Account Manager - Experiential & Brand Activations

Account Manager – Experiential & Brand Activations

Dublin | Remote-first | Agency environment

This role is for someone who thrives at the intersection of clients, creativity and commercial reality.

You’ll be the trusted partner to global clients — listening carefully, challenging thoughtfully, and translating ambition into activations that land on time, on budget, and at a very high standard. Internally, you’ll guide teams and partners with clarity and confidence. Externally, you’ll be the calm, credible face clients rely on.

If you’ve built your career inside an experiential, events or marketing agency and enjoy owning relationships end-to-end, this will feel familiar — and a step forward.

What you’ll be doing

• Acting as the senior point of contact for a portfolio of clients
• Building deep, long-term relationships based on trust, delivery and commercial insight
• Translating client objectives into clear briefs, scopes and statements of work
• Leading agency responses to new briefs and opportunities
• Partnering with internal teams and suppliers to deliver complex, multi-layered programmes
• Managing budgets, approvals and margin with confidence — without damaging the relationship
• Representing the client internally and the agency externally, at all stages of delivery

Qualifications

3+ years’ experience managing accounts in an experiential, events or marketing agency

Required Skills

• A natural client operator — credible, sociable and comfortable with senior stakeholders
• Strong commercial instincts: budgets, costings and negotiations don’t faze you
• Highly organised, with exceptional attention to detail
• Confident working in fast-paced, deadline-driven environments
• Someone who enjoys ownership and is motivated by growth — personally and commercially

Why this role stands out

• High-profile, creative client work without unnecessary bureaucracy
• Genuine autonomy and trust — outcomes matter more than optics
• Remote-first working with flexibility built in
• A growing agency environment where strong performers are noticed and backed

This role suits someone who enjoys being in the room, on the call, and at the centre of the relationship — not hiding behind decks or task lists.
