CoCreativ brings together Industrial Color, Smashbox Studios and Globaledit to support brands across the content creation process, from studios and production through post-production, AI, e-commerce and content workflow technology.
About the Role
We are looking for an Account Director focused on growing existing client relationships across CoCreativ.
This is not traditional day-to-day account management, and it is not pure new-business sales.
You will look across clients already working with Industrial Color, Smashbox Studios and Globaledit, identify where there is additional opportunity, build the right relationships and connect clients with the people and capabilities that can help them.
We already work with an incredible roster of brands, agencies and creative teams. This role is focused on making those relationships broader and more valuable.
What You’ll Do
- Identify existing clients with meaningful growth potential.
- Build relationships across client teams and expand beyond a single point of contact.
- Understand what clients use us for today and where other CoCreativ capabilities may be relevant.
- Stay close to successful projects and create thoughtful opportunities for follow-up.
- Partner with business unit leaders to uncover whitespace and develop account-growth strategies.
- Re-engage relationships that have slowed or gone quiet.
- Create introductions across Industrial Color, Smashbox Studios and Globaledit.
- Maintain clear account priorities, opportunities and next steps.
- Represent CoCreativ in client meetings, events, dinners and industry settings.
- Drive measurable incremental revenue across the existing client base.
What We’re Looking For
- Experience in creative production, advertising, content, studios, photography, post-production, creative technology or a related environment.
- Strong client instincts and the ability to build trust naturally.
- Enough production fluency to speak credibly with clients and internal teams.
- Commercial curiosity and the ability to spot opportunity.
- Comfort working across teams without needing to own every relationship or project.
- Strong organization and follow-through across multiple accounts.
- A proactive, collaborative and low-ego approach.
- Comfort being accountable for revenue growth.
You may come from account management, client services, production, business development, artist or photographer representation, a creative agency, production company or studio. We are intentionally open to different backgrounds.
Requirements
- 5+ years of experience in account management, client services, business development, sales, or a related client-facing role.
- A demonstrated track record of growing existing client relationships and revenue.
- Experience within a creative agency, production company, studio, creative technology business, or related creative-services environment.
- Strong relationship-building skills paired with a commercial, growth-oriented mindset.
- Ability to operate credibly with senior creative, production, marketing, procurement, and business leaders.
- Strong understanding of creative production and curiosity about AI and emerging creative technology.
- A proactive, resourceful approach and comfort operating without a fully built playbook.
- Ability to influence and drive action across teams you do not directly manage.
- Strong presentation, communication, and commercial skills.
- Working proficiency with Salesforce.
- Willingness to travel and attend occasional client dinners and evening events.
What Success Looks Like
Our strongest client relationships become broader, more connected and more valuable. Clients understand more of what CoCreativ can do for them, strong projects lead to deeper relationships, and those relationships translate into meaningful incremental revenue.
Benefits
The anticipated base salary range for this role is $120,000–$140,000 annually. This position is also expected to participate in a variable incentive/commission plan tied to account growth. The structure is currently being finalized, and additional details will be shared during the interview process.
Where an offer falls within the base salary range will depend on factors including the labor market, internal equity, budget, work location, and the candidate’s experience and skills relative to the requirements of the role.
As a general guide:
- Closer to $120K: Strong relevant industry and client-facing experience with the right commercial instincts, but less experience independently driving account growth.
- Middle of the range: Demonstrated experience identifying opportunities, expanding existing relationships and working across stakeholders.
- Closer to $140K: A strong track record of independently growing significant client relationships and translating those opportunities into meaningful revenue.
We are intentionally open to different experience levels and backgrounds, so we encourage you to apply even if your path is not a traditional Account Director one.
