About the Role

Senior Account Manager is a key support role within our Client Services Department, designed for someone with strong online fundraising and/or digital persuasion knowledge and cross-platform digital strategy. This role is a great fit for someone who is ready to grow into full account ownership.

You’ll work closely with senior leadership to help manage day-to-day coordination, client communications, and project tracking across a small portfolio of accounts. You’ll learn our client service standards and SOPs inside and out, supporting the department on projects while developing the skills to lead accounts independently over time.

This is a great fit for someone who’s been in a leading digital strategy role at an organization or on a campaign — and is ready to learn the ropes of client-facing account management.
