Love social, creators, culture and great client work, but also want to work somewhere that treats you like an adult?

This could be a very good match.

We’re partnering with a seriously cool independent agency working at the intersection of social, influencers, sport, wellness and culture. They’re growing, doing some brilliant work and looking for an experienced Senior Account Manager to take ownership of a couple of high-profile consumer accounts.

It’s a senior role, but still very much hands-on. You’ll have a small team around you, plenty of autonomy and clients who will genuinely value your experience.

And if you’ve taken some time away from agency life and are thinking about making your return? Please don’t let a career break stop you applying. Great experience doesn’t suddenly expire.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll own the day-to-day relationship across two major consumer brands, alongside some smaller projects in the fitness and wellness space.

Expect a mix of:

- Influencer and creator campaigns
- Social and content
- Brand activations and events
- Talent and creator selection
- Content shoots
- Campaign reporting and insights
- Client presentations
- Mentoring a small junior account team

The clients move quickly, so we need someone who can bring some calm to the chaos. Someone who knows how to run a tight process, manage briefs and approvals, push back when scope starts wandering and keep everyone moving in the right direction.

You’ll probably have…





Agency experience is important here, ideally within a social, influencer, integrated or creative agency.

We’d particularly love to meet someone who has:

- Managed influencer/social campaigns for recognised consumer brands
- Juggled multiple clients or campaigns without losing their head
- Been the trusted senior contact clients actually want to call
- Managed scope, timelines, budgets and occasionally tricky conversations
- Supported or mentored junior team members
- A genuinely good understanding of the Australian creator and influencer landscape

Experience with regulated categories would be a bonus, but it’s certainly not the only thing we’re looking for. Why it’s worth a conversation

This is an independent agency with personality. Smart people, engaging work and none of the unnecessary layers that can make bigger agency life exhausting.

You’ll get

- Hybrid working with 2 days from home
- Genuine autonomy and trust
- Exposure to sport, creators, entertainment, fitness and consumer brands
- A supportive team without the corporate politics
- Real opportunity to progress as the agency grows
- A workplace that values life experience as much as the perfectly linear CV

You don’t need to tick every box. If you’ve got strong agency foundations, know influencer marketing and can confidently own a client relationship, I’d love to hear from you. And yes, that absolutely includes people returning to the industry after some time away.
