About what. AG

• We're a Zurich-based digital consultancy with 40+ ambitious, kind specialists. We build websites, digital products and growth strategies powered by data and AI, for clients from innovative startups to global brands. Learn more at what.digital.

• The role: You take a business-first, data-driven view of what's holding a client's growth back, use AI to diagnose it faster and deeper than a traditional audit, and turn it into a concrete plan that works. It's a long-term role with variety, autonomy, support and a clear path to grow.

• How we work: You own your growth, and we give you the space to work on yourself. We deliver first-class help to our clients, from start to finish. We focus on real results, not just activity. And we think like entrepreneurs: when we build for clients, everyone wins - our clients, what. and you.

Requirements

What you'll do:

• Be the main point of contact for your clients and build long-term relationships - you think about their business, not just their campaigns.

• Run data and AI-assisted analyses to find growth opportunities and turn them into business cases and new projects.

• Keep an eye on budgets and billing, with support from our finance team.

Key & Essential Skills:

• Ideally 7+ years in a performance agency (not media buying), including 3+ years leading a team of 3+.

• Proven record in client strategy, sales and building data-driven business cases that clients invest in.

What makes you a fit:

• You like taking ownership and seeing things through.

• You give honest feedback, to clients and to us.

• You know when to plan carefully, when to perfect, and when to move fast.

• You think like an entrepreneur: curious, commercially minded, always moving forward.

Perks:

• Beautiful office in Seefeld, Zurich.

• You'll have real responsibility and influence - and a team that has your back. If you see something that could be improved, speak up - we're listening.

• Flexible hours and a flat hierarchy - we're results-oriented and don't micromanage.

• A multicultural team that learns together, including daily hands-on work with AI tools like Claude.

• 25 days holiday plus public holidays.

• Personal development opportunities, e.g. in 2026 we sent 10 people to Tony Robbins' UPW event.

How to Apply:

• Apply via our website with your CV and a 2-3 min intro video in German (e.g. Loom or YouTube): tell us what attracted you to this role and share an example where you helped a client grow or improved something at work.
