Job Summary
We are looking for a driven and personable Account Manager to join our growing team in the UAE. You will wear two hats with equal confidence: nurturing and growing our existing client accounts, and identifying, pitching, and closing new business across the UAE and wider GCC. You will report directly to the President and act as the bridge between our clients and our creative team. If you love building relationships as much as closing deals, this role was made for you.
