The Role in Brief:

Senior Account Manager, Hybrid

With 40% year‑on‑year growth, we are still in our high‑growth phase. But we've only just started. We entered the US market last summer and have since secured strategic partnerships with prestigious Higher Education colleges across the country. We currently have a rare opportunity to join Hybrid as a Senior Account Manager, where you'll play a pivotal role in delivering bespoke and complex digital campaigns.

We are looking to hire a strong digital‑savvy Senior Account Manager with a deep understanding of media buying strategies and campaigns to help us meet and exceed specific client brand, engagement and student recruitment goals.

You'll be leading the relationship and be responsible for the success of our flagship US strategic client. As the Senior Account Manager, you will work with our dedicated teams to deliver world class campaigns across paid media (PPC, paid social, display, programmatic).

This is a unique opportunity to join a rapidly expanding media agency, advise prestigious clients in the higher education sector on their digital advertising, have a lasting impact on students furthering their education, be part of a global business that works across borders, and be an integral part of Hybrid’s expansion in the US in a strategically core role.

This hire may be based in Philadelphia, PA, Richmond, VA, or Washington, D.C. During the first three months, you’ll work in‑office five days per week to build strong connections with the team and gain hands‑on experience.

• Fantastic attention to detail, organizational skills and a calm presence to deliver under pressure
• The ability to build long‑term relationships and shape the media and marketing strategy for our global partners

Ideal Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree preferred
• Experience managing a large portfolio of 4-8 clients with varying budgets
• Previous experience of the set‑up and implementation of paid media campaigns would be helpful; however it is not a must, in this role
• An understanding of the creative process within an agency would be beneficial
• Commitment to embracing a continual learning environment and contributing to a dynamic and welcoming culture of fairness, authenticity, and belonging in support of EAB’s mission, values, and aspiration.
