As Senior Account manager, you will play a core role delivering our Performance with Integrity ambition across OMD's clients. You will be at the center of creating market leading ideas for our clients. You will be equally competent in digital and traditional media channel. You will challenge and develop your direct reports to enable them to be the best they can be.
It's an offline role for the client, but the benefit of being at OMD is that there is so much focus and training in the digital, data and tech space, that there is ample opportunity to continue to develop and grow in that space with different agency initiatives you can get involved in, it's actually the best of both worlds! Qantas might get us to do more digital in the future, we don't now - it's just that at this point in time, it's not a client requirement.
