We are seeking a Design Account Manager to play a key role in developing our design business and supporting the effective operation of our design team.

• Coordinating the design team, supporting collaboration, prioritization and day-to-day operations.
• Acting as a bridge between clients, the design team and the wider Sigma organization, and helping resolve challenges when needed.

Basic Qualifications

• Strong, independent sales and business development experience.
• Proven experience in acquiring new clients and generating new business.
• Experience in account management and developing existing client relationships.
• Strong understanding of the design industry and design services.
• Excellent written and verbal business English skills.
• Strategic and business-oriented mindset.
• Strong communication and negotiation abilities.
• Ability to work independently and take ownership of the sales process.

• Experience working with or selling UX/UI, graphic design, product design, technical illustration or other design services.
• Up to date knowledge of current design trends and workflows.
• Experience coordinating or leading a design team.
• An extensive professional network within the design, technology or related industries.
• A proven track record of growing existing accounts through upselling and cross-selling.
• A background in an agency, consultancy or other client-focused environment.
• Experience managing complex B2B sales processes.
• Existing relationships with decision-makers and potential clients.
• Exposure to international markets and client relationships.
• An entrepreneurial mindset, with the ability to spot and pursue new business opportunities.
• A proactive, solution-oriented approach to challenges.

We offer

• Scandinavian company culture which means flat structure, quick information flow, open communication, and people in focus.
• Flexible working hours and work-life balance.
• An extra holiday for your birthday, extended parental leave and extra healthcare days.
• Professional development opportunities (Udemy, LinkedIn Learning, hard- and soft-skill trainings, and language learning).
• Top-notch equipment (high-end laptop, 2 monitors + 1 for your home office, mobile phone).
• Referral, loyalty, and performance bonuses.
• Special attention to your health and well-being (private health insurance, sport events, massage, office fruits).
