An opportunity has arisen to join our growing team as a Senior Account Manager. Working alongside a Client Partner, Account Manager, Senior Account Executive and Account Executive across our client portfolio, you’ll act as an important link between Education Cubed, its clients and the third party providers we work with. You will strive to understand your client’s goals, managing day‑to‑day affairs and ensuring customer satisfaction. You’ll also assist with the tendering process and new business research.
You will need to prove that you have had at least three years of managing several multi‑stakeholder external clients in an advertising/marketing environment. This will include evidence of building close bonds with clients, successful campaign management, reporting and smooth issue management. In addition, you will need to prove that you have gravitas with clients and that you are able to give clear opinion and feedback which is well received. You will need to show that you have led & directed meetings including effective agenda setting, detailed reports that you are able to talk through with confidence & evidence of “stand up” presenting, both in person and virtually.
