Due to our success and growth an exciting opportunity as Client Director has arisen within the Client Solutions Team.  You will be responsible for building substantial, profitable and enduring senior and high quality relationships with global large and medium sized companies.  You will work with senior leaders in their business and in HR/L&D to sell and structure learning opportunities at scale. These will mainly be custom propositions as well open enrolment programmes. You will also have the skill and capability to cross sell across both options as well as a broader understanding of the wider school offerings including degree programmes and research centres.

You will take overall accountability for growth and profitability for a portfolio of existing clients and the acquisition of new clients.
