The posting

Situation, a full-service agency building passionate communities for live experience-based clients like WICKED on Broadway and The Metropolitan Opera, seeks an Account Director to lead the day-to-day strategy, client relationship, and account operations for a Broadway/live entertainment client portfolio. This role will report to the VP, Accounts and own the media strategy and cross-team execution while managing two Account Executives. The selected candidate will demonstrate strategic client leadership, fluency in sales and business goals, deep knowledge of the Broadway/live entertainment landscape, and strong collaborative partnership skills.

What You’ll Do

The Account Director serves as the client's day-to-day strategic lead, translating their sales and business goals into media, creative, and partnership recommendations grounded in real knowledge of the Broadway/live entertainment market. This role owns the client relationship end-to-end — from budget management and pacing to coordinating with the client's external creative agency partner — while managing two Account Executives and partnering closely with the internal teams who lead day-to-day production execution.

Our office is located in midtown Manhattan and we are currently working in-office 4 days per week, and 1 day remote.

Sample Day-to-Day Responsibilities

  • Act as the client's primary strategic point of contact, identifying needs and proactively recommending solutions
  • Maintain a working understanding of the client's sales goals and priorities, translating them into marketing recommendations
  • Bring informed Broadway/live entertainment industry context — competitive shows, market trends, audience behavior — to client conversations
  • Serve as the primary liaison with the client's external creative agency partner, ensuring alignment and smooth handoffs
  • Build detailed budget breakdowns and deliver biweekly pacing reports, ensuring media invoices are paid before media runs
  • Direct media strategy in partnership with internal media resources, tying recommendations back to client sales goals
  • Manage and develop two Account Executives, including regular one-on-ones and growth planning
  • Provide quality oversight of production and project execution

Requirements

  • 5+ years of account management experience in advertising, marketing, or a related agency environment, including both digital and traditional media
  • Experience managing client relationships for entertainment or live experience-based brands (Broadway experience a plus)
  • Demonstrated ability to translate client business/sales goals into marketing strategy
  • Experience managing and developing direct reports
  • Strong budget management skills, including pacing reports and media billing processes
  • Experience coordinating with external partner agencies or vendors
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities autonomously in a fast-paced environment
  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience

Benefits

We offer a competitive base salary and a range of benefits and perks:

  • Salary range: $110K - $130K per year, commensurate with experience
  • Health care plan (medical, dental, and vision)
  • Retirement plan with employer match
  • Life and disability insurance
  • Generous paid time off package that includes vacation, sick, “life happens” days, birthdays, summer Fridays and public holidays
  • Paid family leave
  • Cold brew coffee, snacks and fresh fruit
  • Wellness resources

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
