JOB DESCRIPTION

YOUR PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITIES

Account Strategy

You will be the expert at how to best navigate your accounts. Who are the key players? What makes them tick? What is the political landscape? How do you strategically deepen the relationship? All are important. And all are under your purview.

Client Relationship

Relationships build trust. And trust is the foundation that will allow us to grow that client’s business and push for better creative work. Use your time to build the type of relationship that positions us as a partner, not a vendor.

Client Roadmap

You’re in charge of what we do for your clients and when we do it. Work with your Growth Strategist and Creative Director to build out a strategy and then you manage the playbook.

Project Spec Sheets

You’re responsible for making sure all specs for all job are accurate and accounted for. Sizes. Deadlines. It’s on you to gather the specs and put them in the project.

Client Renewals
