About the Role: We are looking for a Senior Account Manager with an understanding of B2B marketing. You'll be leading integrated campaigns across digital, email, social, content, events and OOH.
The day to day looks like:
- Own the day-to-day client relationship for Optus and IBM — interrogating briefs, earning client trust as a proactive, solutions-oriented partner, whilst being part of a strong team.
- Form strong relationships with strategists, creatives, producers to develop and deliver brilliant strategic and creative outputs.
- Manage projects from end-to-end. A strong understanding of prioritising tasks, managing budgets and timelines to ensure that everything stays on track.
- Build up knowledge in the B2B space and use these insights and key client project learnings to inform proactive client work.
- Have a good understanding of how smaller projects fit into a bigger picture and are able to identify and raise new opportunities for growth across key clients.
You will need to:
- Be an experienced Account Manager or Senior Account Manager with a minimum of 3-5 years’ creative agency experience, ideally from a digital or integrated background.
- Exhibit strong project management skills, a solid marketing background, and a creative mindset, with experience in B2B communications would be great but not 100% essential.
- Excel in communication, both written and verbal, and are confident in presenting to clients.
- Have a track record in developing strong relationships both internally with your team and with clients.
- Be happy working from our Redfern office from Tuesday through to Thursday with the option of hybrid work from home days.
- Hold a relevant Bachelor's degree and have a passion for continuous learning and growth.
