  • Client Engagement & Delivery
  • Serve as senior sponsor for key accounts, building trusted partnerships with client leadership and ensuring long-term success.

  • Advise clients on web and brand strategies that support both the ongoing optimization of existing websites (performance, UX, accessibility, SEO, analytics) and the development of new, large-scale sites.
  • Oversee delivery of complex web and brand engagements, ensuring excellence across discovery, strategy, design, and development phases.
  • Partner with Client Services leadership to proactively identify opportunities to enhance site performance, scalability, and client ROI.
  • Ensure web and brand solutions are integrated with broader marketing and business objectives, aligning with client growth goals.
  • Financial & Operational Management
  • Manage departmental budget, ensuring strong financial performance across revenue delivery, recurring revenue retention, and contribution margin.

  • Proactively plan staffing and resourcing based on pipeline and active projects, working closely with recruitment and department leaders.
  • Maintain systems that enable efficient project resourcing and cross-team collaboration.
  • Manage vendor and contractor relationships, including partner agencies and outsourced talent.
  • Identify and implement reporting capabilities, tools, and technologies (AI, CRM, analytics platforms) to maximize delivery efficiency and insight.
  • Growth & Innovation
  • Own and achieve an individual new business revenue target, contributing directly to the agency’s growth.

  • Actively participate in new business calls and pitches, helping to win net-new clients and expand relationships within existing accounts.
  • Partner with Sales to identify opportunities, shape proposals, and position Web & Brand services as strategic differentiators.
  • Stay attuned to emerging trends and technologies in web, brand, and digital experience, ensuring offerings remain innovative and competitive.
  • Define KPIs and success measures that demonstrate the value and impact of Web & Brand engagements.
  • What You\ll Bring :

  • 15+ years of experience in digital agencies or related environments, with significant leadership over Wordpress, Drupal, and Shopify websites.
  • Demonstrated ability to deliver personas, user journeys, strategic competitive reviews, and UX audits that inform high-performing websites and brand experiences.
  • Proven track record building and scaling CRO practices with deep expertise in web strategy, UX, and brand design. You have a strong grasp of how insights translate into execution.
  • First-hand experience creating and presenting strategy deliverables with the ability to empathize and problem-solve for clients and teams alike.
  • Strong understanding of waterfall and agile methodologies, and ability to guide teams in applying them effectively.
  • Experience with digital marketing, analytics, personalization, and CRM platforms (e.g., Google Analytics, HubSpot, Salesforce, VWO).
  • Exceptional leadership and team-building skills; proven success in building high-performing, engaged teams.
  • Excellent executive presence and communication skills; confident advising C-suite stakeholders and representing the agency externally.
