Overview
We’re looking for a Senior Account Manager (SAM) who can lead the charge on brand identity and brand activation projects. You’ll be the go-to partner for our clients from strategy through to execution, steering strategy, driving delivery, and keeping the work sharp, on time, and unforgettable.
As a SAM, you’ll balance strategic thinking with hands-on project management. You’ll translate business and cultural insights into creative opportunities, guide multidisciplinary teams, and ensure projects land with precision—whether developing a new brand identity or bringing a campaign to life through an activation.
Responsibilities
- Own the relationship — be the trusted voice clients turn to.
- Lead the work — from new brand worlds to activations that demand attention.
- Keep it moving — run timelines, budgets, and teams with precision.
- Push the thinking — bring insights that make creative braver and smarter.
- Grow the account — spot opportunities to scale identities and amplify activations.
- Elevate the team — mentor juniors, inspire peers, and keep collaboration flowing.
- Act as the primary point of contact for clients on brand identity and activation projects.
- Build and nurture strong, trust-based client relationships.
- Anticipate client needs and position HY.AM as a strategic partner, not just an executional agency.
- Lead the end-to-end delivery of projects including brand identities, campaigns, and brand activations.
- Translate client briefs into clear, actionable internal direction.
- Oversee timelines, budgets, and resources across multiple projects.
- Ensure all outputs meet HY.AM’s standards for creative quality and cultural relevance.
- Work closely with Strategy, Creative, and Production teams to connect client objectives with bold creative solutions.
- Provide context and insights that help teams deliver brand identities and activations with impact.
- Contribute to workshops, presentations, and pitches with strategic and commercial input.
- Manage account budgets and profitability.
- Identify growth opportunities within existing accounts, from expanding identity rollouts to scaling activations.
- Support in new business opportunities, contributing to proposals and pitches.
- Mentor and guide Account Executives/Managers on client service and project delivery.
- Foster collaboration and positive energy within the team, balancing client needs with creative ambition.
Qualifications
- 4–6 years of account management experience in a creative/brand/design agency.
- Proven experience managing brand identity and/or brand activation projects end-to-end.
- Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.
- Excellent communication and presentation abilities—confident in client-facing moments.
- A commercial mindset: comfortable with budgets, scopes, and growth opportunities.
- Curiosity for culture and love for brand, design, and storytelling.
- Fluent in English and German (spoken and written).
