 Positioned between the Client Strategy Directorand Client Coordinator, the Client Manager owns timelines, workflows, dependencies, and communication cadences.

Clients rely on the Client Manager to make the work run smoothly and to proactively address issues before they escalate. 

Ideally, this person will have 2-3 years media experience at an agency, experience with RFPing vendors, vendor comms, and media best practices.

• Manage deliverables across campaigns and initiatives, ensuring timelines, scopes, and dependencies are clearly defined and met.

• Translate channel strategies and media plans into clear action steps for internal activation and analytics teams.
• Monitor campaign launches, pacing, and delivery milestones to ensure SLAs and quality standards are consistently met.

• Partner closely with Client Strategy Leads to support planning cycles, QBR preparation, and ongoing client communications.
• Maintain clear, timely client communications, summarizing progress, next steps, and key considerations with confidence and accuracy.
• Mentor Client Coordinators by providing guidance on workflows, client communication, and quality standards.
• Agency background with digital media planning experience
• Comfortable working across channels and partnering with cross-functional teams
