This Role: Account Executive
We’re looking for a super curious, highly organised and keen Account Executive. You will be the organisational backbone of our client teams, supporting Account Managers and Directors to deliver brilliant work. You’ll act as a vital link between our clients and the agency, helping to coordinate projects from brief to delivery. While not essential, some experience or exposure to an agency environment would be great but we're also open to super keen graduates with work experience in roles where juggling different tasks was part of daily life.
Your role will include:
- Project Coordination: Supporting the day-to-day coordination of brand and campaign projects to ensure they are delivered on time, on brief and efficiently.
- Client Services Support: Attending client meetings, taking detailed minutes/contact reports and helping to manage day-to-day client communications and status updates.
- Team Collaboration: Working closely with Account Managers, Directors, and the Creative team to help execute multichannel campaigns.
- Admin: Assisting in drafting creative briefs, setting up project timelines, and keeping internal status sheets meticulously updated.
- Logistics: Arranging, prepping and attending client meetings and CoCreate sessions (including managing agendas, materials, and logistics).
- Creative Support: Helping to prepare presentation decks for creative concepts and capturing client feedback accurately.
- Financial and Tracking: Assisting with financial admin, including drafting cost estimates and setting up and managing timing plans.
- Market Insight: Undertaking desk research (e.g., competitor reviews and industry trends) to support client strategies.
- Supplier Liaison: Communicating with external suppliers to source quotes and track deliverables.
