; and the launch of a new weight management product, Appesat, using press, posters and online.

t7F London is part of The Terrace, a group of three owner-managed communication agencies.

AW Media founded in 1987 and still going strong as a full service media independent.

Nextdoor a new digital media specialist. Planning, buying and creating.

t7F London was founded by Robert Thackery and Philip Slade, there is a whole load more online if you look.
