• Oversee and support Client Services Executives, setting priorities and ensuring high-quality output

• Track budgets and monitor spend across campaigns

• Review creator selections and content to ensure quality and alignment

• Support (and occasionally lead) client communications and meetings

• Oversee reporting, ensuring data is accurate and insights are clear and actionable

• Identify opportunities to improve processes and ways of working

Here’s what we’re looking for:

• 3+ years of experience in an agency, brand, or digital marketing environment

• Experience managing or mentoring junior team members

• Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple campaigns simultaneously

• Confident communicator with experience supporting or leading client interactions

• Strong attention to detail, particularly across budgets, timelines, and content quality

• A solid understanding of the social media and creator landscape, especially within DACH

• A clear appreciation for creative excellence and high-quality content

• Experience leveraging AI tools or emerging technologies to improve workflows, efficiency, or campaign performance

• A proactive, solution-oriented mindset with a strong sense of ownership

• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, collaborative environment
