The Role
We’re looking for an Account Manager to join our team managing a range of projects from social to digital through to CRM and loyalty. A big focus of this will involve managing a large retail client's full digital and social portfolio.
It is a fast-paced retail account with multiple moving parts and stakeholders. So, we’re looking for an individual that can thrive in this environment – comfortable with an element of unpredictability, navigating and managing change, making smart decisions on the run and guiding the team and client to the best possible outcome.
You will play a pivotal role in coordinating the multi-disciplinary strategy and creative team to deliver effective and efficient creative solutions for the brand, so it’s vital that you come with a positive, curious mindset. You will help guide and deliver business-critical projects, so we’re looking for someone that has high expectations of themselves and the team. We need someone that can earn the trust of the client and internal team quickly, so you become the ‘go-to’ for all things on projects, knowing exactly what is always going on. Additionally, our Account Managers must be adept in asking the right questions to identify the best course of action and thinking laterally.
Key Responsibilities:
* Management of the Brand's weekly social and digital – working with a strategist, a small creative team, and studio to deliver multiple weekly campaigns to engage different segments.
* Management of campaigns aligning with key dates in the retail calendar and key retail periods (Easter, Back to School, Christmas, etc.)
* Management of inter-agency relationships and Client IAT responses. Working closely with technology consultants across multiple campaigns at once.
* Update client status reports, send contact reports and support day-to-day management of the Brand account.
Across all items above – track performance and work with the wider team to identify opportunities to increase effectiveness via A/B testing and reactive cultural moments.
A bit about you:
* Experience working with a multi-disciplinary agency team; being a ‘go-to’ for client and internal team.
* Experience in digital marketing, social content, and CRM – confident in guiding the team and clients through creative development and briefing/reviewing work.
* Organised and proactive – knows exactly what’s happening on projects today, next week, and next month to gather people and information as required to guarantee progress.
* Be an omni-channel thinker. Experienced overseeing digital comms, content, and experiences.
* Experience with retail brands is valued, but not mandatory.
* Have high standards and hold the team (and yourself) accountable.
* Obsesses over the detail and always be ahead of the client to anticipate and manage change.
* Be personable and a strong communicator to influence client and team decisions.
* Have the ability and appetite to help grow the account - supporting the business leads and creating growth opportunities through strategic recommendations.
* Be obsessed with all things cultural, social, digital, and technology.
