Account Director

RAKSUL is hiring an Account Director for Novacell's Growth Partner division, its fast-growing advertising agency business. Unlike traditional agency sales, the role works on the upstream of marketing, speaks with client executives and takes responsibility for winning and expanding accounts, with a longer-term path to head the agency business or join management.

Duties include being the front contact for advertising clients, leading the sales organization as director, leading communication strategy and creative planning, TV and web media planning, using marketing data, and preparing new proposals for important clients, such as large competitive pitches.

Applicants need five or more years of corporate sales at a general or web agency, experience with new proposals such as competitive pitches (ten or more a year), and experience planning and directing marketing strategy and upstream design. Team management, digital marketing planning and mass-media planning experience are preferred.
