Assistant Account Manager / Account Manager

at  GRID PRIVATE LIMITED

We’re looking for a full-time Assistant Account Manager/Account Manager to complement the team. You’ll get to work on a variety of projects, notably events, some integrated campaigns, and the occasional print collateral.

Attributes you should possess:

• Curious - Need we say more?
• Resourceful - We’re a small team that punches above our collective weight. How do we do that? By looking for ways beyond our abilities to solve our clients’ problems
• Detailed - Misplacing a decimal point can mean a double-digit loss. Or not. But we don’t do risky business. So, crunch the numbers, but with the utmost care
• Critical - Google may be our best friend and ChatGPT our newest obsession, but mindless research rears its ugly head when clients call us out for presenting the wrong information. That’s why critical thinking is, well, critical
• Articulate - You’ll be meeting clients, current and new, to take briefs and even present our proposals. So, knowing your material and getting your points across are both equally important
• Versatile - Our clients span the familiar to the esoteric. You must be willing to make the effort to understand and distil client briefs to our creative team
• Agile - The only constant is change. And. Boy. Is. It. Relentless. You must be able to manage client expectations and juggle multiple production deadlines, sometimes with a short turnaround
• Informed - You don’t always need to keep your finger on the pulse, but knowing macro trends can be a lifesaver for clients who come to us in a daze

Yes, the list above is in order of importance. Perfection doesn’t exist, so we don’t expect you to possess every single attribute. Go through the list again to maximise your strengths and shore up your weaknesses during the interview.
Undeterred? Good. You’ll work closely with our team of creatives to develop proposals and report to the Account Director. Don’t worry, we don’t bite. At least not more than we can chew.
Qualifications are overrated if you don’t put them to work, so experience will be the determinative factor for this position and salary negotiations.
You should ideally have five to eight years of agency or in-house experience, and extensive industry contacts to expand our network of local and regional partners, which ranges from video production houses to talent agencies and printers.

Have more skills or experience to show off? You’ll especially impress us with:

• Working experience in managing events and/or activations
• Working experience in managing social media campaigns

Still up for a challenge? Then write in to us with your expected salary. This is an on-site role with discretionary work from home privileges, unless you provide compelling reasons to do so on a regular basis.
Shortlisted applicants will be required to fill up a simple questionnaire before an interview is scheduled.
Those #agencylife memes are real. But you won’t be alone. Let’s laugh until we cry while creating some awesome work together
