Title: Account Manager, Client Success
Company: LocaliQ, powered by the USA TODAY Network


About LocaliQ
At LocaliQ, part of USA TODAY Co., we help businesses grow by bringing together advanced marketing technology, trusted audience reach, and the expertise to turn it into results. In this role, you’ll work at the intersection of digital marketing, data, and client strategy—helping businesses connect with customers across the full marketing funnel.
You’ll partner with clients to understand their goals, build strategies that combine performance-driven digital solutions with the reach of the USA TODAY Network, and deliver measurable outcomes. This is an opportunity to be part of a team that doesn’t just manage campaigns—we build strategies designed to drive real business growth.


About the Role
The Account Manager, Client Success is a relationship-driven, client-facing role focused on building, maintaining, and growing strong partnerships with LocaliQ clients.
You’ll serve as a primary point of contact for clients after the sale, helping them understand campaign performance, identify opportunities, and make strategic marketing decisions. You’ll work across a broad portfolio of solutions—including search, display, social, email, and O&O digital and print media—to create cohesive marketing strategies aligned to each client’s business goals.
This role sits at the intersection of client relationships, marketing strategy, data analysis, and cross-functional collaboration. You’ll partner closely with Sales, post-sale optimization teams, ad operations, and other internal specialists to ensure campaigns are performing effectively and clients understand the value LocaliQ delivers.
In your first 90 days at LocaliQ, you’ll build a strong foundation by learning our marketing solutions, technology, campaign management processes, and client success model. You’ll develop confidence navigating campaign performance, communicating insights to clients, and partnering with internal teams to address opportunities. As you progress, you’ll take greater ownership of client relationships, lead performance conversations, and proactively identify ways to improve campaign results and strengthen long-term partnerships.

• Strategic Client Impact – Go beyond campaign management by helping businesses understand their marketing performance and identify opportunities for growth.
• Diverse Marketing Solutions – Work across search, display, social, email, analytics, and O&O digital and print media to build holistic marketing strategies.
• Data-Driven Decision Making – Use campaign performance and business insights to make recommendations that directly influence client outcomes.
• Cross-Functional Partnership – Work alongside Sales, optimization specialists, ad operations, and other internal experts to deliver a strong client experience.
• Executive-Level Client Relationships – Build trusted relationships with business owners and decision-makers while serving as a strategic marketing partner.
• Powerful Platform & Reach – Leverage LocaliQ's marketing technology and the trusted scale of the USA TODAY Network to help clients reach more customers.
• Care
