Agency Account Manager

Are you an ambitious and high-impact Account Manager? Do you have a passion for creative work and live for the fast-paced nature of agency life? If you’re not afraid to get stuck in and have already rolled your sleeves up - we want you! 

Join one of New Zealand’s fastest-growing advertising creative agencies, take charge of one of their most established global accounts, and OWN it, your way. 

On behalf of our client, we’re looking for a dynamic Account Manager to take ownership within a fast-growing agency and crank the dial up. This role will oversee one of the agency’s key clients – a global QSR brand that’s loved and recognised by many. If you’re an individual with great work autonomy and a hunger to grow and excel, this is the role where your hard work will reap the accolades.

The ideal candidate needs to be passionate, have the confidence and flair to lead relationships with their clients, and appreciate the fast-paced nature of working in a full-service agency. You will work closely with some of the industry’s best Account Directors and be set up for success.

The ideal person will not be a stranger to consistently high service levels, conscientious business practices, energy, style, and flair – all wrapped up in a ‘winning’ attitude. Someone coming from managing a fast-paced retail or F&B account in another advertising or full service agency will slot right in and bring this account to the next level.
