Account Manager

Swanky

Remote

🎉 About the Job

At Swanky, we’re not just slinging swag — we’re rewriting the rules of branded merch and how it hits the market. We’re a stylishly chaotic crew of dreamers, doers, and webhook warriors on a mission to make brand experiences unforgettable (and maybe a little sexy).

 

We’re on the hunt for an Account Manager who’s more than just charming on Zoom. You’re strategic. You’re proactive. You make magic happen for clients and keep projects smoother than a jazz sax solo. If you’ve ever looked at a complex order and said, “Heck yeah, let’s go,” we already like you.

 

💼 What You’ll Actually Be Doing (Besides Crushing It):

  • Client Whisperer: Be the main squeeze for your accounts. They’ll come to you with their needs, dreams, and last-minute “can-you-get-this-yesterday” requests. You’ll make it happen — and look good doing it.
  • Relationship Alchemist: Turn casual conversations into long-term partnerships. You’ll build trust with clients, distributors, vendors, and maybe even someone’s mom. You’re just that likable.
  • Project Wizard: Partner with our outside sales reps to brainstorm ideas, quote like a boss, and shepherd projects from “Hmm…” to “HECK YES!”
  • Team Captain Vibes: Lead a squad of Account Coordinators like you’re assembling the Avengers. Support them. Mentor them. Make them laugh occasionally.
  • Problem Assassin: Spot issues before they become disasters. Fix things fast. Keep the chaos at bay.
  • Opportunist (In a Good Way): Help bring in biz that fuels the Swanky machine. You know that “Show me the money” line from Jerry Maguire? Yeah, say that daily. Preferably with jazz hands.
  • Professional Hype Person: Show up loud (but classy) at trade shows, client meetings, and in Slack threads. Your energy should be contagious — in a good way.

 

🧠 Who You Are:

  • A Bit of a Maverick: You’re not here to “clock in.” You’re here to own your work and shake things up.
  • Organizational Jedi: Post-it notes? Color-coded calendars? Whatever your weapon of choice — you’ve got the chaos under control.
  • Born Fixer: You don’t wait for things to break. You sense them trembling and duct tape them back to life before anyone notices.
  • Natural Leader (No Cape Required): You make others better. People want to follow you into battle… or at least into a complicated order entry system.
  • Detail Sleuth: You spot typos from a mile away and can smell an incomplete shipping address like a bloodhound.

 

📦 What You Bring to the Swanky Table:

  • Education: Bachelor’s degree — from somewhere that gave you a diploma and some life lessons.
  • Experience: 1–3 years in sales, account management, marketing, or similar. Bonus points if you’ve wrangled a team or managed fast-moving projects before.
  • Communication Ninja: Whether you’re sending emails, hopping on calls, or presenting to a C-suite, you nail it. Every. Time.
  • Thinky + Feely Brain: You balance logic with creativity like a spreadsheet that also knows how to vibe.

 

🧾 The Nitty Gritty:

  • Salary: $45,000–$70,000 USD per year
  • Type: Full-Time with benefits
  • Start Date: ASAP. Like…today? Tomorrow? Soon.
  • Location: Anywhere in the U.S. where you’ve got Wi-Fi and a decent coffee setup

 

🎊 Why Swanky?

Because we’re doing big things — and having a damn good time while we do it. You’ll work alongside an unreasonably cool team of disruptors, creatives, and strategy nerds. We move fast, we laugh a lot, and we genuinely care about making great stuff with great people.
