Client Partner
Are you an experienced digital consultancy professional with a proven track record of managing public sector contracts and client relationships?

You will work closely with delivery teams, practice leads, and senior stakeholders to ensure services are delivered effectively, risks are managed proactively, and Olive Jar Digital remains a trusted partner to our clients.
The successful candidate will have extensive experience managing government or wider public sector accounts from within a digital consultancy, professional services organisation, or agency environment.
