Account Director

Account Director, Motorsports | Lacy Maxwell Experiential

Remote, US

LME is a founder-led experiential and brand activation agency delivering live experiences for some of the world’s biggest brands. Our F1 business is growing fast, and we're now looking for an Account Director to lead a flagship Formula 1 programme.

This is a client-facing leadership role. You’ll be the day-to-day lead and trusted go-to for a senior client who knows the agency side inside out. You’ll own the relationship across a global calendar of activations, from Australia and Japan to Austin, Miami, Las Vegas and the UK.

What you’ll be doing

• Owning a major F1 client relationship and leading the account day to day
• Guiding the client with confidence: knowing when to say yes, when to say no and how to handle the nuances
• Owning budgets, expense tracking and vendor management alongside LME’s producers and internal teams
• Leading by influence across a flat, collaborative team, and helping shape how the motorsports team works as it grows

What we're looking for

• Experience on Formula 1 programmes
• A track record as an Account Director or strong Senior Account Manager on large, high-spend brand accounts
• Confidence owning budgets and working with big-company procurement
• Command and presence with senior clients, with polish and a sense of humour
• Urgency, accountability and the instinct to step in without waiting to be asked
• An entrepreneurial, builder mindset, and someone looking for a long-term home rather than a stepping stone

The details

• Remote, anywhere in the US near a major airport, working US hours
• Up to c.30% travel
• Competitive salary and benefits, including 401(k) plan
