Senior Account Manager - Forefront Communications

open role

SENIOR ACCOUNT
MANAGER

Forefront Communications is a rapidly growing strategic marketing and communications firm — part PR, part content, part digital marketing, part creative — that’s laser-focused on propelling fintech and capital markets brands to the forefront. We work with many of the best-known firms in the industry, employing a methodology that separates our clients from the pack and drives meaningful business results. We are extremely proud of the work we do, and as a result have managed to catch the eye of others as well – last year we were named a Top Boutique PR Agency by Insider, and before that was one of six agencies named to Observer’s prestigious Financial PR Honor Roll.

We’re currently seeking an experienced, enthusiastic and motivated marcomms professional to join us in a senior account management role. Reporting into our Head of Account Management, this role will develop and oversee integrated marketing and communications campaigns and programs – directing Forefront’s media relations, content and digital teams on execution – for multiple client accounts, nearly all of whom will have highly technical businesses.

Excellent client management and communication skills are a requirement, as is a deep understanding of how modern financial market participants leverage a broad range of integrated marcomms programs such as brand, PR, content, and digital and traditional marketing to meet their business goals.

This is a full-time position that includes a full benefits package and a great work environment that balances the flexibility and productivity of remote work with the cohesiveness and collaboration that comes from being together as a team.
