Full Time, In-Office Role

Andheri East, Mumbai

Experience: 7-10 years

Immediate Joiners Preferred

Company: A Leading Integrated Digital Media Agency.

We're an integrated digital-first media and marketing company, specialising in organic media, meme marketing, influencer partnerships, and content-led brand solutions, working at the intersection of culture, creators, and communities to help brands build cultural relevance and social-first growth.

This role is specifically for our client on retainer - ChatGPT India.

Role Overview

We're looking for a Group Account Manager to run point on one of our biggest accounts, leading the team that services it end to end. The client should be able to come to you with anything and trust the answer. Your team should be able to bring you a hard problem and walk away with one that's actually useful. And you should be the one flagging the next growth opportunity before anyone has to ask.

This isn't a step-back role. You'll be in the strategy, in the client conversations, and in the day-to-day with your team.

Because of who the client is, real curiosity about tech and AI matters here. You don't need to code, but you do need to genuinely want to understand how AI products work and where the category's headed, because that shows up in the work.

Why This Role Matters

This is one of the most visible accounts in the agency, and how it's run shapes how the rest of us get judged. Do it well and you're not just keeping a major client happy, you're setting the standard other teams get measured against.



Whoever takes this on has real influence over the agency's reputation, its biggest relationship, and the people on their team.

- Earn trust by being reliable, ahead of the brief, and easy to work with
- Turn the client's business priorities into direction the team can actually act on
- Spot chances to grow the account, in scope, formats, or budget, and go pitch them

Manage Escalations & Protect Delivery

Lead & Grow the Team

- Set the bar for how the team communicates, presents, and solves problems

- Build a team structure that can grow with the account

Drive Strategy & Account Growth





- Work closely with creative, strategy, and content to keep the output sharp
- Stay current on AI and tech so your point of view holds up in the room
- Keep a real read on account health, performance, client sentiment, all of it

What We're Looking For

- 7-10 years in account management or client servicing, agency experience required
- Experience running large, complex retainer accounts, ideally with people reporting to you
- Real curiosity about tech and AI, and the ability to get up to speed fast in a moving space
- Strong instincts for managing relationships, with clients and with your own team

- Sharp communication, written and spoken, whether you're talking to a junior client contact or their CMO
