Job Description
Account Manager
$75,000 - $95,000 a year
SmartBug Media is one of the most respected names in the HubSpot ecosystem — and we've earned it.
We didn't get here by accident. SmartBug has built a reputation that most agencies only aspire to: HubSpot North American Partner of the Year, a fully remote team of specialists who punch well above their weight, and a client base that doesn't just hire us — they stay with us. That last part is the one we're most proud of.
Remote by design and strategic by nature, we've never believed that great work requires a corner office or a campus cafeteria. What it requires is the right people, deeply aligned on outcomes, working with clients who trust them to deliver. That's the culture we've built — one where expertise travels, relationships run deep, and the work speaks for itself.
We're obsessed with client outcomes. Not vanity metrics. Not feel-good reports. Real, measurable growth that makes our clients look like heroes inside their own organizations. When SmartBug is in your corner, your team wins — and that's exactly why our clients keep coming back.
The Account Manager is the primary relationship lead and the “face” of SmartBug for our clients. In this structure, you are liberated from project management and technical execution to focus entirely on client satisfaction, trust, and retention. You serve as the bridge between the client’s business goals and our internal delivery teams.
Your mission is to ensure that the client feels valued, heard, and prioritized. You own the “human” element of the partnership, acting as a high-level advocate for the client internally while managing the commercial health and long-term loyalty of the account externally.
