As our Lead Campaign Manager, you will be responsible for leading customer and colleague creative projects through our in-house and agency studios, helping to position Metro Bank as the best bank in the UK. You will be working closely with our Brand and Marketing Director during this exciting time for Metro Bank as you bring to life our ambitious plans. 

So what would you be doing?...

You need to be this kind of person…

• Passionate about providing unparalleled levels of service and convenience for customers
