This role is focused on the management, retainment, and growth of client engagements by strategizing and managing the continuous improvement of our digital marketing tactics. This includes organic search, paid search, email marketing, social media, brand awareness and website management; along with website optimization and management with the help of a production staff. The Account Manager helps their clients with a 360-view of their business goals and can introduce complementary digital services from our partners if needed.

Candidates with minimal agency experience (including internships and bootcamps) are encouraged to apply as Junior Account Managers, who will learn the ropes under the supervision of a Senior Account Manager, and build a career path at FatCat.

Candidates who wish to be considered for Senior Account Manager positions (which include training and supervising Junior Account Managers, in addition to managing client accounts) must have 2+ years of experience in digital marketing and/or client-facing roles.

In this job, you will:
