Explanation:
Anyone looking to progress in this career will do so after several years as an *account executive*. Progression is to
*account manager*, managing executives and handling higher profile clients. Most people would spend at least three or
four years at this level before having enough experience to consider moving on to *account director with responsibility for
all account staff and clients. Further progression would be to group account director positions.

Account director=Etat Direktor:
Umfassende Kommunikations-Beratung und zentrale Koordinierung aller Agentur-Aktivitäten für die ihm anvertrauten Etats, inkl. Kostenkontrolle

- Account Executive-Kontakter, Kundenberater:
Betreut selbständig ein oder mehrere Produkte intern und extern. Intern bis zur Agentur-Service-Abteilung und extern bis zur Organisation und Produktion auf Kundenseite.
