Senior Account Executive

YAZ Media is a group of five specialist agencies: YAZ Creative, YAZ Social, YAZ Communications, YAZ Production and YAZ Technology. We help brands and institutions be understood by the people they serve, in their language, in their context and wherever attention lives today. Our clients range from growing businesses to Fortune 500 companies, UAE government entities and regional brands. Our briefs range from a single campaign to work that spans several disciplines at once. You'll work alongside strategists, creatives, producers, communications specialists and technologists who expect clear thinking, well-made work and ownership of what you deliver.

The Senior Account Executive works closely alongside the Senior Account Manager to ensure smooth day-to-day management of client accounts. This is a hands-on, execution-focused role: you will coordinate deliverables across internal teams, manage timelines and follow-ups, prepare client-facing materials, and serve as a reliable point of contact for client communications. While the Senior Account Manager leads on strategy and account ownership, the Senior Account Executive ensures everything runs on time, on brief, and on budget.
