Let's introduce ourselves properly: our claim to the market is "building the agency of the future". This is not an arrogant proposition. It's a goal. Something to strive for. It's a mission we believe every agency should embrace, because we all know the advertising of tomorrow will be different from the advertising of the last decade.
And yes, technology plays an undeniable role in this revolution. Our vision of "the agency of the future" is about collaboration and integration. We don't believe in divisions between media-buying and creative work. They need to work together, way more than they are typically doing today. It's also about aligning image building marketing with performance campaigns. It's about striving for effectiveness instead of mere efficiency.
What we are looking for
We are therefore looking for an Account Manager to service the growing portfolio of A-class clients, such as Telenet, Base, ING, Mazda, VUB, Doccle, Samsung, museumPASS,... and many others. A person that builds connections with new clients and maintains strong relationships with existing ones. With a commercial feeling that allows him/her/they to see and grab opportunities when they arise.
A handraiser too, a person that radiates energy & shows ownership, and a coach in the development of colleagues. Someone that breathes our company philosophy and who searches and welcomes the opinion of experts. A person that can inspire his/her/their colleagues to keep moving as a team and who wants to help the company grow and shape its future. But most of all, someone that wants to help the clients excel and brings their voice to the agency table.
But wait a minute .. AdSomeNoise .. aren't you .. Yup, you might know us as a digital production agency (a very good one too if we might add). And although we still have a performant production team and technology is an undeniable part of our DNA, we now offer our clients services that they expect from a creative agency, with a digital twist. The AM we're looking for is someone who feels comfortable in such an agency. We expect you to bring splendid account management skills to the table.
