Account Executive

About the Position

We are seeking an Account Executive to manage client campaigns, ensuring smooth communication and project execution within the marketing sector.

Account executives ensure the smooth running of campaigns – from communicating the correct information to all members of the team, to facing clients and reporting to the account director.

An account executive should be interested in the client in order to develop strong, meaningful relationships. Timely communication is imperative in order to complete projects on time and on budget.

An unrivalled level of organization is expected so that all campaigns run efficiently, with other team members relying on project organization in order to meet deadlines and understand client expectations.

Often account executives will receive a plan for a campaign from the account director and be expected to monitor it every step of the way, whilst creating an enjoyable work environment and keeping momentum going.

Once an account executive has built up a trustworthy reputation and managed to hone the perfect organizational skills, they can often move forward to become an account director.
