We are Cartograph and WE ARE HIRING for an Amazon Account Director! Named one of the Best Workplaces by Inc. Magazine in 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, AND 2025! This is a remote / work-from-home position, though we have an optional co-working space in East Austin.
WHO ARE WE? Cartograph’s mission is to help brands grow products that are better for people and better for the planet. We are a values-driven company that puts our clients first and treats our employees as people before colleagues. We value and emphasize transparency, ownership, initiative, growth, and development.
We are an Amazon-focused agency in the Better-For-You CPG space: you’d find most of our client products at a Whole Foods. Some of our clients include Goodles, Olipop, Rao’s, and Starface. We’re in charge of the top and bottom line on Amazon. We manage the channel for our clients in its entirety from packaging and operations to SEO and advertising.
We're a team of around 70 and growing quickly – in 2021 we were named the 122nd fastest growing company in America and 5thfastest growing company in Texas by Inc.

THE JOB: We have an industry-leading brand management organization with a very strong knowledge and innovation practice. The ideal leader would actively interface with this, both feeding new ideas and ensuring the best ideas are spread across the org.
An Amazon Account Director at Cartograph work to develop and manage a small team of Brand Managers and Specialists and oversee 6-8 brands. This position bridges the gap in providing executive leadership and supports high level strategy to the brands on their teams while still staying involved in the day-to-day execution of the brands. The team acts as the GM for our client's Amazon business and work to improve execution and drive growth on the platform. An Account Manager must feel comfortable driving brand strategy forward through operations and 3PL management, pricing and margin management, forecasting, content/SEO, advertising, and any other items that come up in the process of dealing with Amazon. This position requires continuous learning, creative problem solving, analytics, and flexibility. Account Managers act as the main point of contact with our clients so exceptional client management skills and communication skills are a must.

We’re looking for someone who is excited about working in an organization that cares deeply about not only doing good work but also being good to each other.

➔ Strong organizational skills with exceptional verbal, written, and presentation skills. You should be comfortable communicating complex business challenges and recommendations with C-suite and founder-level stakeholders
➔ Motivation, self-discipline, and dependability. We give our team significant autonomy and responsibility and work remotely, so we're looking for people who have a track record of owning projects and driving them to completion. This role is one of both strategy and execution, not just delegation.
➔ Strong attention to detail, the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment, and a proactive approach to solving problems independently and collaboratively
➔ Advertising, SEO, marketing, or related experience is a strong bonus
➔ Experience with Amazon Seller Central and/or Vendor Central
