Account Manager (Social Media)

We're on the hunt for our next superstar Account Manager to join our lively team in Great Portland Street (and at home...), working across a number of exciting clients. You will be reporting to the Head of Operations.

We're an award-winning Social Media agency based in the UK, that work with brands such as Virgin, Virgin Red, Mattel Toys (including Scrabble, Barbie and Thomas the Tank Engine), Linda McCartney Foods, Lindt Chocolate, Sixt Car Rental, The British Heart Foundation, Avanti West Coast Trains, Toyota and the Royal British Legion, amongst others.

Our team is a friendly mix of Strategists, Creatives, Account Managers, Media Planners and Buyers - all with one goal: creating work that wins people's time on social media, in the most exciting ways possible.

Sound good? read on!

 

 As an  Account Manager at Cubaka, you will be:

  • A self-starter: You have an entrepreneurial attitude to work, enjoy running your own projects, finding solutions to challenges when they crop up and pulling in the right people to create the best result.

  • Creative Organiser: You've got experience managing the creative team, and running a variety of creative projects - such as productions, studio shoots and in-house creative assets. Delivering social videos, graphics, statics, animation - you name, we do it! You'll be responsible for organising all of it.

  • Client Service King/Queen: Build relationships with clients, and be their 'go-to' person that they trust implicitly to develop their projects.

  • Team & Time Management Pro: Manage the delivery of social media campaigns and content plans, from start to finish, working with colleagues from across the business to deliver on time, on budget and to client expectations.

  • A stickler for budget tracking: The sexy part of any Account Managers role, I think you'll agree. You'll pull together a scope of work, presenting a budget proposal, and keeping a track of the accounts finances as the work rolls out.

  • Social Media Expert: Knowledgeable in all things social and digital marketing. You know your Instagram Stories from your TikTok trending sounds, can rattle off examples of social best practice and have a point of view on the latest campaigns.

 You will bring:

  • 2+ Years experience in a client-facing agency role managing social and digital campaigns for well-known brands.

  • An understanding of best practice client servicing, client management, expectation setting, communication and correspondence.

  • Experience managing timelines, estimates, budgets and invoices.

  • Passion for, and knowledge of, all things social and digital marketing.

 And in return, Cubaka offers:

  • Unlimited holiday per annum

  • Learning and Development budget (up to £500 / person)

  • Auto-enrolment pension (up to 8% contribution)

  • Child care vouchers

  • Regular socials and team-building sessions

  • Free breakfast, fruit and snacks (including ice lollies!)

  • Perkbox

  • Salary with annual review, and quarterly performance reviews

  • Choice of company Apple MacBook Pro or PC

  • Hybrid office working (approx 2 days in the office, 3 days at home - flexible)

 Cubaka and Brandwidth recognise that managing diversity is a continuous process of improvement and not a one-off initiative. Therefore, we develop and review our diversity strategy on an annual basis to support the achievement of business goals, including ways of addressing the diverse needs of our clients. 

Cubaka and Brandwidth take pride in keeping up to date with employment law and best practice when promoting equal opportunities and ensuring a diverse workforce.
