Account Director

We are looking for two Account Directors to join our outstanding Account Management Department - one in San Francisco and one in New York.  Although we would consider someone who wanted to work remotely if they had the right experience.

As an Account Director we expect that you are no longer managing projects but leading accounts or large pieces of accounts.  Your job is more than helping make the trains run well and on time.  It’s now about helping others make sure this happens.  And, more importantly, it’s about guiding the process and decisions on where to lay new track.  It’s a role that requires equal parts of quality control and leadership.

For us a great Account Director does the following:

1) Clearly defines the client’s business problem and gets people in the Agency excited to work on it.

2) Provides their own point-of-view that is considerate of both the Client’s and Agency’s viewpoints, but not necessarily beholden to either one of them.

3) Serves the needs of the individuals on their team and on the account.

Although you are the senior person managing a team of people, this is not permission to act above the other people working on the account (especially the account managers).  Instead, you need to work to serve their needs, individual by individual.  This means making time for them – even treating their time as more important than your own. This can’t be emphasized enough.  The directors that people like working with the most seem to be the ones most generous and open with their time.

4.) Constantly set (and if necessary, change) the conditions on the account to allow people to do their best work. 

We currently have two Account Director openings. One role would ideally be based out of our San Francisco office and the other would be based out of our New York office.

Additionally, we are hoping for:

Someone comfortable working across multiple workstreams and productions, always in progress. With multiple client teams.

The candidate will need to partner closely with the other Account Directors on the business to manage an account team and always-changing assignments across TV, Digital, Social, Print, and Experiential.

Ability to travel may be required.  

If you have worked as an Account Director at an advertising agency for at least 2 years and understand how to help a client get to remarkable work, we look forward to hearing from you.

Thank you.
