• Keep it moving — run timelines, budgets, and teams with precision and calm.
• Push the thinking — bring insights that make creative braver and smarter.
• Grow the account — spot opportunities to scale identities and amplify activations.
• Elevate the team — mentor juniors, inspire peers, and keep collaboration flowing.

Long:

Client Partnership

What You Bring

• 4–6 years of experience in account management within a creative, brand, or design agency.
• A track record of culturally attuned, relevant work — projects that connect brands to people through insight, creativity, and timing.
• Deeply connected to culture — you live what’s shaping youth, fashion, and pop moments right now, with a strong affinity for branding and campaigns.
• A love for brand, design, and storytelling — you get what makes brands meaningful and creative work impactful.
• Strong organisational skills — you can juggle timelines, budgets, and creative chaos and still make it look easy.
• Clear and confident communication — in presentations, emails, and tough conversations.
• A commercial mindset: you understand budgets, scopes, and the bigger picture.
• Fluency in English and German (spoken and written).
