Careers at RAA
Client Services | Creative | Online
Everyone at RAA lives and breathes our ‘clients first’ ethos, but nowhere more so than in our client services team. This is where the client facing action takes place, and our whole raison d’etre is to keep our clients smiling.
We’re all experts here – we don’t take on people to do empty admin roles, as all of our clients, large or small, require well founded advice on a daily basis. So everyone in the team is a seasoned professional - often but not always from a recruitment advertising background. Our mix of skills includes media, marketing, product advertising and PR as well.
Much as we love hard workers, we’ve shunned the agency stereotype of burning the midnight oil - mainly because we don’t pitch constantly for new business. Of course, we work hard to keep our clients happy, which is why we rarely lose a client. But you won’t find yourself chained to your desk working late on yet another pitch that might not come off.
What we do do is help each other out. Sure, there’s a little competition between client teams, but for the most part, we’re all pulling in the same direction, and we help each other out when one of us is up against it.
There are no ivory towers, and we all get our hands dirty, however high up the greasy pole we think we’ve risen. We all pitch in to make sure the work gets done, so none of us becomes too distant from the fabric of what we actually do. Which means we all sound convincing when we come face to face with a challenging client.
We recruit most regularly for Account Managers and Account Executives. Please register your details to receive updates on when an active vacancy arises.
Creative (including Freelancers)
Our creative team enjoys more variety than the average recruitment advertising agency. Mainly because we’re not just a recruitment advertising agency… In addition to the usual selection of creative and standard ads, plus brochures, websites and other recruitment communications material, our studio is also fully engaged in the product side of the business, producing advertising, brochures, websites, branding material, posters, hoardings and the like for our range of product clients.
The range of work keeps the team interested, which may explain why we have a very slow turnover of staff, and only occasionally recruit.
However, we do occasionally take on new people to expand the team, and we are always keen to hear from freelance creatives, from art directors to artworkers, as we often supplement our skills base with specific input from freelance operators.
Our small but perfectly formed web team works closely with both the client services and creative teams to create websites and online marketing campaigns for our clients.
From full-blown recruitment portals, to corporate sites, to campaign microsites and infopages, our team builds and project manages them to ensure they’re live and kicking to deadline.
We not only create the sites but we also help to market them, taking clients budgets and implementing search engine optimisation and pay per click campaigns, helping clients to identify keywords, undertake link building campaigns and generally make the best possible use of their budget to increase their site’s visibility.
Our work spans both the recruitment and product activity of the agency, so one day we might be building a recruitment microsite, and the next day a website to promote a new commercial property.
We most commonly recruit for project managers / website producers and also web builders, so why not register with our site so that you’ll be the first to know as soon as we have a live vacancy.
We are also keen to hear from freelance web designers and builders, as we often add to our resources with freelancers for specific projects.
