We are looking to hire a Senior Account Manager to work on one of our biggest B2C clients.

The opportunity represents a lot of what's great about advertising, but inherently it means that we're looking for a very specific type of person. Someone who loves analytics and data, has an understanding of Paid Social, is eager to learn and thrives in a fast paced and dynamic environment. Experience on an FMCG and / or retail client is a bonus.

"If you thrive working on a fast paced account, and love teamwork this is the position for you. It is definitely a milestone role in your career." - Ali Spillane (Account Director)

The Senior Account Manager is a highly motivated self-starter who can lead, but can also throw themselves into any project and do what needs to get done. The role requires an ownership mindset and a strong sense of responsibility across any task small or large.

As social is our bread and butter, ideally you have previous experience within a social media agency. Experience with influencer marketing and paid media is also a plus

At We Are Social we truly believe we create Ideas Worth Talking About (IDWTA); this role is central in making sure we deliver to that by ensuring that they set the team up for success. This is not done alone. This role will work alongside a talented and high performance Client Service team, along with Strategy, Editorial, Creative and Production.
