Location: Balaclava, Melbourne
ABOUT US
We are Seeker Agency, Australia's leading events and activations agency.
Our approach is simple: Great People Doing Great Things For Great Brands.
For more than 19 years, our teams have delivered everything from large scale major events to intimate experiences, global projects and bold brand activations.
We design work that's creative, thoughtful and impactful.
Underpinning everything we do is smart strategy and a focus on results.
We understand brands and audiences and we deliver event experiences that feel authentic and meaningful.
Just as importantly, we believe great work starts with great people, supported, trusted and set up to do their best.
Seeker Agency is part of Seeker Group, alongside Solution Entertainment and FutureLabs, combining strategic brand experience, world-class entertainment and specialist production capability within one integrated, future ready group.
ABOUT THE ROLE
As Seeker Agency continues to grow, we have a rare opportunity for an experienced client and events leader to lead our Melbourne Client Services team.
Reporting to the Commercial Director, you'll lead an established team and a strong portfolio of client relationships, with responsibility for client service, account growth and the performance of Client Services in Melbourne.
This is a role for someone who knows agency life well.
You're comfortable moving between a senior client conversation, a pitch, a commercial discussion and a team 1:1.
You know how to keep things moving when the pace lifts, when to challenge a brief, and how to bring the right people together to get to a better outcome.
You'll stay close to our key clients,



understand their businesses and help the team identify where we can add more value.
You'll work alongside Creative and Production to shape strong responses, protect the thinking and make sure client objectives stay clear from brief through to delivery.
You'll also lead the Melbourne Client Services plan, aligned to our national commercial strategy, with a clear view across revenue, pipeline, forecasting and sold margin.
And you'll lead the people around you.
That means setting clear expectations, coaching and developing the team, backing good judgement and creating the conditions for people to do their best work.
