Do našeho týmu hledáme výraznou osobnost na pozici Account Director. Nehledáme jen člověka, který bude řídit klientský servis. Hledáme lídra, který dokáže inspirovat tým, posouvat klienty dopředu a aktivně spoluvytvářet budoucnost agentury.
Tahle role má zásadní strategický dopad – převezme vedení klíčových klientů a zároveň bude významně ovlivňovat interní kulturu, spolupráci i další směřování týmu.
Co od této role očekáváme?
Inspirativní leadership
Hledáme člověka s přirozenou autoritou a silným leadership mindsetem. Nejde nám primárně o počet let v manažerské roli, ale o schopnost vést, motivovat a rozvíjet lidi kolem sebe. Chceme osobnost, která umí tým strhnout, dát mu směr a vytvářet prostředí založené na důvěře, energii a ambici.
Business & client mindset
Klient pro vás není jen zadání a brief. Přemýšlíte strategicky, rozumíte businessu a aktivně hledáte nové příležitosti pro růst klienta i agentury. Dokážete přicházet s řešeními ještě dřív, než si o ně klient řekne. Hledáme člověka, který bude pro klienty skutečným partnerem a konzultantem.
Inovativní a kreativní přístup
Nebojíte se nových cest, experimentů ani odvážných nápadů. Umíte spojovat strategii, kreativitu a business dopad. Přinášíte nové perspektivy a dokážete posouvat marketingovou komunikaci dál.
Schopnost propojovat
Role vyžaduje velmi silnou schopnost spolupráce napříč týmy – strategie, kreativa, produkce, data, tech a další.
Co bude vaším úkolem?
- Strategické vedení a rozvoj klíčových klientů
- Aktivní identifikace nových business příležitostí
- Rozvoj klientských vztahů nad rámec běžného account managementu
- Leadership a rozvoj týmu
- Propojování interních kompetencí a podpora spolupráce napříč agenturou
- Přinášení nových nápadů, iniciativ a růstových příležitostí
Koho hledáme
- Máte zkušenost z agentury, marketingu, consultingu nebo podobného prostředí
- Přemýšlíte strategicky a businessově
- Umíte vést lidi a přirozeně inspirovat okolí
- Máte tah na výsledek a zároveň vysokou míru empatie
- Umíte fungovat v komplexním prostředí a propojovat různé disciplíny
- Máte proaktivní přístup a chuť věci skutečně měnit
- Češtinu ovládáte plynně a angličtinu na pokročilé úrovni
Proč k nám?
Dostanete prostor ovlivňovat velké klienty, reálný business i fungování týmu. Hledáme člověka, který nechce jen spravovat agendu, ale chce tvořit, posouvat věci dopředu a být vidět na strategické úrovni agentury.
