Jobs

Account Director

Working in account management at Walrus is the exact opposite of working in the account department of a big agency. You will be treated as an equal by the creative department, you will be asked to use your mind, you will be asked to think strategically. Your insights will be sought out and valued. Your clients will rely on you for insights and direction; and the agency will rely on you for the same things. In an extremely flat management structure you will be instrumental in ensuring that great business-driving ideas make it into the world. You will be given all the responsibility you can handle. You will sing karaoke.
