Job description

At Leadly, we build data-driven lead generation strategies that turn marketing spend into real pipeline and revenue. We work with ambitious brands, move quickly, test relentlessly and care deeply about the quality of our work and our relationships.

The Role

• Own and lead day-to-day relationships across a portfolio of key client accounts
• Work in partnership with an Account Executive to manage account delivery, communication and priorities
• Take full accountability for performance outcomes, retention and commercial growth
• Lead strategic performance direction across accounts, shaping testing, optimisation and scaling plans
• Lead senior stakeholder conversations, confidently presenting insight, recommendations and next steps
• Translate complex performance data into clear actions and strategic direction
• Collaborate closely with paid media, ECRM, SEO and creative teams to deliver strong, aligned outcomes

Why Join Leadly?
