Description
Position Title: Account Manager
Reports to: Director Client Services
As the client's first and foremost point of contact, the AM is many things to many people. Whether you are saving the day, herding the cats, putting out fires or lending an ear and commiserating, the AM is ultimately the client's go-to who makes sure the client is delighted and has what they need. The role requires a love of people, exceptional communication, killer organization skills, mental flexibility and the ability to juggle all the balls.
