// ABOUT US – MOMENTUM WORLDWIDE

Momentum is an experiential agency with a simple belief: it’s what brands do that matters. To bring that idea to life, we help brands deeply understand their customers and launch experiences that get the world to see them in a new way.

// WHAT ARE WE LOOKING FOR

Momentum is looking for a passionate Account Manager to play an integral role in the development and execution of experiential activations, and music and venue partnerships for a New York-based client. You’ll manage client, property, and agency relationships, as well as build and execute activations from start to finish, and develop the client’s portfolio across the entertainment industry. Specifically, this position will play a key leadership role dedicated to our Music and Music Venue program, ensuring our activations resonate within the music and entertainment space.

Please note: This is a highly operational, event-production and music/venue partner-focused role. While a deep understanding of the music space is required, your day-to-day will be driven by experiential logistics, physical activation builds, on-site execution, and event budget management.

// HERE’S WHAT YOU’LL DO (RESPONSIBILITIES)

• Lead end-to-end event logistics for live experiential activations, including vendor management, cross-functional team liaison, and on-site execution.
• Provide day-to-day support for a specific portfolio of partners, managing relationships with client(s), entertainment properties and partners, and external agency partners.
• Manage complex event budgets, including vendor negotiations, talent fees, tracking, reporting, and final reconciliation.
• Build and manage effective relationships across agency multi-disciplinary teams, working cross-functionally to solicit and convey all necessary information in a timely manner for client programs and activations.
• Support fulfilment of sponsorship deliverables and contractual assets, and provide consultative feedback to the client on opportunities as needed.
• Effectively communicate with team members in a timely and accurate manner.
• Build a thorough understanding of the client’s business, goals, and KPIs, and analyze client results into actionable takeaways.
• Stay abreast of industry and competitive trends in the marketplace to have a finger on the pulse of music and culture to identify future opportunities.
• Travel is required for this role.
• Develop full knowledge of agency’s offerings, mission and vision.
• Supporting Momentum’s Values.
• All other duties as assigned. 

// HERE’S WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR (QUALIFICATIONS & REQUIREMENTS)

• Bachelor’s degree preferred.
• 5+ years of dedicated agency-side experiential marketing and live event production experience.
• Must have a proven track record of managing physical event builds and on-site activations from the ground up (not just securing sponsorships or talent).
• Experience managing/training/mentoring junior team members.
• Proven success in collaborating with a multi-disciplinary team in achieving established objectives.
• Regularly delivers quality work (creatively and strategically solid) within budget parameters.
• Proven leadership of clients and partners.
• Highly organized as well as ability to be highly flexible in a fast-paced atmosphere.
• Experience working on large clients/projects with many moving parts.
• Proactive self-starter, able to identify projects and tasks, and see them through execution.
• Organized with the ability to multi-task, prioritize, and manage time efficiently between accounts and projects.
• Self-motivated, enthusiastic, resourceful.
• Polished, professional demeanor, team player.
• Must be flexible and able to adapt to changes quickly and efficiently.
• Strong AI experience and proficiency, including the ability to leverage and work effectively with modern AI tools to enhance workflows and strategic outputs.
