Job Description

Overit is a strategy-first, data-driven creative agency helping brands evolve, connect, and grow.

We’re hiring a Director of Client Strategy & Growth—a senior leader who brings sharp strategic thinking, strong client leadership, and an AI-forward mindset to modern marketing.

This is a key leadership role within the organization. You’ll guide high-impact client relationships, shape cross-channel strategy, mentor teams, and help define how Overit continues to grow and evolve.

This is a hybrid role based in Albany, NY (minimum three days in-office).

What You’ll Do

Lead Strategic Direction

  • Own strategy across key accounts, ensuring work drives measurable business outcomes
  • Act as a senior advisor to client stakeholders, including executive leadership
  • Guide integrated marketing strategies across brand, content, media, and digital

Drive Growth—for Clients and the Agency

  • Identify and expand opportunities within existing accounts
  • Support new business efforts, pitches, and proposal development
  • Bring proactive ideas that create measurable value

Build and Elevate the Team

  • Mentor account managers and strategists, raising the bar for strategic thinking
  • Create frameworks and processes that improve how we plan, execute, and measure work
  • Foster collaboration across creative, media, and digital teams

Turn Insight Into Action

  • Translate data, research, and performance into clear direction
  • Define KPIs and ensure campaigns are optimized against meaningful outcomes
  • Simplify complex ideas for both clients and internal teams
AI & Innovation Leadership
  • Apply AI tools (ChatGPT, Clause, Midjourney, automation platforms) to enhance strategy, content development, and insights
  • Identify opportunities to integrate AI into workflows across teams
  • Guide internal teams on how to use AI effectively—not just faster, but smarter
  • Evaluate and implement tools that improve efficiency, scalability, and performance



We’re not looking for someone who simply uses AI tools—we’re looking for someone who can apply them in meaningful ways to improve strategy, execution, and results.

What You Bring
  • 7–10+ years in a marketing, digital, or creative agency environment
  • Experience leading multi-channel marketing strategy tied to business outcomes
  • Strong client presence, including executive-level communication
  • Experience mentoring teams and improving internal processes
  • Demonstrated use of AI tools to enhance marketing strategy or execution
  • A clear point of view on how AI is shaping the future of marketing
You Are…

A Strategic Leader – You define direction, not just execute

A Growth Driver – You uncover and create opportunity

A Mentor – You elevate the people around you

AI-Forward – You understand where technology adds value—and apply it

A Partner – To clients, leadership, and your team
