The Role
As a Senior Account Manager at Moonbug Entertainment, you will own and grow meaningful client partnerships, serving as a trusted, executive-level partner across a diverse portfolio of accounts. You will lead complex relationships and play a key role in driving account health, retention, and long-term growth, representing Moonbug confidently with senior stakeholders.

In Brand Partnerships, Account Management means being in the driver's seat for bringing big, imaginative programs to life inside the world of Moonbug. You will oversee the execution of custom social integrations, bespoke YouTube content, Roblox sponsorships, cross-channel paid media campaigns, events, and more, all for major household-name brands looking to connect with families around the globe. We are the doorway for brands to step into Moonbug's colorful universe and speak to our massive global audience, and you'll ensure every partnership feels seamless, thoughtful, and impactful.

This is not a pitch role. It is where the magic gets made. Creative concepts and sales conversations may start the journey, but you are the one who makes sure what was promised becomes reality. You will quarterback cross-functional teams, solve problems in real time, keep timelines tight, and ensure our partners feel supported every step of the way.

This role is ideal for someone who brings strong executive presence, sound judgment, and the confidence to navigate day-to-day decisions while collaborating closely with leadership and internal teams. You'll mentor junior teammates, help refine how we show up for brands, and contribute to initiatives that elevate the entire department.

If you love structure and process but also thrive in a fast-moving, playful environment where global brands meet beloved kids content, this is the seat for you.
