The Role We’re hiring an Account Executive to win new business while also managing a small group of client accounts. About 75% of your time will go to prospecting, pitching and closing new clients.

Turn performance data (frequency, CPP, ROAS) into business recommendations clients can act on
Find upsell and cross-sell opportunities that solve real client problems
Keep projects on track in Monday.com, and step in with a plan when an account goes off course
