What We’re Looking For




We are seeking a highly motivated Account Director to join our Account Management team and serve as the digital transformation lead and trusted strategic partner for enterprise clients across commercial and public sectors. You will own multi-year roadmaps, value realization, executive alignment, and account growth through renewals, upsell, cross-sell, new solution adoption, and expanded services.


You’ll lead strategic account management by building executive relationships, managing account plans and forecasts, leading client conversations, and shaping solutions through discovery, scoping, proposals, SOWs, RFPs, pricing, and negotiations. You’ll also partner with PMO, Delivery, and Sales to align priorities, manage risks, resolve challenges, and support successful project delivery on time and within budget.




The ideal candidate has agency account-management experience, strong relationship and project-management skills, executive presence, and a proactive, commercially minded approach. Experience with Adobe Experience Cloud, AEM, Adobe Commerce, Acquia, or Drupal is strongly preferred. This role carries individual sales and account-growth targets, requires high autonomy, and includes mentoring junior team members and supporting other duties as assigned.




Full-time remote is available nationally. Our Connected Workplace Program gives you the option to choose a remote, hybrid, or in-office workspace (in Ontario, Canada preferred for in-person connection from time to time)
