Group Director, Paid Media (Client Partnership) - Remote West Coast

Group Account Directors at DEPT® lead on all the cross-functional work we deliver for a key client. We expect Group Account Directors to be experts in truly understanding the clients in their portfolio’s business, challenges, goals, and SWOT, and have established relationships with the most senior levels on the client side in order to push their team outside of the box on driving innovation/strategy. Group Account Directors represent DEPT® to our clients, adding value to relationships beyond organizational skills, doing a mixture of account management, strategic planning, and serving as the commercial lead on the business.

Group Account Directors are expected to be able to develop, negotiate, and manage scopes of work as well as support in leading new business proposals and pitches.

Candidates must have experience managing teams (directly and indirectly), complex campaigns, and high-volume retainers for brands and be calm and controlled in high-pressure situations. Equally, experience with delivering commercial success in an agency model is important. We need people who can come up with big ideas as well as lots of little ones that are framed in a solid strategy grounded in insight and ultimately deliver a tangible ROI for our clients. Most importantly, we need a leader who inspires their team and earns the respect of senior clients.
