Key Responsibilities
Clever Punch's Account Managers act as project managers for our clients. Each client's scope of work has an array of weekly and monthly tasks relating to their over-arching goals — your job is to take the reins on them. Projects include copywriting, graphic design, email campaigns, social media management, website design and updates, arranging photoshoots, analytics, and more.
Account Managers have a sharp eye for strong design and good aesthetics. That doesn’t mean you have to be an advanced designer — but at a bare minimum, you have to know when something looks good.
We manage projects with integrity and professionalism and help meet deadlines to the best of our ability. The role communicates with clients directly (giving updates or gaining approval) and working with freelancers, delegating and approving their work.
Our team has varying supportive roles — including freelancers, interns, and marketing assistants — to help Account Managers fulfill the client's work.
