Who we’re looking for:

We’re looking for a proactive Account Manager who is passionate about fusing bold creative ideas with cutting-edge technology to shape best-in-class CRM experiences. Sitting at the heart of our largest, most dynamic CRM account, you’ll join a collaborative team with a commitment to delivering brave, impactful work. In this role, you will champion the entire end-to-end CRM lifecycle. You’ll partner closely with our clients to take briefs from strategy and data-focused insights, all the way to delivery and post-campaign analysis. Working alongside your Account Director and the wider cross-functional agency team, you will serve as a primary client contact, driving forward-thinking, data-led campaigns (from dynamic email journeys to real-time push notifications) that deliver meaningful, measurable business results.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Be the main client point of contact for the CRM team across the different subdivision

  • Working with key clients you will understand and interpret their brief, challenging the ask when necessary to ensure we are always delivering the best solution, pulling in other members of the team as and when required

  • Writing and contributing to briefs, as well as interpreting information and developing insights to assist in the delivery of all work

  • You’ll be presenting work to clients, taking and challenging feedback when necessary

  • Work closely with our data team to support data strategy development to ensure the optimum targeting and messaging

  • Guiding multidisciplinary creative teams through creative concepting, design and copy

  • Working closely with the finance teams estimating/reconciling own projects and ensuring projects are delivered within budget, as well as supporting with end of month invoicing

  • Ensuring campaign strategies are technically feasible within the CRM system

  • Supporting our build and operation team, ensuring our assets are deployed seamlessly

  • Aiding with troubleshooting ad hoc issues, requests and issues

  • Contributing to and supporting on larger strategic opportunities

We believe the best work happens when we're together, fostering creativity, collaboration, and connection. That's why we’ve adopted a hybrid approach, with teams in the office an average of four days a week. If you require accommodations or flexibility, please discuss this with the hiring team during the interview process.
