Do you approach creative work with an organizational mindset?

Groupon’s mission is to become the daily habit in local commerce and fulfill our purpose of building strong communities through thriving small businesses by connecting people to a vibrant, global marketplace for local services, experiences and goods. In the process, we’re positively impacting the lives of millions of customers and merchants globally. Even with thousands of employees spread across multiple continents, we still maintain a culture that inspires innovation, rewards risk-taking and celebrates success. If you want to take more ownership of your career, then you're ready to be part of Groupon.

The Digital Content Marketing team is a large group of in-house creatives and creative ops professionals who support all the branded creative marketing and merchandising needs for Groupon globally. We work to create a brand people get excited about, for both customers and our clients across the company, through visual design, content marketing, and photos and videos from our in-house studio.

As the Senior Creative Account Manager, you will be responsible for driving alignment with cross-functional partner to ensure that the creative team’s marketing output aligns to business needs within scope and budget. You’ll also act as the primary point of contact between partners and the in-house agency, resolving issues, managing communication, and driving prioritization of projects to ensure completion.

We're a "best of both worlds" kind of company. We're big enough to have resources and scale, but small enough that a single person has a surprising amount of autonomy and can make a significant impact. We're curious, fun, a little intense, and kind of obsessed with helping local businesses thrive. Does that sound like a compelling place to work?

• Lead day-to-day communication between agency and partners
