[Hiring] Account Director @Collier Simon

Role Description

Collier.Simon is hiring an Account Director to serve as the agency's primary presence on a major automotive dealership account. This person moves fast, builds trust from the corporate level down to the store, and ensures creative work actually lands where it matters. This role sits within an inter-agency team supporting a high-volume account and reports directly to the agency President.

The work spans both strategy and execution. This person shapes creative strategy and then drives it through to delivery; translating business direction into market-specific plans, codifying briefs, directing the internal creative team, and partnering with dealership marketing directors and GMs to keep cluster and store-level workstreams moving, and making sure the field always has what it needs.

They build their own decks, run their own projects, communicate clearly, handle volume, and solve problems at the speed retail demands without passing the chaos on to the team. The right candidate earns trust by showing up prepared, responding fast, and delivering on what they promise. Marketing directors and GMs should come to see them not as an agency contact, but as a retail partner who understands their business.
