Who We're Looking For
We’re looking for a high-impact, client-facing Account Manager to serve as the dedicated advocate and primary point of contact for a portfolio of C-4 Analytics' key clients. This isn’t a passive coordination role; it’s a proactive, holistic management position where you take full ownership of translating complex business objectives into winning digital marketing programs. You’ll be expected to master our core services and articulate their value with authority, acting as the strategic bridge between client goals and technical execution. You’ll operate at the center of the action, driving comprehensive strategies and managing high-stakes campaign tasks across every internal department—from Paid Search and Creative to Content, Local, and Social Media. This role requires a "do-the-work" mentality to ensure every moving part is synchronized and every campaign is delivered with precision. If you’re a natural relationship-builder who thrives on connecting the dots between client vision and digital performance, you’ll do well here.
A Day in the Life Portfolio & Relationship Management: Serve as the primary advocate and day-to-day contact for a portfolio of 12+ rooftops, proactively managing client satisfaction and performance to ensure maximum retention.
Strategic Execution & Optimization: Own the full campaign lifecycle—from initial strategy and pitch to setup and execution—across Paid Search, Social, and Web, while conducting regular platform checks to ensure optimal performance.
Data Analysis & Reporting: Utilize Google Analytics and Google Ads to analyze traffic, pitch optimizations, and deliver comprehensive monthly reports that translate complex data into compelling narratives.
Cross-Functional & Third-Party Coordination: Lead internal teams (Creative, Content, Paid Search) and external vendors to ensure timely implementation of strategies and rigorous task tracking within JIRA.
Communication & Presentation: Lead weekly client update meetings and maintain professional, timely communication to keep stakeholders informed on progress and campaign health.
Compliance & Quality Control: Ensure all marketing assets meet brand standards, maintain regulatory compliance, and receive formal client approval prior to launch.
Operational Agility: Handle additional duties as assigned and travel as necessary to support client needs and business objectives.
