This role focuses on managing day-to-day client relationships and coordinating delivery across active accounts.

You will work with clients, account leadership, designers, strategists, producers, project managers, finance, and specialist teams. Clear communication, reliable follow-through, and careful work are expected.

AI-assisted tools may be used for meeting summaries, status reporting, scope tracking, research, documentation, and preparation of client-facing materials. All AI-assisted work must be reviewed for accuracy, relevance, confidentiality, and fit before it is shared or used.

• Manage day-to-day communication and working relationships across assigned client accounts.
• Translate client requests, feedback, and priorities into clear briefs, actions, and next steps.
• Maintain project status, timing, approvals, scope information, dependencies, and account records.
• Coordinate internal teams and follow up on actions needed to keep work moving.
• Prepare meeting agendas, status reports, presentations, estimates, and supporting documents.
• Identify delivery risks, unclear requests, missing information, or scope changes and raise them early.
• Support account planning, resourcing, invoicing inputs, and routine commercial administration.
• Maintain accurate client records and ensure commitments are documented and followed through.

Essential requirements

• Experience coordinating client work, accounts, projects, or professional-service delivery.
• Strong written and verbal communication with the ability to organize complex information clearly.
• Ability to manage several priorities, deadlines, and stakeholders without losing follow-through.
• Holds a valid Dex Management Group Manager Certification (DEX-MGM) in the Sales & Customer Success domain.

Preferred qualifications

• Agency, studio, consulting, or other multi-client experience.
• Experience with project-management, CRM, estimating, or account-management systems.
• Experience supporting budgets, scopes, change requests, or account reporting.
