Huckleberry Branding is a creative branding, website development, and search marketing agency based in Nashville, TN.

We’re a passionate, driven team that values initiative, creative problem-solving, and genuine partnerships with our clients and each other. As we continue to grow, we’re looking for a sharp, charismatic, and experienced Account Manager to lead client relationships and ensure projects and retainers run like clockwork.

Our Core Values

As a company, we pride ourselves on being hard-working and knowledgeable, but approachable, humble, and enjoyable to be around.

We do what we say we’re going to do. We own our tasks and responsibilities, and we don’t drop the ball when the team of our clients are relying on us.

We Strive for Excellence.
We’re not perfect, but we are committed to continuous self-improvement and strive to bring our best every day.

We Exhibit a Can Do Attitude.
We love a good challenge, and we don’t wait for difficult issues to resolve themselves. We tackle challenges head on and are proactive in leading the resolution.

We’re Team Players.
We believe the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. We fuse our talents and work toward common goals in order to succeed together.

What that means in practice:

• Be solutions-oriented.
• Ask thoughtful questions.
• Own your work and your outcomes.
• Share knowledge generously.
• Keep it human.
• Stay adaptable.
• Aim to elevate.
• Treat every client like a partner.
• Comminicate clearly and kindly.

About the Role

• Translate client priorities into clearly defined internal tasks and timelines
• Leverage and manage a cross-functional team of internal and external team members to ensure timely, high-quality delivery
• Proactively identify opportunities to expand and improve client programs
• No direct copywriting, website development, or backlink-building is required. However, you will be tasked with overseeing that all content is produced to our client’s standards and delivered on time.
• Some keyword research, strategic content direction, data analysis to identify new opportunities, presenting key SEM insights to the client, and working with our SEO writers and web developers to ensure everything is executed perfectly to plan.

Experience & Key Characteristics

• 5+ years of experience in client-facing account management, preferably at a digital or search marketing agency
• Strong working knowledge of digital marketing, especially SEO and PPC, plus familiarity with WordPress, email marketing, social media, and graphic design workflows
• High attention to detail and a proactive, solution-oriented mindset
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills with a knack for reading and adapting to diverse client personalities
• Strong time management skills and a bias for action. We’re looking for someone who moves fast, overcomes roadblocks, and gets things done
• Confidence managing multiple client priorities and cross-functional teams

• Familiarity with ClickUp or similar project management tool
• Familiarity with Slack or similar communication tool
• Local to Nashville, TN
• Competitive salary based on experience
