ABOUT THE ROLE

We’re looking for an Account Manager/Senior Account Manager who is organized, proactive, and genuinely energized by great creative work. You’ll be the connective tissue between our clients and our internal team — keeping projects on track, relationships strong, and the work at its highest quality. A strategic project leader, not just a keeper of timelines. You bring structure to ambiguity, solve problems proactively, and help clients and internal teams move forward with confidence.

CLIENT-FACING RESPONSIBILITIES

• Build trusted, consultative relationships that go beyond task management — you understand their business, their category, and their goals
• Support client meetings, write clear recap reports and status updates, and keep all communication timely and tight
• Managing project timelines and scheduling all client meetings, at least 2 weeks in advance
• Present briefs, creative work and timelines with clarity and confidence
• Manage expectations honestly — proactively flagging risks before they become problems
• Support fee and timing negotiations with guidance from senior team members
• Stay plugged into CPG and packaging trends to bring informed perspective to client conversations

INTERNAL RESPONSIBILITIES

• Own end-to-end project management for workstreams, from kick-off brief through final production files
• Maintain internal project management systems and keep up to date (Figma boards, Monday.com, timelines, resourcing, etc.)
• Schedule internal meetings, working through team conflicts when necessary
• Partner closely with creative and strategy to deliver work that meets the brief and the budget
• Contribute to new business pitches and presentations as needed

WHAT YOU BRING

• +4 years of account management experience in a branding, design, or creative agency
• Solid CPG experience, you understand the category, the clients, and the pace
• Direct experience with packaging production
• Exceptional organizational skills and attention to detail
• Strong written and verbal communication; you write clearly, present confidently, and follow up without being asked
• A solutions-first mindset; you stay calm under pressure and figure it out
• Comfort managing multiple projects and stakeholders simultaneously
• Low ego & high standards; you care about the work and the people doing it
• Strong judgment and problem-solving skills - you anticipate challenges, think ahead, and help keep projects and relationships on track

KEYS TO SUCCESS

• You think operationally and act proactively, not waiting for problems to surface.
• You communicate with clarity across all levels and departments, from creatives to account leads to clients.
• You are a calm, stabilizing presence in a fast-paced environment, managing competing priorities without losing accuracy.
