Pros
As an account manager, you’re expected to really understand your clients business and operations and proposing suitable solutions to help their business grow. You learn to be answerable to your own proposal to client and not just another coordinator.
It can be demanding because clients move fast and expectations internally are also high. But it forces you to think more and actually advise instead of just following instructions.
Team support is there, especially from backend teams like SEO and performance. If you put in the effort, you’ll learn quite a lot about different industries.
Cons
Not a place to coast, but good if you want to grow beyond basic account servicing.
