Born and bred in Singapore and fully independent, GOVT Singapore has been around since 2012. Today, we are about 60-people strong, with clients from a variety of industries and markets such as OCBC Bank, Sentosa, Asahi, Puma, Julie’s Biscuits, and more.

We’re driven by a simple, singular objective: To help our clients achieve “firsts” that will drive their business ahead. This has led us to be one of Singapore’s most recognized agencies, as regular winners over the years in Campaign Asia Pacific’s Agency of The Year Awards, being recognized in the World’s Leading Independent Agencies list by Campaign UK and NetworkOne, and winning the Grand Prix in the Entertainment Category in Spikes Asia in 2019.

In addition to our longstanding reputation, our recent accolades include the Independent Agency of The Year Gong in 2024, the Campaign Agency of The Year 2023 (Bronze) for Southeast Asia Brand Experience and Southeast Asia Event Marketing Agency.

But above all – like any good government – we’re all about doing right by our people, helping our clients prosper, and serving the land we’re on. And it all starts with effective and creative work that we’re proud to put out there.

The Role

We are looking for Senior Account Manager to help manage one of the agency’s key clients.

You will be an experienced manager and a skilled communicator, able to build relationships with a range of clients while also managing and mentoring junior team members.

This may be the opportunity for you if you’re looking to elevate your experience in advertising through:
