Account Manager (Events)

Dayton, NJ

Experience Without Limits. Come shape the future of brand experience.

At Jack Morton, we create, and build, head-turning, smile-inducing, impact driving brand experiences. We exist to redefine what experiential can achieve, helping clients unlock the full value of experiences. 

That takes a team that’s bold, curious, and acts as one - building on ideas, pushing boundaries, and showing up for each other. Here, you’ll do your best work, grow fast, and collaborate across clients, disciplines, and global teams to bring new ideas to life.

This is a place where curiosity drives what’s next, boldness raises the bar, and we win together. Where ownership is expected, egos are left at the door, and the work reflects the people behind it.

Experience without limits — in your work, your growth, and your impact.

We are seeking an Account Manager (Events) to join a dynamic team! In this role, you’ll manage and grow assigned client portfolios, support Account Directors on strategy, and drive execution of all project deliverables. You’ll serve as a key client liaison, ensuring projects are delivered efficiently, on time, and to a high standard of excellence.

What You’ll Do

Client & Project Management

  • Manage multiple mid-size clients and their experiential marketing portfolios.
  • Serve as the primary point of contact for project deliverables and client communication.
  • Collaborate with global estimating, field services, operations teams, and fulfillment centers.
  • Prepare proposals, correspondence, workback schedules, and project plans.
  • Ensure all projects meet deadlines, show rules, and quality standards.
  • Travel approximately 20% to support client activations.

Financial & Operational Responsibility

  • Maintain accurate project and financial records in internal systems.
  • Ensure consistent delivery of ≥40% gross margin on projects.
  • Support estimating, proposals, invoicing, and timely follow-up on unpaid invoices.

Leadership & Collaboration

  • Continue developing your own skill set while contributing to overall team growth.
  • Proactively identify opportunities to strengthen client relationships.
  • Participate in internal brainstorming sessions, sales pitches, and capabilities presentations.

What We’re Looking For

  • Passion for client service and experiential marketing.
  • Experience in event operations, face-to-face marketing, or creative agency environments.
  • Strong organizational, communication, and multitasking skills.
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment.
  • Flexible, solution-oriented, and collaborative mindset.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree (B.A. or B.S.) or equivalent combination of education and experience.
  • 2+ years of experience in account coordination, project management, or similar roles.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office and project management tools.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and business acumen.

Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
