Senior Account Executive - Social Media (Anime)

About the role

Chain Reaction, an award-winning digital marketing agency based in the GCC and Levant, is looking for a Senior Account Executive to lead the day-to-day management of a major global anime streaming account across Saudi Arabia and the UAE. This is not a traditional support role: you will act as the primary liaison between the agency and the client, owning the relationship, content planning, execution, reporting and the quality of work delivered.

Key responsibilities

• Act as the main point of contact for day-to-day client communication, including status calls and strategic reviews.
• Build strong client relationships, manage expectations and proactively address potential issues.
• Lead monthly content planning around anime releases, MENA cultural moments and platform trends.
• Coordinate with creative and copy teams to develop relevant, audience-focused content, and review it for consistency, accuracy and brand tone.
• Schedule and publish content across social media platforms accurately and on time.
• Stay up to date with anime releases, fandom conversations and trending moments to spot content opportunities.
• Oversee community management to keep a consistent, fan-first, culturally relevant brand voice.
• Identify real-time engagement opportunities and escalate issues when needed.
• Own monthly and quarterly performance reporting, turning data into clear insights and recommendations, and use them to improve future content plans.

Required profile

• 3-4 years of experience in social media or account management, preferably within a regional agency.
• Strong, genuine knowledge of anime culture, including major titles, seasonal releases, fandom trends and MENA communities.
• Proven ability to manage client relationships independently, including expectations and difficult conversations.
• Experience with entertainment, streaming, gaming or youth-focused brands is a strong advantage.
• Excellent attention to detail, organisation and deadline management; ability to handle multiple workstreams in a fast pace.

Required skills

• Full professional fluency in Arabic and English, written and spoken.
• Strong understanding of social media platforms, analytics, content formats and community engagement.
• Collaboration with creative, copy, community and strategy teams.
