Introduction
We’re looking for an experienced Senior Account Manager to lead design projects for our global clients. This position will communicate with our West Coast (US) and UK teams, as such we’re looking to hire someone in Eastern Time.
Client Manager Overview
Wunderdogs is an independent creative agency with a growing (15+) distributed team across the U.S. and Europe. We provide beginning-to-end strategy, design and production services to forward thinking brands in the technology space, from startups to established companies.
From re-brands to website builds, no two Wunderdogs projects are the same: if you’re a creative administrator who enjoys a challenge, the diverse nature of our work is sure to keep you on your toes.
Our client services team are the face of the business. We’re looking for an expert communicator to build and nurture client relationships with a view to growing revenue, and a detail obsessed project manager who can deliver the exemplary level of service our clients have come to expect from their design partner.

- Maintain accurate, timely, and complete documentation for deals, client relationships, and projects.
We’re looking for someone who does not shy away from a challenge and is comfortable working to tight deadlines when required. We expect all Wunderdogs managers to be confident owning projects end-to-end, which includes presenting work to and taking questions from clients, therefore the ability to understand and interpret client needs correctly is vital.
You will be joining us during an exciting time and will be working on multiple projects simultaneously, often for different clients.
