Job Description :

Hello. We are Havas Host.

If you are reading this, you are interested in becoming a Digital Account Director with us.

Before we get into the nitty gritty of what we think your role is all about, we want you to know how we roll, cos it’s how we expect you to roll too.

We’re a beautifully, brilliantly varied bunch. That’s what makes this place so interesting. But no matter who you are or what you’re into, at Havas Host we all live by one philosophy: UNUSUAL WORKS. It’s a philosophy that analyses the usual, identifies what isn’t working to find the unusual approaches that will benefit our clients, our creative work, and our careers. Because doing the usual is only going to place in the sea of sameness alongside everyone else.

We’ll start with the important stuff – Havas’s People Perks:

Flexible WorkSchedule: At Havas, we offer a flexible work arrangement with three days in the office and remote work on Mondays and Fridays.
Summer Fridays:During the summer, we finish early at 3 pm on Fridays so you can enjoy more of the weekend
Inclusive PeoplePolicies: We support our employees with various leave options, including birthday leave, wedding leave, two days for volunteering, Hava-Rest Day, and many more perks, including industry-leading parental leave.

What we look for in brilliant Digital Account Director at Havas Host

You can (and every now and then) do everything a Senior Account Manager can, AND

You have a breadth of experience across digitally focused projects, including building websites, CX and Customer Journey projects, UX optimization, UI design, and are comfortable working with our data science team to shape CRM recommendations.
You contribute to shaping our Client Indispensability Plan every 12 months alongside our GADs which outlines the our goals and objectives for that client.
You have an intimate understanding of our contract and scope of work and what we are being tasked with delivering.
You ensure the workflow plan is being updated weekly and accurately and you are in frequent contact with your Clients, proactively driving future planning to ensure we have great visibility to incoming workload.
You have great experience in managing a team (to acct manager level), you provide anyone who works with you a monthly check in session, you mentor and develop them thoughtfully and proactively, and you successfully complete their performance review. Your team all have KPIs.
You have strong strategic and analytic skills – you are very good at developing a sound strategic argument and presenting it, verbally and in a deck.
The internal team respect you and trust you – you have a proven ability to sell breakthrough output.
You lead meetings and can handle any situation and bring it round to a good outcome.
You are a strong partner to the planner on the business and are as capable as they are in developing a strategic point of view.
You are focused on effectiveness and ensure, alongside your planner, that there is a dashboard on your business which is reviewed regularly.
You proactively make considered suggestions about ways to improve both our business and your clients business.
You are a highly persuasive, and a consummate presenter. You advocate for our output rather than ‘fight’ for it.
You’re also a total boss when it comes to growing your client’s business, by running a tight ship, building robust relationships, producing results driven, creatively inspiring work and finding opportunities by knowing their business and their problems inside out.

This is how you’ll be assessed each year, and in your monthly catch ups with your manager.
