A day in the life:
You'll own a portfolio of 4-6 fashion and apparel accounts. You will serve as the primary strategic partner for your clients on a day-to-day basis, owning the narrative around performance, identifying growth opportunities, and ensuring all marketing efforts ladder up to business objectives. A successful candidate is a strong cross-channel marketer and communicator who can confidently translate data into insights, guide internal teams, and build trust with clients. This is a critical role in ensuring accounts are not only running efficiently, but driving meaningful business impact.
As an Associate Account Director (AAD), you will act as the day-to-day strategic lead for Fashion clients, ensuring marketing efforts are aligned to revenue growth driven by creative performance, customer acquisition efficiency, and retention-not just channel outputs.

  • Familiar with the influencer and UGC ecosystem: knows how campaigns are briefed, evaluated, and scaled
  • Comfortable with DTC economics: CAC, LTV, repeat rate, and what cohort behavior tells you about acquisition quality
  • Understands Meta-heavy media mixes and the measurement challenges that come with them - creative fatigue, audience saturation, incrementality
  • Has worked in seasonal marketing environments and knows how to stay strategic when execution volume is highest
  • Strong written and verbal communication; can translate performance data into a clear client narrative under time pressure
