Your excellent communication skills, organisational skills, ability to manage deadlines and attention to detail will set you apart from other applicants. A contagiously energetic personality is important; we are seeking a hardworking, diligent, and disciplined marketing professional. You will also love to have fun along the way!
More specifically, you will have:
- Minimum of 2-3 years’ experience in agency Account Management – including the execution of marketing communications (i.e. Content, Advertising, Sponsorship, Events) from brief to production delivery
- Experience in key stakeholder management, including liaising with clients, internal teams and external agencies/suppliers
- Experience managing budgets and project timelines
- Strong project management skills, including process and procedures (e.g. critical paths, project plans)
