Account Manager, Emerging Accounts

EMARKETER is a subsidiary of Axel Springer SE, a family‑owned transatlantic media company headquartered in Berlin and New York.

We are hiring an Account Manager, Emerging Accounts to join our Account Management team at EMARKETER.

The Role and Team
EMARKETER is hiring an Account Manager to oversee a high‑volume, automation‑only territory of ~137 accounts valued at ~$2M in ARR. This role is designed for someone who moves quickly, thinks in systems, and thrives managing scale through automation while still driving strong commercial outcomes.

The Account Manager will manage a diverse portfolio spanning government, higher education, financial services, media, and B2B organizations. The territory includes a long tail of small‑to‑mid‑sized customers alongside a meaningful concentration of institutional accounts, all supported primarily through scalable, automated workflows rather than traditional high‑touch engagement.

This is a hybrid role based out of our New York City office, with regular in‑office expectations.

Applicants must be authorized to work in the United States without the need for visa sponsorship, now or in the future. Candidates must be within commuting distance of our New York City office. Relocation assistance is not available.
