Marketing Account Director (Start-Ups)

Who We Are:

Power Digital is an AI-Native Growth Firm built at the intersection of world-class talent and proprietary technology. We help leading and emerging brands grow by combining deep vertical expertise, strategic thinking, and enterprise intelligence to drive measurable business outcomes.

For more than a decade, we have built our business around one belief: the best technology makes great people better. Our teams of strategists, creatives, analysts, and technologists use Omega, our AI operating system, to surface opportunities faster, investigate what is driving performance, and execute approved work with greater speed and precision. Behind Omega is Iris, our proprietary intelligence layer, built on years of real performance data, strategic frameworks, testing, and learnings from across our client portfolio. AI expands the capacity of our people to think, create, solve harder problems, and make better decisions. Human judgment, creativity, and accountability remain central to how we work.

As a people-first firm, we value diversity in backgrounds and experiences. We strongly believe our people and culture are key to our success. We partner closely with our clients as an extension of their teams, working across strategy, execution, and measurement to identify what is truly blocking growth and determine what to do next. Our culture is built on people who are curious, ambitious, accountable, and committed to delivering meaningful results for our clients and for one another.

At Power Digital, we believe the future belongs to teams that combine the best talent with the best technology. We are building that future today.

A day in the life:

You'll own a portfolio of 8–12 Core accounts — early-stage and growth-stage brands that are figuring it out in real time. Some launched via crowdfunding. Some are founder-led with no dedicated marketing team. Some are scaling fast, and the infrastructure hasn't caught up. None of them has a budget to waste.

These clients need a different kind of AD. The Power Circuit work is the same, but what you find is usually more fundamental: weak product-market fit signals, an undefined audience, no measurement baseline, and a media mix built on gut instinct. Prioritization matters more here because you can't fix everything at once, and trying to will burn both the client and the team.

You also need to be comfortable being the most experienced person in the room. The client may not know what good looks like yet. Showing them clearly, without condescension, is a meaningful part of the job.

Responsibilities:

Employ AI technologies to enhance and optimize business processes

Utilize and leverage Power Digital's Nova ecosystem as it relates to your department

Run quarterly Power Circuit reviews — diagnose growth constraints across Business, Audience, Product, Messaging, Channels, and Measurement; build a prioritized roadmap that accounts for what the client can actually execute with their current resources

Own the senior client relationship, which often means the founder directly; QBRs should feel like a board-ready business update, not a marketing recap

Help clients build measurement infrastructure from scratch when it doesn't exist, establish baselines before optimizing against them

Coordinate paid, SEO, content, email, and creative work around a focused account strategy; scope management is part of the job

Identify expansion opportunities that fit the client's stage, don't oversell services a brand isn't ready for

Manage retention and expansion; lead renewals; grow MRR

Build multi-threaded relationships with multiple layers of client contacts so no single point of contact departure puts an account at risk

Ensure daily use of our proprietary technology (Iris and nova), Pulse (client performance and sentiment tool) cadence at 100%, and Power Circuit (our proprietary diagnostic system) compliance across managed ADs

Manage and develop 1–2 direct reports — run regular 1:1s, build development plans, and own their performance reviews

Coach analysts and specialists; many will be working with startups for the first time
