Direct message the job poster from Sköna

Come for the creativity. Stay for the culture.

We’re Sköna, a B2B creative powerhouse with offices in San Francisco and Stockholm. We help high-tech brands tell stories that matter—through digital marketing, brand strategy, websites, events, outdoor advertising, and more.

We’re looking for an Account Director who thrives in the fast-paced world of creative agencies. You’ve been in the game long enough to keep your cool—tight deadlines, shifting priorities, and big personalities don’t shake you. Instead, you turn chaos into clarity and make those around you better. Clients trust your strategic insight. Your team values your leadership. And when you speak, people listen.

What It’s Like to Work Here

We love what we do, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously. We’re small but mighty, and collaboration is at the heart of everything. No egos, no silos—just a group of passionate people pushing each other to do great work. We get things done, support each other, and still have lives outside of work.

What You’ll Do

  • Act as a trusted strategic partner, advising clients and proactively bringing ideas to the table.
  • Understand your clients’ business, customers, and competition to craft creative solutions that move the needle.
  • Keep accounts running smoothly—balancing big-picture strategy with daily execution.
  • Oversee multiple accounts, ensuring creative work is on-brand and on-strategy.

Growth & Business Development

  • Identify opportunities to grow accounts through upselling and cross-selling.
  • Negotiate contracts and ensure profitability across accounts.
  • Contribute to new business efforts, helping us land exciting new clients.
  • Team Leadership & Operations

  • Mentor and support account team members, helping them thrive.
  • Drive smart processes that make our work better, not more complicated.
  • Manage resources to keep projects on time and on budget.
  • Requirements

  • 7+ years agency account service experience
  • Min 3 years managing teams of people
  • B2B experience and high tech experience
  • High level of business acumen
  • Excellence in project management
  • BA in Business, Marketing or equivalent
  • 6 Signs That You Are the Right Candidate

  • You are a creative problem solver–you have an entrepreneurial spirit and you act proactively.
  • You have a doggedly curious spirit.
  • You are fun to work with–and you have great people skills.
  • You love design and using creativity as a tool to help elevate brands and drive business growth.
  • You like working in a small environment with a flat organization where everyone’s opinion is respected. In other words, the idea of Team Skona always coming first appeals to you!
  • You embrace discomfort – you think outside the box and are open to new ideas, types of work, and ways of doing things.
  • Salary commensurate with experience
  • 401(k) plan, paid federal company holidays
  • Full medical / dental / vision package to fit your needs
  • Competitive vacation policy
  • Weekly team lunch and snacks provided
  • Dog-friendly office – well-behaved furry friends welcome!
  • Sköna is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate on the basis of race (including traits associated with race, such as hair texture and hairstyles like braids, locs, and twists), color, religion, sex (including pregnancy), gender, national origin, citizenship, age, disability, veteran status, marital status, sexual orientation, or any other protected characteristic or combination of those characteristics.
