We are Wave Agency.
And we’re looking for a new Account Director to support our current clients and seek out new partnerships. If you’ve honed your skills in client service or worked in-house in marketing/comms roles for several years, your CV will already stand out. But we’re looking for more. We need someone with the ambition to help lead our agency into the future, the ability to network face-to-face, to strategically enhance the offerings of the clients you work with, and the know-how to build both your own and Wave’s reputation.
If you have experience in Business Development—or even if you don’t, but you’re excited to grow those skills with us—and you believe you’ve got what it takes to help bring new opportunities to Wave, we’d love to hear from you. This role could be the perfect fit!
You’ll be seeking a long-term home in an independent agency where you can grow your career. You’ll have key influence over the agency’s direction and work with some of New Zealand’s leading businesses - all from the beautiful beachside of Mount Maunganui.
You’ll thrive in a diverse team of talented colleagues, enjoy forging connections with businesses, love the hustle, and shape beautifully simple work that delivers measurable ROI for clients.
What We Offer
You’re ready to move beyond the corporate grind. You understand that, in today’s economic climate, agency budgets are tight. But you also know that proving your value over the long term will pay dividends. We are excited about investing in your future, and to do that we want to find someone who is equally excited to invest themselves into this role and our Agency.
We offer the opportunity to fit this role into your life instead of the other way around - to make sure that the hours/days and investment you make fits your goals and provides the work/life balance you are looking for.
Last but not least - we offer a really great place to work!
