Overview

We are looking for a highly capable, proactive and strategically minded Senior Account Manager to support one of our flagship accounts across CRM, paid media, event activation, sales enablement and reporting. This is a diverse and fast‑paced role suited to someone who enjoys variety, is confident managing complex multi‑channel workstreams, and thrives in a collaborative, integrated team environment.

While CRM remains a core part of the role — especially managing customer journeys built through Salesforce Account Engagement in partnership with our Tech and Data teams — you will also play a key role supporting clients across paid media delivery, event support, content and creative production, and performance measurement.

You will work closely with project management, creative, media, strategy, data and UX teams to ensure smooth and efficient delivery across all channels.

• Work closely with creative, design and content teams to ensure high‑quality, on‑brand outputs.
• Ensure materials are aligned to client go‑to‑market strategies and activation plans.

Measurement, Insight & Reporting

• Support the creation of performance reports across CRM, paid media, event activity and content.
• Work with Data & Analytics to review KPIs, identify trends and surface opportunities for improvement.
• Present reporting back to clients confidently with clear narratives and actionable recommendations.

Client Relationship Management

• Build trusted day‑to‑day relationships with client stakeholders.
• Present creative work, take in feedback and provide clear updates throughout each stage of delivery.
• Work with senior team members to ensure all work aligns to wider CRM strategy, customer goals and KPIs.

The Six Helia Habits

1. Get Involved

You take ownership of outcomes rather than sticking narrowly to your role.

You willingly step in, collaborate and help drive projects forward — ensuring the work succeeds, not just your part of it.

2. Have a Voice

You speak up, contribute ideas and challenge constructively.

You bring energy and opinion to conversations, and you see being active and vocal as the default, not the exception.

3. Find a Way

You don’t get stuck on limitations — whether they’re client constraints, brief challenges or process barriers.

You think creatively, problem‑solve with optimism and look for practical ways to move things forward.

4. Be Playful

You bring curiosity, experimentation and positivity to the work.

You’re not afraid to explore, try new approaches or inject creative thinking into everyday tasks — even when deadlines are tight.

5. It Only Counts If You Make It

You turn thinking into action.

You help transform good ideas into real, tangible outcomes — moving beyond theory to delivery and results.

6. Make It Better Than It Was

You’re always looking to elevate the work.

You don’t settle for “good enough”; you ask, “Is this the best it can be?” and push for quality, craft and continual improvement.
