Our clients include significant tournaments, national sporting bodies, clubs and brands.

You will have a significant network and have the ability to continuously expand that network. You will actively promote KOJO working in conjunction with the internal marketing team, always searching for new and innovative ways to build awareness and organically educate the industry on our business.

At KOJO, how we do business is as important as the business we do. KOJO operates under a ‘one business’ approach focusing on collaboration between our services to offer a unified offering to clients. It will be an important part of the role to monitor how the business is working and actively remove barriers to this approach. The role will require you to contribute and lead internal team projects and tenders, working closely with other business areas, such as creative, strategy, content, digital, event, technical and motion teams.

This role involves non-traditional hours, including early mornings, late nights, weekends, and holidays. Flexible and transparent schedules are managed on a rolling basis, considering event timings and stadium requirements for rostered days off.

You’re a customer-focused Account Manager/Senior Account Manager with demonstrated experience in managing and growing client accounts, ideally in a live events, event planning and/or live sports presentation setting.

The role requires a high energy, entrepreneurial mindset, strategic thinking, deep understanding of our services and the sporting and brand activation industry and a love of identifying and securing new business.

You'll thrive in a fast-paced agency setting, going the extra mile under tight deadlines. It is important that you have the ability to apply problem-solving skills, be able to juggle multiple tasks at once and have close attention to detail. People should love to work with you because you are caring, genuine and positive even in the toughest of situations, always representing KOJO’s values.

You’re interested in growing your own career, and the people around you, and (ideally) LOVE sport. Previous experience in Events and/or PR highly regarded, though not essential.
