People don’t hate advertising, they hate bad advertising!
We built WeTransfer to provide an elegant experience for people who want a trustworthy and hassle-free way of transferring files. When we first decided that a platform should have non-traditional advertising, people thought we were crazy. We could have plastered our pages with annoying, intrusive banners and hit the jackpot, in the short term. But we took the long road instead, our service is now not just about sharing files, it’s about sharing experiences and creativity.
We curate and design genuinely attractive advertising to build better relationships with our users, and lasting value for our clients. This is served alongside full screen imagery from some of the world’s most exciting creative talent. By partnering with forward-thinking brands and exciting creative-minds we are able to deliver beautiful and relevant content whether it’s from brands or creators.
This user-centric, creatively driven, approach has enabled WeTransfer to build a unique digital advertising proposition. Widely considered the best brand building platform online, particularly for brands seeking to reach a professional creative audience.
This role will be responsible for nurturing and growing a portfolio of clients that have been identified as having high growth potential with WeTransfer. Although the role is based in the US, you will be working with global brands and managing the production of campaigns in multiple markets.
You will be a natural ambassador for WeTransfer’s creative values, and will work closely with both Sales and Account Directors to identify opportunities for account growth and to proactively bring these in front of our clients. You will also work productively with our creative Studio team, from designers to developers, to ensure all content produced meets WeTransfer’s high standards, as well as exceeding client expectations.
We are looking for an ambitious candidate who can handle multiple campaigns simultaneously, and is capable of maintaining oversight and structure in a fast-paced environment. You know what it takes to make a client happy and you have the charm and convincing power to get everyone on board to get the highest impact campaign live in time.
If you think beyond what's necessary, have a high intellectual curiosity and a hunger to learn in a fast paced environment, then we're looking for you.
You have:
- 3+ years of experience in Account Management, Advertising Sales, Marketing Manager, or a similar role (media or creative agency experience is preferred)
- A good understanding of the digital media landscape in the US
- Strong analytical skills and an understanding of how to translate client strategy & objectives into a creative brief
- Experience building basic CPM-based media plans
- Experience working with both brands and agencies alike
- Strong relationship building skills, both with internal stakeholders and with client and agency partners
- An ability to adapt quickly to new systems and processes. Knowledge of ad tools and third party tracking/reporting systems is a plus.
- High level understanding of industry standards on viewability, IVT and data
- You are based in either New York or LA
You also have:
- Great relationship & communication skills. Ability to communicate, collaborate and work effectively in a team, and a confidence in negotiating with clients on calls
- An independent attitude. Comfortable with taking ownership and initiative, including proactively working on self-owned projects
- Project management capabilities, with experience in completing projects with minimal direction and high attention to detail
- A global mindset. WeTransfer has a global sales team (Amsterdam, London, New York, L.A.) and you will need to work across time zones and be open to occasionally travel for work
- Effective and creative problem solving and decision-making skills
- Flexibility. You can work under pressure, are a natural multitasker and can work with tight deadlines
