Halifax, Canada VERB Interactive Inc. Full time

VERB is a digital marketing and technology agency located in downtown Halifax, Nova Scotia. Our global clients offer the opportunity to work and collaborate with some of the world’s biggest destinations, resorts, and travel brands—and with our employee travel credit, it’s easy to experience them for yourself. We take a balanced approach to work/life and have fun at the office– or wherever we happen to be working. We are passionate about exceeding expectations and we thrive on jobs other agencies might find too big, or too difficult, or too fast.

Sound good? Great, here’s who we’re looking for…

The Account Director acts as the key point of contact between high-profile clients and the agency. They nurture and grow client relationships and are responsible for being a source of ongoing leadership, strategy, and collaboration with VERB internal teams.

What You Will Do

  • Independently manage client relationships and projects, proactively offering sound solutions to issues.
  • Identify and echo clients’ business needs, ensuring that every product and deliverable is aligned and reflective of their needs.
  • Identify opportunities to grow accounts by proposing and introducing new solutions and services based on your clients’ needs.
  • Maintain a working knowledge of client brand standards and assets.
  • Make strategic and proactive recommendations to clients, ensuring proper resource planning to meet deadlines.
  • Foster and nurture a positive relationship with clients, both internal and external, through frequent, professional, and strategic communication.
  • Be responsible for the overall project timeline, with the support of Account Coordinators and Project Managers.
  • Be responsible for overall project budgets and work to find efficiencies and keep projects within scope.
  • Uphold day to day expectations for general project management (ensuring daily stand ups, Jira follow up, testing when required, etc.).
  • Keep senior management informed of project progress, ensuring that potential issues affecting client services and projects are communicated early and resolved.
  • Collaborate with all relevant VERB departments, engaging subject matter experts on projects and new initiatives.
  • Provide mentorship and leadership to Accounts team members, including assisting with onboarding as required.
  • Own the final quality control for all client-facing deliverables.
  • Identify process improvements within the organization and work with senior management to develop and implement improvements across projects.
  • Be a champion for positive employee morale by encouraging and energizing the wider VERB team.

Minimum Requirements

  • 5+ years of relevant experience.
  • Post-secondary education in marketing, advertising, business, communications, public relations, or equivalent experience.
  • Demonstrated ability to clearly and confidently present to clients and internal management.
  • Experience managing multiple, simultaneous projects involving cross functional teams with budget, schedule, and resourcing constraints.
  • Have a general understanding of process and steps involved with:
    • Website design and development.
    • UX testing and reporting.
    • Analytics Measurement Plans and Audits (GA and SEO).

Our benefits are anything but basic, with vacation time available on day one (not to mention an extra bonus week during the holidays), an annual travel credit (for non-work related travel), and free office snacks and drinks to keep you energized when you’re around.

In addition, we offer the following and are consistently looking for new ways to enhance the benefits we offer to our team:

  • 100% premium share option for Group Health Insurance (medical, dental, vision), with a health spending account to top up your claims.
  • A wellness spending account.
  • Company matching RRSP program.
  • Top up for Parental/Pregnancy leave.
  • Remote and flexible work arrangements.
  • Transit and fitness discounts.
  • Recreational sports teams.
  • Learning and development opportunities with a multitude of resources.
  • Internal recognition programs.
