About the role:
As Account Executive, you sit at the centre of the in-house team — connecting clients, media partners, and creative colleagues across every project.

Take meeting notes and distribute clear action points to the relevant stakeholders after each client or team session
Coordinate and schedule meetings with the right people at the right time
Manage billing processes including creating purchase orders, estimates, and sales orders; track hours and support budget management in the project management system
Stay informed on industry trends and innovations; bring relevant insights to the team and clients
Support the Account Manager and Account Director on projects as needed, stepping in wherever the team needs you
What you need to be great in this role:
Experience in an account coordination, junior project management, or similar role within an advertising agency or in-house creative team
Hands-on experience delivering print and digital creative projects, with a solid understanding of digital and social channels
Confidence communicating with clients and presenting information clearly in a professional setting
Experience managing billing detail, tracking project hours, and supporting project budget administration
Strong organisational skills and attention to detail across fast-moving, multi-stakeholder projects
A proactive working style — able to take direction and take initiative in equal measure
Proficiency with Gen AI tools relevant to account and project management work
Experience building personal workflows to improve efficiency and output quality
Agentic approach to project coordination: able to break complex tasks into clear steps and identify the most effective path forward
Ability to critically evaluate AI outputs and apply sound human judgment
