Description
APAC Media Client Teams
Performance Account Manager
Social or Search track · Pyrmont, Sydney · 50% client leadership, 50% hands-on ·
Reports to Account Director
Where this role fits: Performance Account Managers turn our work into results
on some of Australia's biggest accounts, connecting media, creative and
measurement.
About the Role
Performance Account Managers connect the work to the client. You will lead the
day-to-day client and publisher relationship on some of our largest Australian
accounts, many of them multi-market retail brands, alongside an Account Director.
Half your time is hands-on in your track, Social or Search. You will be paired with a
delivery pod in our Kuala Lumpur hub: you brief the pod, check large campaigns
against the brief before they go live, and make sure tests turn into decisions.
You can build it, optimize it and explain it to the client. Our consultants set best
practice and testing frameworks, so you can focus on results.
Career path: Senior Performance Account Manager, then Account Director as you
take on the commercials for a portfolio of clients.
