Job Description:

We’re working with a fast-scaling, international eCommerce and digital advertising agency that supports a diverse portfolio of well-known consumer brands across multiple online retail platforms. They're now hiring a strategic and people-focused Account Director to drive growth, lead performance, and steer innovation across one of their key client partnerships.

? The Opportunity

As Account Director, you’ll lead two experienced Account Managers and collaborate closely with advertising specialists, creatives, and cross-functional teams across Europe. This is a dynamic role where no two days are the same — you’ll shape client strategy, own full-funnel media planning, and be a trusted voice in high-level conversations around growth, budget, and performance.

Your mission: elevate client success and unlock their full brand potential through creative thinking, commercial insight, and world-class campaign execution.

? What You’ll Be Doing

• Leading day-to-day relationships with a flagship client account
• Developing and presenting strategic media plans using hard data, customer insights, and performance metrics
• Leading QBRs, budget reviews, and campaign performance deep dives
• Partnering with internal teams (Finance, Business Development, L&D, and Senior Leadership) to ensure full alignment on performance, invoicing, and team development
• Coaching and mentoring your team — driving accountability, performance, and growth
• Identifying and solving gaps in training and execution, collaborating with L&D to scale departmental capabilities
• Driving revenue growth, expanding relationships, and delivering exceptional client value

What We’re Looking For

• Strong knowledge of Amazon Advertising — both PPC and DSP (AMC experience a big plus)
• Proven experience mentoring and developing high-performing teams
• Commercially minded and confident presenting to senior stakeholders
• Comfortable making decisions without having the full picture — agile, adaptable, and quick-thinking
• Strong analytical skills with a deep understanding of how data informs performance
• Excellent project and client management capabilities, with attention to detail across invoicing, CRM, and media execution
• Fluent English required. European languages (French, German, Spanish, Italian) are a bonus

Please note that if you are NOT a passport holder of the country for the vacancy you might need a work permit. Check our Blog for more information.
