Job description

We’re looking for a senior marketer with experience leading execution across most core areas of the modern marketing stack (email, content, SEO, paid media, and/or HubSpot & RevOps), paired with strong client-facing experience and project management skills. This role is ideal for someone who wants to deepen their ability to lead delivery, manage clients, and coordinate teams while driving measurable results. We’re looking for a doer with leadership potential.

Overview

Tired of being the “middle person” between clients and internal teams, with no real ownership over outcomes?

At ProperExpression, our Senior Account Strategists are execution leaders, not meeting runners. This role sits at the center of client delivery – translating strategy into action, leading project managers and specialists, and owning the quality, results, and momentum of client work. It’s a senior, client-facing delivery role for marketers who understand how modern marketing works in the real world.

If you enjoy working directly with clients, coordinating complex marketing programs, and holding work to a high bar across channels – we would be delighted to meet you!

About ProperExpression

ProperExpression is a fully-remote boutique growth marketing agency focused on the B2B SaaS and Financial Services industries. We partner with ambitious clients to build predictable, scalable growth engines across channels, including SEO, content, paid media, email, and RevOps.

We are a HubSpot Platinum Partner and have been recognized by Clutch and Excellence.com as a top-performing agency. Despite being a relatively young agency, we’re growing quickly and intentionally, and building the next phase of the firm with people who want real ownership, real impact, and room to grow.

We also laugh a lot, don't take ourselves too seriously and try to make any excuse to eat good food - sharing food experiences has become a bit of an internal culture with life of its own.

The Role (What You’ll Actually Do)

As a Senior Account Strategist, you will lead account teams made up of channel specialists (PPC, SEO, creative, copy, web dev etc.) and project managers to deliver results and ROI for our clients.

You will be expected to:

• Collaborate on strategy with the Account Director and own execution
• Translate strategy into action, leading an execution team comprised of channel specialists (PPC, SEO, Email, RevOps, Content Writers, etc.) and a project manager
• Lead day-to-day client delivery and communication
• Ensure work is executed at a high standard across channels
• Monitor performance and proactively surface insights, risks, and opportunities
• Be accountable for client results, retention, and delivery quality

Key Objectives

Success in this role is based on the following factors, in order of importance:

• Client retention: Retain clients by consistently delivering value, earning trust, and maintaining momentum.
• Client results: Drive measurable results through high-quality execution and ongoing optimization.
• Productivity: Deliver work efficiently by managing scope, team utilization and your own time.

Who This Role Is For

This role is ideal for a mid-career agency marketer who:

• Enjoys managing ongoing client relationships
• Is highly organized and delivery-oriented
• Is comfortable leading client meetings and explaining results
• Can coordinate complex workstreams without micromanagement
• Wants to grow into a Account Director or VP-level role over time

You enjoy being “at the tip of the spear” on accounts – close to the work, close to the client, and accountable for outcomes.
