Description
https://www.linkedin.com/jobs/view/4354562324/
Gemba is a leading organisation in Sports and Entertainment across Communications, Insights, Strategy and Data & Analytics.
Gemba’s name is inspired by the Japanese origins of the word, to find the source of the truth. Since 2006 we have demonstrated a passion for understanding fans. In a sport and entertainment world that is becoming increasingly competitive and fragmented, fan insight is critical.
We deliver results for our clients. Whether it be better commercial outcomes or driving greater participation, this is our ultimate proof point, demonstration of shaping a better future for sport & entertainment.
About The Role
Gemba is looking for an enthusiastic Account Executive to support and execute key sponsorship projects across content, social, events, activations, TVCs and more. While it would be beneficial to have a couple of years of experience in an agency, this role could even be ideal for a graduate with any degree of experience in managing campaigns from creative briefs to production delivery keen to kick-start their career in sport and entertainment.
Based in Sydney and reporting to a Senior Account Director, you will be responsible for supporting the day-to-day workflow of client projects, helping to deliver engaging sponsorship campaigns, and effectively managing budgets, timelines and external suppliers.

This role thrives on energy and adaptability. You’ll be juggling multiple tasks and projects, so we need someone who stays cool under pressure and loves the buzz of a busy environment.
Importantly, while we work hard, we believe in having fun too! A sense of humour and a positive, energetic personality will ensure you fit right in with our fantastic team. If this sounds like the perfect match for your skills and personality, we’d love to hear from you
