NEW ROLE: SENIOR ACCOUNT MANAGER

About 53Six 

53Six is a bespoke sports marketing agency working with rights holders, brands and organisations to unlock the power of sport.

We connect fans to brands through creative, content, data and media, and we’re building something ambitious.

About the role 

We’re building a Client Services team known for more than delivery. We’re looking for a Senior Account Manager,  someone who brings rigour, energy and creative instinct into everything they do.

You’ll lead the day to day running of key client accounts, but this isn’t just about delivery. This is about driving momentum, shaping the work and adding value at every stage.

You’ll work across creative, media, production and data, connecting the dots, sharpening outputs and making sure everything lands to the highest standard. 

What you’ll do

  • Own projects end to end, from shaping the brief to final delivery

  • Bring clarity and structure to every stage of the process

  • Keep work moving, anticipating pressure points, solving problems and closing loops

  • Manage integrated campaigns across creative, media and production

  • Refine and elevate creative proposals before they reach the client

  • Present work with clarity, confidence and conviction

  • Act as the connective tissue between clients and internal teams

  • Proactively manage and optimise media activity when it matters

  • Ensure everything we produce is thoughtful and delivered to a high standard, across our creative products, media plans and internal governance materials 

  • Plan and forecast creative and media resourcing to effectively manage demand vs capacity 

  • Work with the Account Director to monitor and track financials

A little about you 

Our Client Services team is defined by four behaviours. This is what great looks like at 53Six:

Bravery: You’re confident and clear in how you communicate. You contribute and challenge. 

Curiosity: You’re plugged into the sports landscape, culture, brands, ideas and trends.
You bring fresh thinking and new energy into the agency.

Resourceful: You bring rigour and momentum and make things happen. You take ownership. You’re organised, proactive and dependable.

Strategic: You understand the why, not just the what. You think beyond the brief and connect the work to bigger goals.

What sets you apart

  • A genuine passion for sport, and a broader interest in brand, product and culture

  • Strong creative instinct, you know what good looks like and push for it

  • Comfortable shaping and honing ideas, not just managing them

  • Experienced influencing creative and media briefs 

  • Confident presenting creative work and media strategy, thinking on your feet

  • Detail oriented but always aware of the bigger picture

  • Someone who proactively brings new trends, references and ways of thinking into the agency

  • Always thinking beyond the brief for our clients, spotting opportunities to delight and surprise 

Where we’re going

We’re growing, and evolving.

While sport is our foundation, we’re increasingly working across adjacent spaces like fan monetisation, so we're looking for people who are excited by that, who bring curiosity and want to help shape what 53Six becomes.
